This patient with straight, medium fine hair had presented a Norwood class 3A pattern when I first met with him years back. His first hair transplant surgery was 1927 grafts, and while it gave him a hairline that he had been missing for years, he decided to have another procedure (of 2222 grafts) a year later to fill it out a bit more. No further procedures are planned.

After (4149 grafts total over 2 procedures):
Before:
Although the work is impressive, for a Norwood Class 3A and with over 4,000 grafts, this gentleman still appears to have receded hairline. Perhaps his having straight, medium fine hair might have something to do with it. With this type of MPB, I would have expected a much more youthful and dense hairline. However, based on the pictures, the work looks natural.
Man, you sure changed this guys life. Amazing work.
I have to agree with Ray. With that many grafts I would expect a lot more density. Looks more like 2,500 grafts. I am sure this gentleman is still very pleased with his new look.
I had about 4000 grafts put up in the front area like this except in a smaller area. But, I still want more. You definitely don’t get the density you would think with those numbersWho can ever have enough hair though?
