NP - Dr. Umar's patient, 1500 FUE, 5 Months Update

Wednesday, February 28. 2007

Dr Umar mentioned the following about my case:

"Patient Np underwent ~1500 scalp FUE at my clinic ~5 months ago. A follow up visit last week presented some photo opportunities.

As mentioned in the above link, even though the patient wanted his hairline advanced, “we elected to reinforce the frontal scalp and graft the strip scar. Several peaks were created to give the impression of hair line advancement. This was all done with ~1500 FUE grafts.”

This strategy for a more subtle goal was adopted in recognition of:

1. Poor donor characteristics (less density = less supply)
2. Lack of body hair supply to fall back on in the event of hair loss progression."
