Restoring Confidence with Hair Transplant after Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and Genetic Hair Loss

Welcome to H Hair Clinic’s blog! Today, we’re excited to share the remarkable journey of a mid-40s male patient who fought Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, endured chemotherapy, and faced accelerated genetic hair loss. Through tailored hair transplantation, he regained not only a full hairline but also his self-esteem and zest for life.


1. Patient Profile & Background

  • Age/Gender: Male, mid-40s

  • Medical History: Completed chemotherapy for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

  • Hair Loss Factors: Chemotherapy aftermath + Genetic (androgenetic) alopecia

  • Main Concerns: Receding hairline, frontal and temporal (M-zone) thinning

When multiple factors contribute to hair loss, prevention alone falls short. Our solution: personalized, aggressive hair restoration surgery to rebuild a natural, youthful hairline.






2. Surgical Plan & Harvest Strategy

The initial estimate was 3,100 follicular units (FUs), but given the patient’s genetic alopecia—weakening boundary hairs and additional regions in need of grafts—we recommended harvesting ≈10% more, targeting 3,500 FUs.
Reasons for Extra Harvest:

  1. Thinned frontal boundary hairs demand reinforcement.

  2. Supplemental grafting required in temporal and vertex areas not covered by the standard estimate.

  3. Excess grafts enable higher postoperative density and patient satisfaction.




3. Donor Site Harvest

Remarkably, the occipital donor area was rich in robust, multi-hair follicular units. Using a standard punch technique, we extracted ≈3,900 FUs, surpassing our 3,500 target. This abundance proved a win-win: the patient received ample grafts at a lower effective cost, while we achieved optimal resource utilization.





4. Six-Month Follow-Up

  • Hairline Reconstruction: Natural U-shaped design fully established.

  • Density Improvement: Even frontal and M-zone gaps are filled.

  • Patient Feedback: “I feel so much more confident every time I look in the mirror.”






5. One-Year AFS 360° Microscopic Comparison

Using our newly acquired AFS 360° hair magnification scope, we performed a detailed comparison:

  1. Sharper, more defined hairline.

  2. Complete filling of  “M” areas.

  3. Enhanced density in the frontal vertex region.

The patient joyfully reported, “My friends say I look like I’ve truly turned back the clock!”

6. Post-Op Maintenance Plan

  • Finasteride (oral): Preserve existing hair and prevent further loss.

  • Minoxidil (topical): Stimulate transplanted grafts and accelerate growth.

  • Regular Follow-Ups: Scheduled at 12, and 24 months to monitor progress.

This comprehensive aftercare protocol ensures the longevity and health of both native and transplanted hair.


7. Conclusion & Takeaway

Overcoming the dual challenges of lymphoma treatment and genetic alopecia, our patient now sports a vibrant, natural hairline and renewed confidence. H Hair Clinic’s future-oriented vision—combining cutting-edge AFS 360° technology with patient-specific harvesting strategies—makes transformative results possible. If you’re ready to reclaim your youth and self-assurance, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.

How much will it change if 4,000 hairs are planted?

 The most important key point is how much hair loss has occurred? How much hair will be collected? And how strong is the hair? This is a man in his mid 60s. He came to our clinic after seeing the transformation of a friend who had previously received a hair transplant. His hair is overall thin, there is not much hair that can be collected, and there are a lot of places that need to be planted. His friend had a hair transplant because his condition was worse than this, but he came to the hospital because his appearance had reversed. In this case, calculating the amount of hair that needs transplantation is meaningless. The important thing is to measure how much can be harvested. If you go to another place for consultation in this condition, they will give you this estimate. 5,500 hairs is enough. 6,000 hairs are possible using the mixed method. In most cases, the estimate will be given by increasing the number of hairs in some way. Most of them are consulting directors, so they don'...

I'm from Las Vegas.

 Hair transplant that I had been waiting for,,,, The customer goes to Gangnam according to the family's hair transplant plan. Situations requiring a hair transplant from the hairline to the top of the head The question is, how much can be harvested? I wonder how much I should plant... When I calculated the minimum amount of hair to be planted, it was over 6,000 hairs. Looking at the amount that can be collected, about 3600 hairs is the best. Since it was still a condition at the top of the head with a secondary possibility, the incision method was recommended and accepted... Design and target empty spaces and haze areas first using KNS-mixed pattern and HIH, HIE techniques. The transplanted hair was placed appropriately from front to back. And then he returned to America. I knew things were getting better because I occasionally contacted you through KakaoTalk. Two years later, I was able to see you again. We take regular photos that we check and compare them. fortal view top view...
