PANINE, MD- Chicago Hair Transplant Clinic- FUE Hair Restoration Surgery 2,815 Grafts

[Vladimir Panine, MD]

This 56-year-old gentleman had a hair loss pattern similar to a class 5v on the Hamilton Norwood hair loss scale. His goal was to rebuild his hairline and add density to the frontal 1/2 of his scalp. After establishing his medical history and understanding the progression of his hair loss, I diagnosed his condition as Androgenetic Alopecia (male pattern baldness), ruling out any other possible dermatological or medical conditions which can cause hair loss. I wanted to reconstruct a hairline that would be suitable for his age and also leave enough donor hair to address his crown at a later time. A total of 2,815 grafts were used with FUE method. I used a significant amount of single hair follicular units which allowed me to create a very natural hairline. This action will allow him to comb his hair without anyone detecting that he has had anything done. These are his results 9 months post-op and his results will continue to improve over the next 3-6 months. The patient is planning to follow up with another procedure to address the crown at a later time. He is very happy with his results.
