Great thread!

Check this guy: http://imgur.com/a/hyVtt#0

He was Norwood 6 and now almost 0!! He was one of the clients i saw live before deciding to go to DHI.

A very decent link Granastasis
Thanks for posting but, Im not sure that that patient would have been defined as a NW6. He seemed to have coverage albeit thinned.

Hey Chuck (35YrsAfter), could you take a look at those before/after images and give us your thoughts on the patients hair loss prior to the surgery?
Thanks..

From what I see in the photos, he got good growth. I'm sure he's happy. The whorl looks natural in the photos. Didn't see a mention of age. Age is a very important consideration regarding hairline height. If he is 40+ I believe he will be in much better shape down the road. If he's in his twenties, he will undoubtedly lose more hair so the use of singles on top is critically important to a natural appearing result as his hair loss progresses. Multiple hair grafts, even twos can stand out when native hair is lost. I see some twos near the hairline which shouldn't be a problem if his hair stays dense and combed forward.

Not a NW6 but what great work by Dr Panine (Chicago).

Doubles can be easier hid "if" the commencement of the newly constructed hairline is done in only singles. It's when doubles or even triple hair grafts are used in commencing the hairline that they really stick out visually speaking.

And the color contrast is critical as well. The more wider the hair color to scalp complexion is, the more noticeable the larger grafts are and the angulations as well.

Any grafts above the single hair graft should be at least 1/2 cm above the start of the hairline if not further.

Again, not a NW6 BUT what great work by Dr Jerry Cooley !!!

Thanks for those results Artista, they have the same degree of hair loss as me, though they may me twice my age .

18 days to go before my first FUE as a NW5. I hope my results will fit in here in a few years.

Wow Fred970 !
I wish you the BEST luck ..Im sure that you will be AOK!
Can you mention which doctor you had decided to go with?

[Artista]

By the way Fred and all else..
Check out my friend Bobman's blog page regarding his hair transplants.
http://bobmans-hair-transplant.blogs...t_archive.html

Bob's experience is a GREAT example of what a NW6 actually COULD have done by a qualified and experienced doctor..
like Hasson & Wong.

Most of you know of him-He is very well known member of our hair loss community!
He just happens to be a very good friend of mine too.
I can state as fact that those 'after' photos were NOT enhanced nor altered to make it look better.
Ive seen his hairline in person because he IS my friend. We dont live too far away from each other.
(by the way-he will be coming to our house-warming party this summer)

Hasson & Wong did a fantastic job on his scalp. This just goes to show that a doctor also must have artistic endeavor when treating a patients hair loss.

Now the only things that have stopped me from having had a ht is--
1) I started using Finasteride almost 10 months ago-(so far so good)
2) I will be a phase test patient of Dr Wesley's Pilofocus advancements.
To all my brothers out there..STAY STRONG.. I feel that this will be a good year for us all. If you decide to have hair transplant surgery..do not go by who is cheapest. Bobman didn't and he is a very happy and satisfied man for it to this day.

Thanks for this example.

I'm going with Dr. De Reys, I don't know if you've heard of him .

[Artista]

I think I have seen that name before Fred..where is he based ?

[fred970]

Not far from Antwerpen. He was the lead surgeon of the prohairclinic in Belgium before.

He has some astounding results, and uses a very small punch .

I noticed that the link I had provided on my last comment didn't go through well..here it is!!

Hi Fred,

What is your donor density like on the sides and back? How many grafts do you have available via FUE?
