Patient Overview

  • Age: 31 years

  • Gender: Male

  • State: Chhattisgarh, India

Hair Loss History & Diagnosis

Amit experienced progressive hair loss for 7–9 years. Hair thinning began in the crown region and later spread to the frontal and top scalp in a diffuse pattern.

  • Clinical diagnosis:
    Grade 5+ androgenetic alopecia with diffuse thinning

  • Current condition:
    Significant loss in frontal, mid-scalp, and crown areas

This pattern is common in genetically driven male pattern baldness.

Amit was medically fit and an ideal candidate for hair transplant surgery.

Previous Hair Loss Treatments

Before opting for surgery, Amit tried:

  • Minoxidil

  • Nutritional supplements

  • PRP therapy

These treatments reduced hair fall but did not restore bald areas, which led him to consider a permanent solution.

Expert Consultation

Amit consulted Dr. Jinkal Kunjadiya, a qualified and experienced dermatologist at the Surat branch of Hairfree Hairgrow Clinic.

During consultation:

  • Hair loss cause and progression were explained.

  • Hair transplant techniques, risks, and benefits were discussed.

  • Realistic expectations were set.

  • A personalized treatment plan was created.

After informed consent, Amit decided to proceed with surgery.

Hair Transplant Treatment Details

  • Surgery date: 9 December 2022

  • Technique: Advanced I-FUE (Implantation Follicular Unit Extraction)

  • Total grafts transplanted: 4,125

Post-Transplant Medical Plan

  • 4–5 PRP sessions over one year (every 2 months)

  • DHT blockers

  • Minoxidil 5% and 10%

  • Oral supplements for hair strength and growth

Step-by-Step Surgical Procedure

1. Hairline Planning & Analysis

  • Hairline, frontal, mid-scalp, and upper crown areas were carefully designed.

  • Lower crown planned for a future session

  • Trichoscopy was performed to evaluate donor density and recipient viability

Donor area findings:

  • Average density

  • Healthy follicles suitable for transplantation

2. Pre-Surgical Preparation

  • Local anesthesia sensitivity test (negative reaction)

  • Head shaving and scalp sterilization

  • Strict infection control protocols followed

3. Anesthesia

  • Modified local block anesthesia was administered

  • Painless technique used

  • Patient remained comfortable throughout the procedure.

4. Slit Creation

  • Sapphire blades used for precision:

    • 1.2 mm for hairline

    • 1.4 mm for other areas

  • Natural angle and direction maintained for realistic growth

5. Graft Extraction

  • 0.8 mm micro-punch used under magnification

  • Extraction time: ~3 hours

  • Grafts preserved at 4°C in specialized Ringer’s Lactate solution

Graft composition:

  • 20% single-hair grafts

  • 80% multi-hair grafts (double and triple follicles)

This ensured better density and coverage.

6. Graft Implantation

  • Performed using K.E.E.P. implanters

  • Separate handling for single and multiple follicular units

  • Implantation time: ~3.5 hours

  • Minimal graft trauma ensured

7. Immediate Post-Procedure Care

  • Scalp dressing applied

  • Medicines prescribed for pain and infection prevention

  • Detailed aftercare instructions provided

  • A dedicated follow-up doctor is assigned

Hair Growth Timeline & Results

  • Around 60% of transplanted hair sheds, which is normal.

  • First PRP session given at 2 months

  • The donor area healed completely by 40 days

  • New hair growth started after 3 months

  • 20–25% visible growth every month

  • Around 80% of the results were achieved by 8 months

  • Hair thickness gradually improved

  • First haircut done at 5 months
