A 53-year-old man treated at RHRLI in Woodbury, New York with FUT (strip), placing 3,381 grafts in a single session. The photographs below were taken before surgery and again at one year post-op, documented across 6 standardised views under matched lighting and head positioning. Patients travel to us from Nassau County, Suffolk County and the wider tri-state area; every candidate is assessed individually, because the right technique and graft count depend on donor supply, the pattern of loss, and what that person wants to achieve.

Every documented view
Hair restoration is judged from more than one viewpoint. Each pair below shows the same patient photographed from a consistent position before surgery and again at follow-up.
Front facial — before and one year post-op
Chin to chest — before and one year post-op
Left oblique — before and one year post-op
Right oblique — before and one year post-op
Vertex (crown) — before and one year post-op
Top-down — before and one year post-op
What this case involved
FUT (strip) moves this patient’s own follicular units from the donor region into the areas of thinning. Graft count is planned around available donor supply and the size of the area being treated; this patient received 3,381. Transplanted hair grows in gradually over the months that follow, which is why these photographs were taken at one year post-op rather than immediately after surgery.
Results differ from person to person and are not guaranteed. The only way to know which approach suits your pattern of loss is an in-person evaluation, where we will talk through every option — including whether surgery is the right step for you at all.
