Dr Paul Shapiro, frontal half with 2528 FU, 6 month results
Permalink   


This 43 year old male came in for a 6 month follow up exam.  He was a good candidate for a 3,000 + Follicular Unit case, but unfortunately he had poor donor of 70 FU sq.cm and a tight scalp.  I removed a strip that was 28.5 cm long.  I first took out 7.5 cm of a 1.4 cm wide strip in the middle and then took out 21 cm at the decreased width of 1.2 cm wide.  I focused on the front half of his scalp knowing that I would not get 3,000 FU.  
The total yield was 2528 FU.   The hair count was as follows:
1 hair FU  754 Hairs    754
2 hair FU 1277 Hairs  2454
3 hair FU  448 Hairs  1344
4 hair FU    99 Hairs    396
Total Hair 2528 Total Hairs 4948

I did not take any side view photos before the surgery so there are no before and after side comparisons.   I also did not take any immediate post op photos but he did let me shave the front ˝ of his scalp.
