Patient story 15

Norwood Scale: 3

Surgery: Follicular Unit Excision (FUE)

Number of Grafts: 1515

This patient was suffering from androgenic alopecia, commonly called male pattern baldness. He had receded frontally, in his forelock and in his temples. Our Surgeons at The Treatment Rooms London first explained that he would benefit from considering medications to prevent further hair loss and treat his androgenic alopecia. The patient, after stabilising his hair loss with Finasteride, then chose to restore his hair in his forelock and hairline by undergoing a hair transplant. His fine, curly hair makes for a challenging hair transplant case with some limitations on what can be achieved with a result. However, after our Surgeons counselled him accordingly, he was happy to restore his hairline with surgery.
