Procedure detail
This delightful lady is in her late 60's and came to see me about restoring her hairline. She reported that she always had a high hairline, and showed me childhood photos demonstrating this. But over the last 10 years, her hairline had begun to recede even more from female pattern hair loss. Her donor area was about average for what we see in our female patients, only about 50-60 FUs/cm2, mostly 1s and 2s. We harvested as much as we could get by strip, getting 2,807 FUs ( 1-736, 2-1594, 3- 441, 4-36, total hairs = 5,391). She stopped by the office monthly so we could take photos documenting her progress. Her last visit was at 14 months post op.
