Facial Symmetry and Realistic Expectations: A Successful Hair Transplant Procedure for a Personal Trainer

Patient Profile:

This patient is a 29-year-old personal trainer who had tried multiple temporary solutions to conceal his hair loss, including partial wigs and hairspray. He opted for a more permanent solution and started taking finasteride before the procedure.

Consultation and Procedure:

During the consultation, we considered the patient’s facial symmetry and designed a hairline that would maintain the aesthetics of his face. We set realistic expectations and only proceeded with the procedure when the patient was happy with the worst-case scenario. We used a 0.8 mm punch to extract hair follicles and placed 2200 grafts for high-density packing.

Results and Follow-up:

The patient is now 12 months post-transplant and super happy with the outcome. The hair transplant gave him the confidence to pursue opportunities in his line of work and his personal life, such as getting a promotion and moving into a new house. He recommends both the hair transplant procedure and finasteride to others.

Conclusion:

The hair transplant procedure gave the patient a newfound belief in himself and the confidence to pursue opportunities he had previously hesitated to follow. The procedure was successful, and the patient is happy with the outcome. He recommends having an in-depth conversation about hair loss and the advantages of hair loss stabilising medication such as finasteride to others, along with the benefits of getting a high quality hair transplant surgery.
