A large part of our practice is devoted to helping patients who have unsatisfactory results from old technology achieve the natural-looking results available today. By transplanting 1-2 hair grafts at the hairline, the old grafts can be concealed within a softer, more natural-looking, reconstructed hairline, eliminating the “plug” look.

BEFORE

This patient presented himself to our practice with a result from a procedure using old technology. His hair line was very pluggy, making it difficult to style let alone conceal.

AFTER

What a difference a year makes! With 1630 follicular units (597 singles, 1028 doubles, 5 threes) there has been a great transformation in density and naturalness.

This is another example of outdated hair transplant technology performed in the early 1990's.  In this case, as with most revision cases, previous donor scars are removed and/or improved while harvesting new follicular units. This result below is after 1229 follicular units, of which 662 are singles and 567 are duos. A total of 1796 hairs were transplanted. At 7 months, the hairline is already much more natural, softer and fuller appearance.
