    By Dr. Robert Bernstein / Results after 5,917 Follicular Unit Grafts

    Bernstein Medical - Center for Hair Restoration Patient SPB had plugs transplanted too low on his frontal hairline. The surgery was performed in England many years ago and since that time SPB wore a hairpiece in public. Prior to the first hair transplant session, I excised 22 of the most visible large grafts. I then transplanted 2,853 follicular units (with the results shown in the after first session photo). Just before his second hair restoration session I excised an additional six plugs, removed some pitting and transplanted an additional 1,923 follicular unit grafts. A third session was performed using an additional 1,141 grafts. The results, after three hair transplants totaling 5,917 follicular unit grafts.
