FUT 2210-Graft Hair Transplant Case | Two-Angle Record of the Front and Central Crown

FUT 30s Male

A man in his 30s came to Dr. Wen-Yi Wu for a hair transplant assessment because scalp was showing through along his central parting and his hair was thin from the forehead to the crown. He hoped to reduce how much of the central scalp was visible. After treatment the case was recorded from two overhead angles; use the slider below to compare the forehead and central crown at the two photo sessions.

This case used FUT to transplant 2,210 grafts, with the images focusing on coverage from the forehead to the central crown. 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 Images of the Front and Central Crown

The overhead view of the forehead shows coverage from above the forehead to the front of the crown; the overhead view of the central crown shows how much scalp was visible along the original parting. With the slider at the centre, you can compare the same area along the midline of the head across the two photo sessions; the eyes have been masked to protect the patient's privacy.

This is a photo record of a single case and does not mean everyone will achieve the same result. Hair length and style differ noticeably between the two sessions: a longer centre-parted style before treatment and short hair afterwards, which affects how much scalp shows and how full the hair looks. Head angle, camera distance and lighting are also not identical, so the photos should not be read as a direct density comparison. Actual recovery and hair growth also vary from person to person.

Thinning at the Central Crown: How Are Grafts Planned?

When scalp along the central parting is clearly visible, the doctor assesses whether the thinning is still spreading, the calibre and density of the surrounding native hair, and how many follicles the donor area at the back of the scalp can provide, before deciding how to prioritise the forehead through the crown. If hair loss is still progressing, medication and long-term planning are usually discussed as well. 2210 grafts is the record for this case, not a standard recommendation for everyone; the actual area and density must be decided at an in-person consultation. You can also read more about how FUT harvests grafts and who it suits.

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.
