If you have say a 5000 graph mega session how wide and long of a strip do you need to provide?

Obviously it varies and depends on denisity but on average how big is the strip thanks!!

If you have average density 85 fu cm/2 you will need a 2cm wide X 29-30cm long strip.

Take Care,
Jason

Not many people have that kind of donor / laxity available in one pass. Be aware of your goal but also have realistic expectations

Schedule an appt with a HT doctor, not MHR or Bosley, and the doctor can tell you how's your density and how wide and long the strip is, and all your questions.
