imun,

you mentioned you had 1600 grafts in the top/crown area; all in all, that is not a lot of grafts for that area; the crown can "eat up" a lot of grafts. so really you had 2100 grafts covering a large area; that is not a large amount of grafts for that large of an area; i don't think the results are bad per say, just not dense; a coaltion doc should be able to give you the density you desire

crowns are tricky places for HTs and it does take a lot longer for it to see final result. i know that you are at 15 month mark, but i read that it takes full 2 years for crown work to show its true face.

as hoose stated above it's not that bad for such small amount of grafts, and yes if you ask anyone here, they'll all tell you that crown is a black hole for grafts indeed. no one knows for certain why, but it is what it is. so for someone that is considering a crown work, much bigger graft count is necessary to achieve decent coverage for that area than any other for that matter.

my 2 cents

PD,

I had my HT almost 2 years back and want to have another one now. What do you think, how many grafts do I need to get density in the crown?

Thanks.

imun,

we dont see your frontal, may be thats where you think you need your 2nd HT on...

but if you are still talking about your crown again... honestly, i wouldnt even plan on the next one until i wait and see how your loss is going to progress... if you are going to have any down the road.. who knows it may have stabilized or slowed down..

but if you want to push it, need a real thick bush, probably another 500.. some docs might even say they can sneak in a 1000 !

PD,

Thanks for your feedback. I am satisfied with my front, i just need some grafts in the crown area. as you can see in the pics, there is a bald spot in the crown. I use toppik to cover the crown and it works well but i just want a natural solution. i have been on propecia since sept 2005.
