Patient QLR is a young woman in her early 20s who had hair loss on the front and top of her scalp following radiotherapy and surgery near her left part. Because the area was totally devoid of hair, she was unable to cover it, since the hair that was combed over the area from the part side had nothing to hold on to.
After one hair transplant session of 1,945 follicular unit grafts she had enough coverage that complete camouflage of the area was possible with proper grooming. A second session will give her greater density. It is important when transplanting hair into scar tissue that the hair restoration is performed over several sessions to allow the blood supply to re-establish itself in the area.
