This patient wanted to rejuvenate his appearance by achieving an aggressive hairline restoration with a UGraft procedure. To achieve the fullness that this patient wanted, Dr. U harvested grafts from the beard regions, the scalp and the nape.
Using Beard Hair For Aggressive Hairline Restoration
The beard can serve as an abundant source of additional grafts. Not all patients have enough follicles on the scalp to achieve their ideal result. Therefore, they may benefit from the use of non-head hair sourced from other parts of the body such as the face and neck.
