Patient profile and the challenge

A patient with thinning across the front and top of the scalp

A male individual was experiencing hair thinning across the top and front of the scalp.

The patient presented with thinning hair across the top and frontal regions, requiring a customised treatment plan to achieve maximal coverage and density in a single surgical session. The challenge was to preserve the existing hairline without lowering it and focus on enhancing density within the current boundaries. The procedure included extending the coverage to the mid-scalp area for a cohesive and natural result.

Hair Transplant Strategy and combined approach

Dr Bonaros's approach

A collaborative decision was made with the patient to retain the current hairline height and concentrate on maximising graft utilisation to enhance density within the existing boundaries. During a Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) transplant, Dr Bonaros strategically allocated 1,814 grafts (4,752 hairs) to extend hair coverage all the way back to the mid-scalp.

End Results

The result at 12 months

The patient achieved significant restoration of the hairline and mid-scalp. The grafts were carefully distributed to achieve a natural-looking density that drastically improved his hair’s appearance.

A note on this case

True artistry in hair restoration isn't just about knowing how to design a new hairline - it is knowing when the best course of action is to simply restore the volume and density of the one you already have.
