Starting Point

Norwood 5 Hair Loss With Residual Hair Along the Hairline

Before surgery, the patient was documented as Norwood Hair Loss Classification 5.

The baseline photographs also showed some fine, diffuse native hair remaining along the frontal hairline.

The treatment goals centered on restoring the frontal frame while incorporating the temple recessions into the broader hairline plan.

Understand the Plan

Hairline Restoration With Full Temple Closure

The documented plan used 3,900 FUE grafts to restore the patient's hairline and frontal region.

Full temple closure was also part of the treatment goal, allowing the restoration to address the frontal frame laterally rather than treating only the central hairline.

PRP was documented as an adjunct to the November 2019 procedure.

Frontal Restoration

The hairline and frontal region were the principal documented recipient areas for the 3,900-graft procedure.

Temple Closure

The plan specifically included full closure of the recessed temple areas as part of the reconstructed frontal frame.

Adjunct-treatment note: PRP is documented as having been used with the procedure. The available case record does not establish that PRP independently caused the postoperative result.

What This Case Shows

Approximately 4,000 Grafts Can Be Concentrated on the Frontal Frame

This case provides documented evidence of 3,900 grafts used primarily for the hairline and frontal region with full temple closure in a Norwood 5 patient.

It provides a useful comparison with other procedures around 4,000 grafts in which grafts extend farther into the mid-scalp or crown.

This does not mean every Norwood 5 patient or every patient seeking temple closure requires 3,900 grafts. Appropriate graft requirements depend on recipient-area size, donor resources, existing native hair, hair characteristics and the goals of the individual restoration.
