My first HT wasn't a success. That was 1,800 grafts, that could have been utilized better. I'm only 4.5 months from my last surgery, so I don't really count the 9K grafts. Right now, it's more like 6k grafts that have grown so far. Never compare results. No two people are the same. Someone may appear to have thinner hair, or have more hair loss, but the reality may be different. Even if you go to the same doctor, results will vary from person to person.
