How many grafts do you think I need?
Melvin- Admin replied to FilthyCasual's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
If you specifically want to treat that area then yea 600 grafts makes sense, but you have thinning throughout your entire scalp. You will need around 5000 grafts eventually to restore the entire scalp, unless you are on finasteride. -
Dear valued members, physicians, and visitors of our community, As most of you know, we request input from our community and our recommended physicians before we approve any physician for a recommendation. We invite you to review the below information about Dr. Rafael De Freitas @De Freitas Clinic and his results and to post a reply with your opinion. You can also message us privately if you prefer.

We are now considering him for a potential recommendation- this requires that he meet our strict community standards of performing ultra-refined follicular unit grafting with consistently high yields and excellent results. We expect our surgeons to be able to not only dense-pack quality follicular unit grafting but also have the capacity and staffing to transplant thousands of follicular units per day. Our recommended physicians must operate transparently and be held publicly accountable, knowing that their patients may come to our forum and review them right after surgery. Transparency builds trust and accountability, which is the foundation for credibility. That is why our list of recommendations is unlike any other on the internet. We use the collective wisdom and input of the entire community. Why we Feel Dr. De Freitas is worthy of recommendation.

Best Footballer Hair Transplants
Melvin- Admin replied to Melvin- Admin's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
It used to be banned, but I don't really think it would have that much of an effect. Most footballers have peak years, which Mane may have just left. There are only two players in the world who have been consistent every season. I bet CR7 probably takes fin just in case lol. -
I receive this question daily, everyone is interested to know the cost before even showing their hair loss. I would love to hear some input from the community. I will start first. My first HT in 2014 I paid around $5 per graft, the results weren't good. Second HT I paid $7 per graft, excellent results. I had all of my procedures in California. How Much Does A Hair Transplant Cost?

How many grafts do you think I need?
Melvin- Admin replied to FilthyCasual's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
I'm a bit confused on what area you want to have restored. The pictures you showed earlier show a diffuse Norwood 5. I would imagine you would require more than 600 grafts. However, this last picture looks great. So were those other pictures before having surgery? And now this new picture is your current hair? -

How many grafts do you think I need?
Melvin- Admin replied to FilthyCasual's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Are you on finasteride? You need to preserve the hair you have before thinking about more hair transplants. You could end up with net gain if you don't stabilize your hair. Now, if you are on hair loss stabilization medication. I would say you need around 3,000 grafts to really make a significant impact. -
