Procedure detail
This local Vancouver patient was around 30 years old when he came to see us regarding his hair loss. As evidenced in the before and after photos he was a good candidate for hair restoration and a significant cosmetic benefit was expected. He had previously taken Proscar with no issues but stopped. Dr. Hasson felt a restart of the medication would be a good to preserve as much of the existing hair as possible and the patient agreed. The result depicted is 1 year post-op and required 5266 grafts. 1334 singles, 3521 doubles, 411 3-4 hair grafts. The strip was 30 cm long and varied from 1.5 to 2 cm in width.
His co-workers were informed from day one he was undergoing a hair restoration procedure and were eventually very impressed with the result.
Bald class
Norwood class 4
Characterized by further frontal hair loss and enlargement of vertex, but there is still a solid band of hair across the top (mid-scalp) separating front and vertex.
