That is where it becomes important that available donor supply be increased. Whether by use of FUSE/fue scalp grafts or body hair or facial hair.
Incomplete transplants would be a cause of bad press for HT science in coming future, even if the initial transplant was great but the patient lost hair with age. That is why its very important that the patient be made aware of the worse case scenario (progressive hairloss necessitating repeat HTs) at the outset.
Yep, helpful link, thanks.
I think that what I am noticing is not the ethnic simplicity of the hairline. It may be that Armani in particular is more aggressive in closing the temple angles and this requires changes in directionality. Your clinic and many others are more conservative in order to preserve donor for future HT.
There might be an interesting case for changing the natural directionality of the hairline in patient where the choice is not to re-instate the original position of the hairline but to create a higher line. I mean that if the hair is graduated into the temples then the recession may look like it was naturally higher in the first place. I would suggest that one of the noticeable things about recession is that this graduation is lost since this is more evident in the very front of a type I hairlines. I admit that I have not seen enough hairlines at close proximity to be confident that what I am saying is true.

I think I may be getting what you are saying.
I will post another result that may illustrate that and you can correct me where I am wrong. But let me do it on another thread. Too many different patient results on this thread may confuse readers.
Comment: That guy is going to go awfully bald, as the top is going in the vertex over a big area. I hope he has ALOT of body hair to mix in with scalp hair.
Comment 2: Indian men seemingly are the only men on earth who are as “hairy” as Caucasian men. I didn’t think anyone had the pelts on their chests (and sometimes back) and legs like we do, but as Ive met a few Indian guys here in the states, Im shocked that those fellas have body hair much like we do…a bunch.
You didn’t told us what happened with the small BHT test you made to the patient in the front area
From what I have seen from the chest donor area picture, the patient has very good Body Hair Donor. If I was in the patients place I would fill the crown with BHT’s and probably blend some HT’s.
That is what I am going to do if intercytex phase II results are not as expected…

Imor,
The small test bht session was performed in June 2007. We usually offer complimentary test bht sessions to patients going for strip FUHT, where we feel that the patient may lose more hair in future and, thus, may have to depend on this donor resource.
This way the patient knows his healing and growth before he goes for a larger bht session.
I will let you know an update on the patient in the future. As of now, its too early.
