Hope for doubleidemnity (and anyone for that matter) for a future transplant

[whatintheworld]

If this guy can get a transplant, anyone can..

Yes, the crown will remain bald, but I think anyone can agree for a Norwood 7 with bad donor, this will be a dramatic improvement.

For some reason this website messes with the URL intentionally, just add another r between hair and restoration, and and n after restoration and network to go to the proper web page.

For the technically unsavvy

Dude is going for the tonsure. Not sure if a few whispy hairs around an island of baldness will be aesthetically relevant tbh. Especially considering the investment. But more power to him. Will be much easier to wear a piece as well

 

[KevinEdEddEddy]

Idk how it will turn out for him. I wish him the best and all, but guy should just shave it at this point. I am going to be NW7 myself and that is why I forgone the thought of hair transplant, it's just gonna be too hard to maintain and I wanted peace from hairloss which I achieved

 

[justinbieberscombover]

Interesting. I bet he is gonna look better, "just shave it" bros will be upset.

They got 5300 grafts from the head it seems so I think he'll still have 1k-2k grafts left to use for the crown, which won't fill it of course but will give it some hair.

 

[doubleindemnity]

I would have had a result like that but it would have been expensive for a bald crown. I was ready to go for it but then had a change of heart regarding the crown and the fact that it would be 50/50 scalp and body hair. Also, over 5000 grafts from the head is not weak donor.

 

[whatintheworld]

They actually did 4000 from the donor area and 1300 from the beard.

The post op density looks good and I think with a little bit of hair fiber the guy will have a day and night improvement from where he was.

Later they can add some to the crown to make it look thin/balding but that is much more forgivable when the front is good.

The only point is well he doesn't have DUPA, but he does have retrograde alopecia with dipped lateral humps and a crown down into the Norwood 7 region so the only worse candidate with be straight up DUPA /donor miniaturization in the entire Norwood 7 area.

Ah well in that case he'll have at least 2k grafts to use for the crown which gives thin coverage but it's way better than the crown being slick bald.

I think 5000 certainly is, most elite FUE surgeons can get 8000 grafts or so out of an average donor. Below average you are looking at 6000 and above average 10,000+.

Then it's below average donor, not weak. I was told 2000-3000 scalp grafts. That's weak donor.

Who did you consult?

The only way this is possible is if you have DUPA.

I do. I have thinning around the nape and in the NW6 area. Even with my system, I can't take the back and sides down to a 3 guard. In fact I will probably have scissor cuts only. I consulted with many and it was a similar assessment. They can give me way more grafts, but only by using beard and body hair.

Is your donor even worse than this guys?

Doubleindemnity would just say, that this man has exceptional hair for his age and most of us had already wished for such a strong hairlock at age 14.

Incredible. Look at that crown.

But we don't see his donor. He says poor but the numbers suggest average. It says


Total Number of Grafts: 12156 (3276 FU From Beard AND 1065 FU From Chest).

That gives over 7000 grafts from the scalp, right? So that's average donor.

Edit: I am looking from an assessment that I got from a very highly regarded FUE surgeon in Belgium and it says 2500-3000 grafts, and me being a poor candidate due to low crown loss and low lateral loss. You will find it very hard to find a legit poor donor person with a good hair transplant because these people rarely get a hair transplant.

I saw a pic where you had a grown out horseshoe and it looked pretty thick, not like any significant thinning or anything. You sure you haven't misinterpreted what the docs said?

Also, it is just one doctor's opinion.

What is poor for the doctor he went to may be average for another doctor. This is a rapidly evolving field actually, particularly as FUT slowly fades out and goes the way of the dinosaur.

 

[whatintheworld]

We actually see his donor with quite high resolution images. This is just one. By all means it is a diffused out donor that looks pretty weak, and with the lateral humps dipped into the Norwood 7 area.

I personally consulted 7 or 8 surgeons before my procedure. Multiple said I wasn't a candidate and I had DUPA in my donor. Some, who are very highly regarded, said that I had maybe 5,000 grafts available. Another one said I had over 10,000 grafts available and showed me high resolution microscopic photos of my donor to see the thickness caliber.

Remember, medicine is an evolving field. Technology, methods, ideas about what is possible, all change over time.

Who the f*** gives a f*** that the crown is bald if you have normal hair on top of your head ?
Thats the most important hair on your body and its the most susceptible to falling off. FUckling dogshit human anatomy,.
