Procedure detail
This patient in his 20's was particularly bothered by his hair loss as
often is the case with young patients. When evaluating a patient for
surgery, Dr. Hasson not only assesses the cosmetic benefit but also what
the overall effect can be on a persons life who is suffering
emotionally from his or her hair loss. In this case not only was the
physical transformation quite remarkable but maybe even more impressive
was the positive impact getting hair back had on this patient's life.
These types of cases are often the most rewarding for Dr. Hasson as he
is able to make such a profound life altering impact. Cases such as
these are one of the main reasons Dr. Hasson choose to get into the hair
restoration business. This patient with his renewed confidence and
sense of well being is now thriving in his new career.
The first surgery consisted of 5245 grafts with 1491 being singles, 3321
doubles, 433 3-4 hair grafts. The significant cosmetic impact was
realized after the first surgery but as sometimes is the case, the
patient after seeing the result wanted to take his result to the next
level. The second surgery slightly lowered the hairline while adding a
little density to the mid scalp and crown. This consisted of 3119 grafts
of which 869 were singles, 1977 doubles, 273 3-4 hair grafts. This
result depicted with styling products in the hair is 8 months post-op
from the second procedure.
Bald class
Norwood class 3A
The Norwood Class A patterns are characterized by a predominantly front to back progression of hair loss. These patterns lack the connecting bridge across the top of the scalp and generally have more limited hair loss in the crown, even when advanced.
