BEFORE
The patient had a past history of multiple past hair restoration procedures using antiquated methods dating back to over 2 decades ago. Past surgeries included; Scalp reduction,
F-M Flaps,
Old styled large punch transplants,
Strip surgeries.He began his repair journey with another esteemed hair restoration surgeon and was referred to me for BHT after running out of head donor hair and options. Before the he had a strip excision of his hairline.
The picture before BHT was:
An exposed strip scar in front of the hairline that ran from one temporal recess to the other
Exposed linear F-M scars that extend from behind the hairline to both sides of the head in the parietal areas.
Strip scars in the back of the head.
A scalp reduction scar that ran from the crown to the mid scalp
Multiple 4mm punch excision scars distributed along the back sides and top of the head
Diffused hair loss exposing the aforementioned scars.

The following photos illustrate these finding rather well:
It is expected that even more growth and maturing of new growth would continue to occur in the ensuing 12 to 18 months.

Single Follicle Extraction & Transfer (SFET)
Using Head and Body hair
The patient underwent BHT 6 months ago using the following donor sources:
Beard hair: 2105 ; Abdomen 2960; Arms 1444; Chest 799; Leg and thighs: 2177 and Pubic 824.
The goal was to obfuscate the hairline and temple scars while redefining the unnatural angulations brought about by the FM flaps as well as to impart coverage in the frontal scalp, midscalp, crown, head donor (back of head) and aspects of the sides (parietal scalp) worst affected by the punch excision scars.
Here are some photos illustrating the scope of the surgery:

Happy?
I’d like to think he’s bl**dy ECSTATIC!
Look at the guy?
He looks like a new person!!
Wow!
Phenomenal work, Dr Umar!
Wonderful to see a non-scalp-hair FULL transplant to prove, once and for all, that you’re a true genius in this field!
wow, being a scarred up patient myself i can only imagine how this chap must feel, that is incredible coverage for the amount of hairs used considering that bht is finer calibre and this poor chap was a mess, and in only six months that is an awesome result, congrats to both
Man, he really looked terrible in the before pics. Think I would have killed myself if I had looked like that.
Congrats Dr. Umar, you really saved this guy…

» How much beard/body hair does he have left?
Excellent result by Dr Umar.
In my opinion Dr Umar is in a class of his own when it comes to HT, especially BHT. His dedication, skill and hardwork must be admired.
sofarsogood, you look like a genius, Dr. Umar sure seems to be putting out fantastic results. I’ve been extremely nervous about pulling the trigger on any surgery, but this leaves me shaking my head, saying come on what are you waiting for. my big concern is scaring, because the only hair I could use is beard hair and a little hair on the nape of my neck, but I don’t need the coverage that this guy needed. I would guess 3000 grafts would get me in decent condition. Not a full head of hair by any means, but a drastic inprovement.

Lol.
I’m far from any sort of genius, my friend.
Anyway…
Scarring in the donor sites under the chin?
My legs look 100% the same as before BHT w/ Dr U.
I honestly cant find any signs of BHT work and wear shorts here in Cali regularly.
But please note that my only BHT experience is with Dr. U.
In the future, I’ll be trying some beard hair in my strip scars.
This might just be as close to a “magic bullet” for repairing strip scars one can hope for from surgery.
Wow, this patient was a trainwreck, he’s been through the ringer and now must feel like a blind man being able to see for the first time. What a remarkable transformation
