FUT 2513-Graft Hair Transplant Case | Mid-Scalp and Side Temple Two-Angle Record
A man in his 30s came to Dr. Wen-Yi Wu for a hair transplant assessment because the scalp was visible along his central parting and both temples were receding. He hoped to plan the mid-scalp and the temple outline together. After treatment the case was recorded from an overhead angle and a side angle; use the sliders below to compare the two photo sessions.
This case used FUT to transplant 2,513 grafts, with the images focusing on the mid-scalp, the frontal hairline and the side temple. 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.
Mid-Scalp and Side Temple Two-Angle Images
The overhead view shows how much scalp was visible along the central parting and the hair flow at the front; the side view is aligned on the ear to show the temple recession and hairline outline. 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. In the pre-treatment side photo a headband holds the hair back so the temple can be seen clearly, while the later photo shows the hair combed naturally. Hair length, styling, head angle, camera distance and lighting were not exactly the same between the two sessions, which affects 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 Mid-Scalp and Temples Need Treatment?
When the mid-scalp and the temples are both thinning, the extent and priority of each area are assessed first: the temples frame the face, while the mid-scalp determines how visible the scalp is along the parting. The doctor allocates grafts based on native hair density, hair calibre, 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. 2513 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.
