"How A Hair Transplant Looks a Decade Later"

[Billena]

This patient underwent a hair restoration surgical procedure with Dr. Wesley just over 10 years ago. As he was a revision of a prior surgery and desired more density and a healthier looking hairline, a combination of FUT and FUE were performed.

With the FUT strip yielding only 1283 grafts due to the tightness of the scalp, an additional 748 grafts were harvested with FUE (both scalp and beard) in order to improve the overall fullness.

The patient returned to see Dr. Wesley about a decade after the procedure was performed and can be seen in the accompanying images.

Fantastic. He's clearly very fortunate to not have had a need for another hair transplant. Fingers crossed I stay that lucky.

A few questions, out of curiosity: Do you know how many grafts he's had total counting his first procedure? Have you been surprised at his lack of further hair loss over the past 10 years, or was it pretty clear from the beginning that this revision was going to be enough to last this long? Do you think he's in the clear going forward? Is he on medication to keep his hair loss from progressing?
