Severe Baldness UGraft FUE Hair Transplantation Repair Using 10,000 grafts

The patient presented in this video is a 54-year-old physician who began experiencing crown and frontal hair loss in his 20s. He underwent two generic scalp reductions, hair flap surgeries and a hair transplant to the frontal area of his head from a Los Angeles hair restoration clinic. Unfortunately, his traditional hair transplant turned out to be poorly planned and his baldness progressed, leaving him with frontal grafts that were too “pluggy,” an unnatural frontal hairline, hair placed in the wrong direction, scarring in the recipient area, donor scarring, and a depleted donor supply. The patient underwent a flap hair restoration procedure from another well-established Los Angeles surgeon in 1995. However this procedure should never have been done given his low donor hair supply and compromised donor circulation, and he had necrosis (death of the tissue) at the distal ends of both flaps.

The patient became intrigued by the possibility of body hair transplants, and he spoke with several patients who had successful outcomes with Dr. Umar and decided to try the procedure with the proviso that he was truly seeking improvement and not perfection. He further stated that he could not be more satisfied with his results. There was no shedding and growth occurred almost immediately in the frontal and mid-scalp areas. The patient states that “although my prior odd appearance was not career-limiting, I feel like a new person.For people with need of extensive work from bad hair procedures and no scalp donor supply and the time and financial resources to do so, body hair transplant offers great hope in the hands of skilled, ethical, and committed physicians like Dr. U. I am also hopeful that physicians who have not had success with this procedure (and readily announce their dissatisfaction with Body hair transplantation BHT on the web) can collaborate to quantify their experiences and better understand why results may vary with different physicians. ” According to Dr U, these physicians are novices in the art of BHT and their failure is no reflection on the veracity of the procedure.
