Medical Background & Assessment​

Rajendra, a 35-year-old professional, had been suffering from patterned hair loss for over 6 years. Despite trying multiple over-the-counter remedies and dermatological treatments, his frontal hairline continued to recede, significantly impacting his confidence.

He approached the Hairfree & Hairgrow Clinic in Ahmedabad based on a trusted friend’s recommendation. A detailed hair and scalp assessment using trichoscopy and scalp density mapping confirmed the diagnosis: androgenetic alopecia, Norwood Grade 4, with a stable donor zone at the occipital scalp.

Preoperative Evaluation​

• Medical History: No systemic illness. Fit for surgery.
• Keloid History: Negative
• Scalp Condition: Mild dandruff
• Donor Hair Quality: Thick, black, mildly wavy
• Family History: Father and elder brother with similar pattern baldness

Dr. Richa, with her two decades of experience in surgical dermatology, discussed realistic outcomes, answered all patient concerns, and advised a combination approach:

• FUE Hair Transplant
• Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
• DHT Blocker + Minoxidil 5% for maintenance

Procedure Details​

• Date of Surgery: 5th November 2021

• Number of Grafts: 2800 (approx. 6200 hair follicles)

Surgical Steps:​

Customized hairline designed based on Rajendra's age and facial aesthetics. Frontal and mid-scalp zones were marked for coverage.

1. Graft Implantation:

Performed with KEEP Implanters by a trained surgical team under the supervision of Dr. Richa.
