3,500-Graft Vitruvian FUE: Norwood 3/4, Zones 1, 2 & 4

Case Study · 3,500 Grafts

A documented AlviArmani single-session Vitruvian FUE restoration performed in Beverly Hills using 3,500 grafts across Zones 1, 2 and 4. The patient was documented as AlviArmani Pattern 1 Class 4 / Norwood 3/4, with recession and thinning involving multiple areas of the scalp.

3,500-Graft Multi-Zone Vitruvian FUE Restoration

This case documents a 3,500-graft procedure involving Zones 1, 2 and 4 rather than a restoration concentrated exclusively within the frontal scalp.

Starting Point

Pattern 1 Class 4 / Norwood 3/4 Hair Loss

The patient was documented as AlviArmani Pattern 1 Class 4 / Norwood 3/4. The case record describes recession and thinning involving Zones 1, 2 and 4.

Because several areas were involved, the surgical plan needed to distribute the available 3,500 grafts across multiple recipient zones rather than concentrating the entire graft supply in one region.

Understand the Plan

Distributing 3,500 Grafts Across Three Treatment Zones

The documented surgical plan used 3,500 Vitruvian FUE grafts across Zones 1, 2 and 4 in a single session.

The case record does not provide an exact graft allocation for each individual zone, so the 3,500 graft count should be understood as the total graft supply used across the three documented treatment areas.

Zones 1 & 2

The frontal hairline and frontal core were included in the documented treatment plan, addressing the anterior portion of the patient's hair-loss pattern.

Zone 4

Zone 4 was also documented as a treated area, extending this procedure beyond a purely frontal restoration.

Planning principle: the same 3,500-graft total can represent very different surgical strategies. In this case, grafts were distributed across three documented zones rather than concentrated only in the frontal region.

Treatment Evidence

Documented Treatment Zones

The available zone comparison provides additional context for the multi-zone nature of the procedure and the relationship between the treated areas.

Operative detail: the case record states that the grafts were maintained in the Ampligraf™ intraoperative preservation environment. This documents the preservation method used during the procedure; it does not by itself establish a specific outcome or growth advantage.
Early Follow-Up

Early Growth at Approximately Two Months

One of the supplied progression images is documented at approximately two months after surgery. This provides an early view of the developing result rather than a mature postoperative outcome.

Early follow-up should be interpreted differently from later result photography because the transplant is still progressing through the postoperative growth timeline.

Evaluating the Restoration From Multiple Angles

Additional photographs provide frontal and overhead context beyond the primary before-and-after image. The exact follow-up interval for these result views is not documented in the available case record.

What This Case Shows

3,500 Grafts Can Be Distributed Across Multiple Treatment Zones

This case provides an important contrast with other 3,500-graft procedures that concentrate most or all of the graft supply in the frontal scalp.

Here, the documented treatment extended across Zones 1, 2 and 4, demonstrating how a similar graft total can be divided among several recipient areas as part of an individualized plan.

The approximately two-month photograph also provides a documented early-growth milestone rather than presenting every postoperative image as though it represents the same stage of recovery.

This does not mean every Norwood 3/4 patient requires 3,500 grafts. Appropriate graft requirements depend on recipient-area size, donor resources, existing native hair, hair characteristics and the goals of the individual restoration.

Case Questions

Understanding This 3,500-Graft Multi-Zone Case

How many grafts were used?

The documented procedure used 3,500 FUE grafts.

Which areas were treated?

The documented treatment areas were Zones 1, 2 and 4.

What was the patient's hair-loss classification?

The patient was documented as AlviArmani Pattern 1 Class 4, corresponding to a Norwood 3/4 classification.

Was this a single-session procedure?

Yes. The available case record describes this as a single-session 3,500-graft Vitruvian FUE procedure.

Was PRP part of this procedure?

PRP is not documented in the current case record supplied for this procedure, so it should not be attributed to the case without additional supporting documentation.

Was the crown treated?

The documented treatment area is Zone 4. The current case record describes this as part of the multi-zone treatment plan but does not provide a separate operative statement identifying the area specifically as crown treatment.

How early was postoperative growth documented?

One supplied image is identified as approximately two months after surgery. This represents early progression rather than a mature result.

Does every Norwood 3/4 patient need 3,500 grafts?

No. Graft requirements vary according to treatment-area size, donor resources, existing native hair, hair characteristics and the goals of the individual restoration.
