FUT 1000-Graft Hair Transplant Case | Two-Angle Record of Hairline and Crown Whorl
A Taiwanese man in his 30s came to Dr. Wen-Yi Wu for a hair transplant assessment because scalp was visible at his frontal hairline and crown whorl. He hoped to plan the treatment area based on his pattern of hair loss and donor supply. The two sliders below show the hairline and whorl from similar angles before treatment and at about 8 months of follow-up.
This case used FUT to transplant 1,000 grafts, with separate images of the frontal hairline and the crown whorl. The actual technique, treatment area and graft allocation still need to be assessed by the doctor in person, based on the extent of hair loss, hair calibre, native hair density, donor supply at the back of the scalp and the risk of future hair loss.
Two-Angle Comparison of the Hairline and Crown Whorl
Both pairs were first calibrated to head proportions and the main area of interest, then framed around the centre of the face and the centre of the whorl respectively, to make it easier to view the two photo sessions.

This is a photo record of a single case and does not mean everyone will achieve the same result. Between the two photo sessions, hair length, styling, head angle, camera distance and lighting were not exactly the same, which affects how the hairline, whorl and visible scalp appear. Actual recovery and hair growth also vary from person to person.
How Is Thinning at Both the Hairline and Whorl Assessed?
Planning requires checking the extent of hair loss at both the forehead and crown, native hair density and hair flow direction, weighed against what the donor area can provide. 1,000 grafts is the record for this case, not a standard recommendation for everyone; the actual allocation must also take into account priority areas and future changes in hair loss.
Want to know how your own hairline and crown whorl could be planned?
Results vary between individuals and depend on native hair density, hair calibre, donor supply and aftercare. Graft counts reflect each patient's own hair loss at the time and are not a fixed recommendation; your plan requires an in-person assessment by the doctor.
