This 35-year-old man came to our Toronto hair transplant clinic after years of feeling self-conscious about thinning at the crown of his scalp. His hair loss had started in his mid-20s, slowly progressing in the area that’s hardest to disguise — the crown. Like many men, he had tried to ignore it at first, hoping it wouldn’t get worse. But by his early 30s, the loss had become too noticeable to overlook.
He was otherwise healthy, a non-smoker, and highly motivated to take action. At the time of his consultation, he had been using oral finasteride for about a year, which helped stabilize his hair loss. He had also recently added topical minoxidil, and after four months, was seeing some improvement in hair thickness — a great sign that he was responding well to medical therapy.
Together, we decided on a 2,008 graft FUE hair transplant, focused on rebuilding density and coverage at the crown. While crown cases require thoughtful planning and a strategic approach to graft placement, his excellent donor supply and consistent medical therapy made him an ideal candidate.
One year later, he returned for follow-up, and the results were outstanding. His crown was no longer a source of worry — the density and natural swirl pattern looked effortless, and his donor area showed no visible signs of harvesting. He told us he finally felt comfortable under overhead lighting again, and no longer avoided mirrors or photos from behind.
