Senior Member TC17 Posted April 28, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted April 28, 2011 I realize this patient was very bald and he "only" had 3,680 grafts transplanted, but I'd still expect a much better result. In the before photos he looks like a bald man, and in the after photos he looks like a bald man with a bad comb over. At least the scar doesn't look bad.

Regular Member LUV2PLUG Posted April 29, 2011 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 29, 2011 (edited) TC17 I certainly understand that this pt does not have a full head of hair. There are limitations, first and foremost a pt’s budget, donor hair, diameter of hair shaft, so on and so forth. Given the result thus far, we believe his transplant looks natural and has good growth. The patient is happy and is coming back to do more. He fully understood prior to his surgery that he would need more than one procedure to achieve good coverage. We do give suggestions on hair styles although our suggestions are not always taken! Sorry TC17 we didn’t impress you now, but hope to do so in the future! Edited April 29, 2011 by LUV2PLUG Found typos ---- I am Dr. Ross's Head Nurse and over 14 years transplant experience.

Senior Member Spanker Posted May 2, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted May 2, 2011 Yeah, the dude kinda has crazy hair, and I do not know if that gives the HT a worse appearance or not. \Not crazy about this HT, but it could partly be because of the cut and the lowish amount of grafts for the area that was covered. Hopefully his next HT really makes it all come together. I am an online representative for Dr. Raymond Konior who is an elite member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians.

Senior Member Anouar Posted May 2, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted May 2, 2011 I don't think this ht was planned well or the grafts didn't all grow. All he has now is a combover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
