Patient presentation and recorded decisions

Assessment & Treatment Planning

Patient goal: Lower and reconstruct a defined, proportionate frontal hairline while improving visible coverage across the frontal and mid-scalp regions in line with the patient's facial structure and donor capacity.

Assessment context: Frontal hairline recession, deep bitemporal recession and reduced visible density across the mid-scalp.

Planning rationale: FUE-based extraction and recipient-site creation were selected to support individual follicular-unit harvesting with planning adapted to Afro-textured follicular curvature. The treatment plan focused on controlled recipient-site direction, angle and distribution across the frontal and mid-scalp regions.

Design notes: The frontal hairline was planned according to the patient's facial proportions, recession pattern and Afro-textured hair characteristics. The anterior boundary was designed to remain structured and proportionate while respecting the patient's natural curl pattern and growth orientation.

Recorded Procedure

Follicular units were harvested from the posterior scalp donor area using FUE-based extraction with planning adapted to Afro-textured follicular curvature. Recipient sites were created across the planned frontal and mid-scalp zones according to the intended direction, angle and distribution, followed by graft placement according to the treatment design.

Recorded follow-up context

Clinical Interpretation

Documented Observation

The pre-treatment scalp record describes frontal hairline recession, deep bitemporal recession and reduced visible density across the mid-scalp. The recorded treatment field was the frontal hairline, frontal scalp and mid-scalp. The recorded procedure used 3,200 grafts. At 12 months, the clearest visual change is concentrated at the frontal hairline, with additional photographed change through the frontal scalp and mid-scalp. The treatment did not target the crown, so these photographs should not be interpreted as evidence of crown restoration. Because tight curl can increase the apparent coverage seen in two-dimensional photographs, the images are a visual record of this patient's result rather than a direct measure of density. This is the documented result of one patient and does not predict another patient's outcome.
