Summary: A 60-year-old patient with Norwood 6 hair loss had 3,524 FUE grafts (7,610 hairs) to create an age-appropriate hairline and cover the frontal and mid-scalp areas at Dr Bonaros’s clinic in Glasgow. The crown was left for a second session after the donor area recovered. The photos run from before surgery to 12 months.

What this case tells you, and what it doesn’t
- With advanced loss, the donor area cannot cover everything at once. Doing the front first and the crown later is a common way to stretch a limited donor supply.
- 12 months is the main checkpoint. Most transplanted hair has grown in by 12 months, and texture can keep maturing up to around 18 months.
- This is a clinic-selected result. Clinics publish their strongest outcomes, so compare it with independent patient diaries before deciding.
Questions to ask if you’re considering this clinic
- Who performs each step: the incisions, the extraction and the implantation?
- How many grafts are planned for each area, and what density does that give?
- What does aftercare include, and how is the 12-month follow-up done?
