Dr. Jean Devroye, HTS Clinic / 5814 Combo - 4658 FUT + 1156 FUE / 1 session

[Dr Devroye]

PATIENT'S DETAILS

œ“ 29 years old, Diffuse pattern alopecia (Ludwig II), losing hair since the age of 20, no hair loss history in his family.

œ“ Had 2 previous FUE surgeries in another clinic, 3000 grafts already transplanted.

œ“ No medications.

œ“ Medium hair.

œ“ Normal follicular units.

œ“ High % of hair in telogen phase.



RECOMMENDED TREATMENT

During the pre-op consultation, the patient expressed his will to have a combination of FUT and FUE in order to transplant the maximum number of grafts in one single session.
Given that he already had 2 previous FUE HTs in another clinic, and considering his diffuse pattern alopecia, I found this option very appropriate for his characteristics.

Finally, the patient received 5814 grafts in two consecutive surgery days.
I have used the single grafts to rebuild the very first hairline, while the other grafts to considerably boost his frontal, mid-scalp and crown density.

6 months after the surgery, the results are already noticeable and the change on his look is becoming apparent.
We look forward to welcoming back the patient during the next months, so that we €™ll be able to provide you with an update and better quality pictures of this interesting case.



SURGERY DETAILS

œ“ 5814 grafts

œ“ Technique: COMBO FUT (4658 FUs) + FUE (1156 FUs)

œ“ FUE scoring and extractions executed with my WAW system, now widely used in the sphere of FUE.
It consists of a very precise pedal that enables to control the movement of the punch, that I also designed myself.
The main advantage is to reduce substantially the number of damaged and transected hair, thus to raise the quality of the procedure.
The system is now used worldwide and several dozens of surgeons or centres are already using it.

œ“ Incisions: 35-40/cm2, performed by Dr. Devroye


œ“ Grafts Breakdown:
˜ž 1009 Single FUT + 63 Single FUE = 1072 Single grafts
˜ž 1223 Double FUT + 490 Double FUE grafts = 1713 Double grafts
˜ž 1268 Triple FUT + 529 Triple FUE grafts = 1797 Triple grafts
˜ž 1158 Quad. FUT + 74 Quad. FUE grafts = 1232 Quadruple grafts

œ“ Total number of Hair: 10569 (FUT) + 2926 (FUE) = 13495

œ“ Average Hair/Graft: 2.27 (FUT) + 2.53 (FUE) = 2.40

That is mind blowingly good for 6 months. This guy has to be walking around on cloud nine now already as his hair looks amazing and it's only six months.
