Case 1501 - Hair Transplant Consultation

Wednesday, December 20. 2006

Dear Doctor:

My goal is to fill in the temples and temple points with around 40-50 cm2 density (or whatever would achieve "fullness" with my hair characteristics).  thanks for the help!

Age:35 years old.
Medications: propecia for 6 months
Prior surgery: none
Family history: unavailable
Hair diameter: average
Hair density: average
Wave: straight

Questions 
 
1. Am I a good candidate for hair transplant?
 
2. Which method is more suitable for me, FUE or STRIP?
 
3. How many grafts will I need to accomplish my goals? Can this all be done in 1 session?
 
4. Do I need to shave either the donor or recipient site for the procedure?
 
5. How soon can I return to work after the procedure without people realizing that I have work done?
 
6. Do I need to worry about shock loss given that I still have a good amount of hair left?
 
Thanks.
