This is an interesting case. This fellow has had multiple surgeries since the 80's. He had 3 scalp reductions and 7 strip excisions. He came to us with an exhausted donor area. He only wants to fill in part of his crown. It will ultimately be his last surgery. --- |

You sure he knew the difference between strip and fue? No person in his right mind would choose strip over fue for beard procedure. |

I swear as God is my witness he knew fully what the differences in FUE/strip. He was a veteran HT guy. Dr. Harris doesn't pull the wool over guys eyes. Believe me I was wary about it too... and asked Dr. Harris what he thought about me putting this online and he said... "Engage in your discussions. It is what it is. And it is something worth discussing. As long as your readers know what the whole situation here was in this case. I don't see why it should not be something discussed." --- |

I started to place/plant and I noticed that his scalp was very firm/rigid. There was no "give" in his scalp which meant I had to employ a different method of placing. I learned this at Dr. Cooley's office. You have to use a needle to hold the graft in place then use the forceps to slide the graft into his new home. I use this method he taught me because when you have a situation like this, there is a risk of crushing of the bulbs. The needle/forcep method is a good tool to have. --- |

The patient came in for his first wash and post op instructions. The patient reported no discomfort overnight although he was given motrin(per his choice) and a sleeping pill. He reported this morning some tightness in his beard but no pain. He was happy. BTW he is an avid mountain climber. Has climbed to 22,000 feet twice in the Andes. Just thought it was cool to hear about his mountain escapades. He is 63 years old but looks 53. Anyway here are some post op pictures. --- |

Wow, really looks great. But I still think the guy is crazy... I'd never have a suture in that area, imho... |

It looks painful. He will always have a scar and it's difficult to hide under the chin. Did he do it because it's less expensive than fue ? |

Hairtech how many grafts? |
You never said how many grafts he had? IMO, it's not worth getting a strip if you have anything less than 2000 grafts. I can't wait to see what his chin looks like in a month. |

Let this be a lesson |
This should be a lesson for all the young folks out there. This guy is 63 years old and still having restoration work. I've seen far too often in this and other forums 20-25 year olds saying that they wouldn't care about their hair when they got to be 40ish. --- |
