4244 Grafts in Two Hair Transplant Sessions with Dr. Unger by Falceros - Associate Publisher (created on )Gallery | Comments 
Posted on behalf of Dr. Unger displaying his use of follicular unit hair transplantation.

Picture 1

A young man with severe (for his age) hair loss in the frontal area before transplanting.

Picture 2

One year after a single session to the frontal area consisting of 2246 FU transplanted at an average density of approximately 30 FU/cm². The hair has been parted in the same area as it was in the before photo for critical evaluation.

Picture 3

The same patient shown in Fig. 4a before his first session but with the hair wet with an antiseptic solution prior to the surgery. The photo demonstrates considerable hair loss in the mid-scalp area as well as in the frontal area. The mid-scalp was treated with 1998 FU at an average density of approximately 30 FU/cm² six months after the frontal area had been transplanted.

Picture 4

19 months after the second session of FUT. This individual had very dense hair in his donor area. Primarily because of his age, the average number of hairs/FU was greater than the typical 2.3/FU, hence the denser than average results. As he gets older and the number of hairs/FU in the original donor tissue decreases, the recipient area hair density will also decrease. Younger patients should proceed with transplanting with more caution because of the greater uncertainty of the ultimate extent of hair loss in both recipient and original donor tissues. However, emotional factors must also be taken into account when a physician decides how long one should wait before starting transplanting in a young man.
