Hi Guys,
I hope you find my case interesting.
I have had several hair transplants over the past 15 years totaling around 9.500 FUE extractions from my donor which was left in a bad state.
I went to Dr Mwamba's clinic in Brussels to repair and try to leave a homogenous looking donor area. The repair was done in 3 steps.
1) We extracted 500 FUE grafts from the more denser areas to try to leave a more homogenous look.
2) On a second date we implanted 550 FUE from the nape into thinning areas and did a 50 BHT test on the left area.
3) After confirming growth of BHT (I believe it was 95%) we proceeded to implant 1.100 BHT more taken from the beard, chest and arms.
I attach pictures in chronological order and the results on the last picture are 5 months after the last surgery.
My donor looks completely normal now and I can buzz cut it without any noticeable thinner areas thus I could not be more satisfied with the outcome. It's impossible for my barber or even in pictures to tell BHT apart from my native hair and while it was a long process and long surgeries I would do it again.
Pre op 3mm
Pre op 2mm
Area to repair
Intraop
4 months
Here are the 50 BHT graft test next to the left ear
Pre and 4 months post op.
Final result
1 month post-op (second donor BHT repair)
Donor 5 months post op second surgery.
