Dr. Carlos K. Wesley: $aving$ with a Conservative Crown $ession

[Billena]

Numerous recent threads highlight patient concerns regarding the nature of graft counting as follicular unit (FU) numbers (and, in turn, prices of larger sessions) rise. Patients may understandably "feel the pinch" when charged per graft for 3000+ FU megasessions. On occasion, patients may also benefit from a much more conservative session targeting the area of most cosmetic importance.

This 50-year-old man had taken Propecia for years and it simply wasn't working for him. Instead, he opted for a 1472-graft follicular unit transplantation (FUT) procedure with our team to cover his thinning crown. After one year, this conservative session provided a light coverage that preserved plenty (of grafts, etc.) for his future.
