FUT 2435-Graft Hair Transplant Case | Hairline and Crown Whorl Two-Angle Record
A man in his 30s came to Dr. Wen-Yi Wu for a hair transplant assessment because his hairline was receding, the middle of his forehead was thinning, and the scalp around his crown whorl was also easy to see. He hoped to plan both the forehead and the crown together. After treatment the case was recorded from an overhead forehead angle and a crown whorl angle; use the sliders below to compare the two photo sessions.
This case used FUT to transplant 2,435 grafts, with the images focusing on the hairline, the middle of the forehead 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.
Hairline and Crown Whorl Two-Angle Images
The overhead forehead view shows the hairline position, both temples and the middle of the forehead; the crown view is centred on the whorl to show visible scalp and hair flow around it. With the slider at the centre, you can compare the same area 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. Between the two photo sessions, hair length, hair colour, combing direction, head angle, camera distance, background and lighting were not exactly the same, and the pre-treatment crown photo has a brighter background, all of which affect how the scalp and hair volume appear. Actual recovery and hair growth also vary from person to person.
How Are Grafts Allocated When Both the Forehead and Crown Are Thinning?
When both the forehead and the crown whorl need treatment, the order of priority usually comes first: the forehead frames the face, while the crown covers a larger area and needs more grafts. The doctor allocates grafts based on how thin each area is, native hair density, where thinning may continue, and how many follicles the donor area at the back of the scalp can provide; if hair loss is still progressing, medication is usually discussed as well. 2435 grafts is the record for this case, not a standard recommendation for everyone; the actual allocation must be decided at an in-person consultation.

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.
