This fellow walked in 50 weeks out from 2700 grafts to rebuild his frontal 1/3. Shown are intraop pics, 1 week, 1 month and current pics. I think he still has a little more thickening to go.
His scar is virtually undetectable and with that wirey, unkempt, hairstyle, he is an ideal patient. Left to my own preferences, I’d have brought that hairline down another inch, but he was really concerned about too big of a change OR a bad result low on his forehead.
Like most guys however, he was fairly frustrated at 6 months when nothing was happening…except fighting tropical diseases in Southeast Asia so he couldn’t come by for reassurance. He said things started to grow only a few months ago…so I think he’s a bit slower filling in than the average. Unfortunately his travels rarely allow him to stop by, but perhaps we’ll get more pics next summer.
