50 year old male 1 year after 3500 graft SmartGraft Hair Restoration to the Crown by Dr. Kent Hasen

This patient, a 50-year-old male, noticed progressive thinning at the crown over several years. He sought to restore fullness after hair loss became more noticeable with age. The patient decided to proceed with Hair Restoration using FUE (SmartGraft or NeoGraft) in Naples and Ft. Myers after consulting with Dr. Hasen. During his evaluation, he shared that hair restoration had been a longstanding consideration and that, after turning 50, he felt ready to address the issue.

FUE, or follicular unit extraction, is a common option for patients seeking a natural hairline and minimal downtime. The technique uses SmartGraft or NeoGraft devices to gently harvest individual follicles from the donor area, which are then carefully implanted in thinning zones. In this case, Dr. Hasen and his team used SmartGraft, which offers a temperature- and moisture-controlled environment for the harvested grafts. This approach helps maintain graft integrity and supports healthy growth.

The above patient experienced a gradual return of hair fullness in the crown region. He reported satisfaction with the subtle, steady results as new hair became visible over several months. Recovery was well tolerated, allowing a quick return to routine activities and providing a discreet improvement in appearance after receiving 3500 grafts to the crown.
