Doctor's Comment
Before accepting anyone for procedure, the first question I
always asked is, "Why he/she wants a
hair transplant
right at this moment?" The second question is, "Can I meet
his/her expectation?"
Someone who appears on stage need to look young and
energetic. He/she would require a very low
hairline
with high density coverage. Restoring the temporal hairline
is often necessary. On the other hand, Rick is an interior
designer. We would like to maintain his professional image.
Moreover his donor density is rather low with too many
single hair ( see chart ). We have to ensure his new look
will last him into his 60's or 70's. We anticipated that
Ricky's
hair loss
at the top will deteriorate with time. Some good quality
hair must be left for future use. Ricky agrees on a more
conservative approach.
In hair transplant "Density is King". Any less than 35
grafts per square cm would be perceived as "thin". 50 to 55
grafts per square cm is usually required for the hairline.
We have to remember that hairline is the outer perimeter of
a circle'. Lowering the hairline by 1cm would consume up to
600 grafts. So we set the hairline a bit higher to limit the
area for dense packing. It is more realistic to conver Ricky
from a Class V into a Class III, not a Class II.
I think his result is quite acceptable just for 2,104
graft.。 More attention was to place the grafts in the right
angle and direction to look natural. Even his hairdresser
can't tell he had a hair transplant. To me a natural looking
result is the more important concern in any hair transplant
procedure.
