This 46-year-old patient with Norwood Class 5 hair loss traveled from the United Kingdom to AlviArmani Beverly Hills for a 4,000-graft FUE hair transplant performed in a single session. Treatment focused on the frontal two-thirds of the scalp.
Result After 4,000-Graft FUE Restoration
The documented result shows restoration across the frontal two-thirds of the scalp following placement of 4,000 FUE grafts in a single session.
The surgical strategy was designed to restore coverage across a relatively large frontal and mid-scalp treatment area while maintaining a mature hairline.
Norwood Class 5 Hair Loss Before Treatment
Before surgery, the patient was documented as Norwood Class 5, with recession and thinning affecting a substantial portion of the frontal and mid-scalp.
He was 46 years old and traveled from the United Kingdom to Beverly Hills for treatment.
4,000 Grafts Across the Frontal Two-Thirds
The treatment plan used 4,000 FUE grafts in a single session to restore the frontal two-thirds of the scalp.
Rather than treating the graft count as the goal itself, the grafts were distributed across the documented recipient area to address the patient's Norwood 5 pattern and create an age-appropriate frontal frame.
PRP was also documented as an adjunct to the procedure.
Frontal Two-Thirds
The documented recipient area extended through the frontal scalp and mid-scalp rather than being limited to the hairline alone.
Single-Session FUE
All 4,000 grafts in this case were transplanted during one documented FUE session.
Immediately After Placement of 4,000 FUE Grafts
The postoperative photograph documents the recipient area immediately after placement of the 4,000 grafts.
Restoration Across the Frontal and Mid-Scalp
The follow-up evidence shows the treated frontal two-thirds after the single-session procedure.
Hair direction and angulation were planned to integrate the transplanted hair with the patient's existing native hair across the treated area.
Why He Traveled From the United Kingdom to Beverly Hills
The patient worked in the finance industry and described conducting extensive research before deciding where to undergo hair transplantation.
Although he lived in the United Kingdom, he ultimately traveled to AlviArmani Beverly Hills for the procedure. In the video below, he discusses his research, decision-making process and experience.

4,000 Grafts Can Support a Broad Frontal Restoration
This case provides documented evidence of 4,000 grafts being transplanted in a single FUE session across the frontal two-thirds of a Norwood 5 scalp.
It also illustrates why the treatment area matters when comparing 4,000-graft results. Another patient receiving the same graft count may have a different starting pattern or a different distribution of recipient areas.
This does not mean every Norwood 5 patient requires 4,000 grafts. Appropriate graft requirements depend on recipient-area size, donor resources, existing native hair, hair characteristics and the goals of the individual restoration.
Questions About This 4,000-Graft FUE Case
How many grafts were transplanted?
The patient received 4,000 FUE grafts in one documented surgical session.
What was the patient's hair-loss classification?
The patient was documented as Norwood Class 5 before surgery.
Which areas were treated?
The documented treatment area was the frontal two-thirds of the scalp, including the frontal region and mid-scalp.
Was the crown treated?
Crown treatment is not documented in the available case record. The documented restoration focused on the frontal two-thirds.
Were all 4,000 grafts transplanted in one session?
Yes. This case documents transplantation of all 4,000 FUE grafts during a single session.
Was PRP used?
Yes. PRP is documented as an adjunct to the procedure. The case does not establish that PRP independently caused the patient's postoperative result.
Was this procedure performed using Maximus FUE™?
The available case record documents a 4,000-graft single-session FUE procedure. AlviArmani's current pathway for large-session procedures above approximately 3,500 grafts is Maximus FUE™. The historical procedure is not retrospectively relabeled here without supporting documentation.
Does every Norwood 5 patient need 4,000 grafts?
No. Graft requirements depend on the size of the recipient area, donor resources, existing native hair, hair characteristics and the goals of the individual restoration.

Your Hair Restoration Plan Is Individual
Graft count is only one part of planning. Your hair-loss pattern, treatment areas, existing native hair, donor resources and long-term goals all influence the appropriate approach.
