Media Mgr Dr. Carlos K. Wesley
This 36-year-old man underwent a follicular-unit-extraction (FUE) session with Dr. Carlos K. Wesley] in which a total of 2111 grafts were placed.

His hair follicles were incubated in autologous (his own) platelet rich plasma ( PRP) throughout the duration of the procedure. This, combined with an ATP-containing storage solution has been shown to enhance survival of transplanted hairs.


Rather than a larger FUE punch used by a robotic approach, Dr. Wesley used a smaller caliber hand-held motorized punch to performed the donor harvest. This approach better enabled the capture of donor hair roots that are slightly curved beneath the skin surface. Upon completion of the harvest, the patient €™s donor area was treated with PRP and ACell in order to not only minimize scar tissue formation, but also encourage partial regeneration of donor hair follicles.


The patient returned one year after his procedure and images of the patient can be seen below.

Hi
Where did he place the 2111 grafts ? It seems to me that it is not in the crown but frontal zone and middle scalp .
Nice result by the way .
