Baldness And Scarring After Strip Surgery – A Cautionary Tale : This video shares the story of a patient who underwent hair transplants using the traditional strip surgery approach. The clinic which performed it used 1,800 grafts. Unfortunately, that clinic’s strip method did not help his hair loss. He is unhappy with how hairline turned out, the baldness that remained on his head and the scarring. Worse, the strip mining approach decimated his follicles, leaving him with not enough head hair to fix or undergo another traditional strip procedure. He turned to Dr. Umar for help.
Baldness And Scarring After Strip Surgery – Fixing The Problem
Hybrid Donor Pool – Grafts From the Beard and Scalp
The patient underwent three surgical sessions. Using his signature UGraft advanced FUE hair transplantation. Dr. Umar extracted a donor supply consisting of the following combination of graft types:
(1) beard hair: 3800 grafts
(2) nape hair: 1500 grafts
(3) scalp hair: 500 grafts
His operation targeted the following recipient areas:
(1) hairline
(2) temples
(3) frontal scalp
(4) mid scalp
(5) crown
His improved coverage gave him a much more youthful look with a rather flattering facial framing that was able to be achieved. This was of course due to the abundance of follicles that was possible through the use of body hair.
