Procedure detail
This hair restoration patient is a 26 year old male with AA affecting the
bilateral temples, hairline, frontal forelock and midscalp. In addition, there
is significant miniaturization affecting the crown as well. The patient has
elected not to utilize finasteride. Our plan is to recreate a conservative
hairline with significant recession so as to accommodate future loss and reserve
grafts for the reconstruction of the midscalp area. 2402 FU total, 828 one's;
1489 two's; 85 three's. Tricophytic closure.
Bald class
Norwood class 2A.
The class A variation of the Norwood scale is a slightly different and less common progression of hair loss. The main differences are that the hairline recedes back uniformly, without leaving an island of hair in the middle, and there is no bald area at the vertex. Instead, the hairline progresses directly from front to back.
