BEFORE
AFTERDoctor’s Note — English translation
This case considered not only hairline height but also the balance between the temples. Preoperative photographs with the planned treatment lines are included to explain the design. From the patient's own perspective, the left temporal peak was appropriately positioned, while the right one sat farther outward, making the forehead appear wider and asymmetrical. We also transplanted into this area to improve the balance. Even when an area appears similar in photographs, the number of hairs needed varies with the size and shape of the head, hair thickness, and the actual transplant area. This patient's measured transplant area was broad, and a total of 5,000 hairs (2,500 grafts) were transplanted. We addressed the balance of the hairline and temples together, and the patient was satisfied with the result.
How to interpret this case
Left and right in this record refer to the patient's own perspective, not the viewer's perspective in the photographs.
The stated 5,000 hairs (2,500 grafts) are the actual amounts transplanted in this patient. Similar-looking areas may require different hair counts depending on head shape, hair thickness and the measured transplant area.
The public record does not specify the surgery date or when the postoperative photographs were taken.
