  1. Thank you for your answers. It seems like this size of procedure is fairly common at some clinics. But would placing 4000-5000 grafts over my existing hair risk damaging it and make it fall out prematurely? /Nils
  2. Hello, let me tell you about my case and my contradicting consultation experiences. I am a 25 year old with a N3 with diffuse thinning and I am now considering HT for a denser front scalp and fuller hairline. First I went to a Swedish FUE clinic (the Ilter Clinic). They proposed a FUE session of about 2400 transplants. They said that it would achieve my goals as described above. I had also heard good things here on the network about Dr Bisanga, so I decided to go to Brussels to meet him. I got a bit surprised when he recommended me 4000-5000 transplants. He told me that the best way for me was to go for a FUT strip operation, as that would give me hair from a "safer" donor area (hair that I do not risk to loose at a later age). This he would like to do in one single large strip operation (31 cm x 1,8-2 cm strip). That sounded good and I was convinced that Dr Bisanga was the best option. Still I went to another consultation at another clinic in Sweden (New Hair Clinic in Stockholm). First she told me that they recommend a FUE or FUT of about 2000 grafts. I told her about the proposed large strip operation by Dr Bisanga of 4000-5000 grafts and she almost feel about of her chair.:eek: She strongly discourage me to go for a strip operation of this size in one session. Now I do not know what to do!:confused: Is 4000-5000 grafts from a 31 cm x 1,8-2 cm strip a CRAZY big operation? Another hair doctor I emailed, wrote to me and said that such a big single session strip operation was almost impossible. Please share your thoughts! /Anton
