This patient experienced extremely poor growth and the dreadful after effects from the mid 80’s plug procedures. The patient resorted to wearing a hat or hair piece for all public appearances. Prior to CIT treatment, the patient underwent antiquated hair surgeries that resulted in extensive scarring and rows of misangled, large grafts. To worsen the problem this individual experienced additional hair loss, further exposing the plugs and scars. These disabling effects of the prior hair transplants, the treatment plan was to transfer 3950 CIT “non-strip” grafts in one session (sitting) at our hair restoration center in Atlanta, GA. The treatment plan was to transfer 3950 CIT “non-strip” grafts at our hair restoration center in Atlanta, GA. The objective of the CIT session was to create coverage over the front, top, and crown area. Additionally, the hyper-dense plug grafts on the hairline were de-bulked with CIT and the resulting follicular units were redistributed. Even though the crown could use a slight “touch-up” for more density, the patient now enjoys a much more aesthetically appealing result. Since the goal has been met, the long-time anticipated ability to lose the hat is now a reality that will improve the patient’s quality of life.
