Rex - 2600 FUHT grafts (repair HT) 1 year update

Dear Readers,

Patient - Rex
Age - 40's
Race - West Asia
Norwood stage - 6 (if patient had no transplants ever)

The patient nicknamed Rex visited us last year, 2007, with a situation, we find increasingly too often in repair patients.

Before visiting us, he underwent a strip Follicular unit hair transplant at another centre 3 years ago.

Even though follicular unit grafts were transplanted, the results and HT planning left a lot to be desired.

I shall discuss the things that were done incorrectly, in Rex's HT 3 years ago. I hope reading about them will educate upcoming clinics/doctors as to what they should not do.

But first, some pictures and video

From now on, we shall have a soundtrack along with the videos.

The current video has background commentary briefly explaining about the procedure. I hope the viewers will find that helpful.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions to further improve the result presentations.

After 1 + year pictures (?unconventional hairstyle)

I know Rex's hairstyle is a bit unconventional. However, it seems that this hair style suits his purposes well for the present.
