Body hair Transplant 7000 grafts : Dr U utilized his signature UGraft Revolution, ( body hair transplant 7000 grafts) and artistry to transform the life of this patient who had lost all hope. His story: Initially, he tried to restore his hair by undergoing strip surgery as well as scalp reductions. His first surgery before Dr Umar produced poor growth yield. Likewise his subsequent procedures before Dr Umar failed to create desired results. He was also in dire need of strip surgery repair. Not only did he continue to have a receded hairline and temples, but his scalp was also marked by
(1) deep, striated and noticeable scars
(2) harsh hairline that he wanted to soften and modify to create the high, natural and mature looking hairline sported by singer, Bono.
(3) slot formation in the crown caused by deformity from scalp reductions
With each surgery, the number of head donor follicles left of the head dwindled. This remaining quantity was not enough to cover all the areas that the patient wanted to target.
However, through the option of a body hair to head surgery, new options became available. In order for this type of body hair transplant procedure to be successful, specialized punches need to be used since non-head hair follicles grow almost parallel to the skin’s surface.
