ArochaAngel4247 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 This patient in his mid-50’s came in with complaints of diffuse thinning from the hairline to the crown area. Dr. Arocha performed a 2500 manual FUE procedure on this patient. The after images were taken a year and half after his procedure.

Senior Member Mycroft Posted January 30, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted January 30, 2020 Looks like there's some nice improvement in coverage throughout the scalp. Were grafts placed all over or was the work only in the frontal third or so? Perhaps medication also factored in. That's a lot of ground to cover with only 2500 grafts considering the pre-op state of the hair, but it's shocking how much of a difference that has made for his facial frame. This one must have been carefully planned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one must have been carefully planned out. Great question. Dr. Arocha placed grafts in the front half. He believes that the improvement you see in the crown would be due to the medication.
