Crikey, @Belve @jjalay get a room!! I want to reassure @yatite not to worry at this stage, I had 4100 grafts at a ‘hair mill’ in Turkey and at your stage I had the same worries but 10 weeks on, it looks great. Whilst I appreciate jjalay point a view he also made me nervous about my transplant. Any way too early to tell if over harvested. Good luck brother and happy growing. 

Right on! Good to hear

Sorry if i was a bit rough with my opinion, i didnt mean to scare you or discourage you, just told you my opinion based on what i have seen so far. Right now the only thing you can do is wait for 6 months to see if it gets any better or not. If not smp in the donor area after 6 months is a great option. In order to not stand out right now you should shave your head on the donor area to blend it in. Minoxidil topical on the donor area and msm tablets might alos help. Do you have any pictures of the donor area before the surgery?

Ok no worries, thanks

Here's the donor area beforehand.

The Hermest person doing the follow up is saying that I shouldn't cut my hair shorter than a number 3 (9mm)

Sorry dude but this is absolutely common in the Industry especially when you go to a hairmill, but it does not mean he have been overharvested. Have you ever had a HT? I think others haven posted what I already said so I dont have more to add. 

No that was the first one

Thanks for the replies.

To answer the questions, the surgery was done in one day and here's what it looked like the day after the operation 

Hi, 

I've got a hair transplant at Hermest in Istanbul 2.5 weeks ago.

Before going to Turkey, I sent pictures and they said they would transplant 2500 to 3500 graphs, but for some reason, they ended up transplanting 4700.

It's now been 17 days since the operation and the donor area seems very thin.  I'm wondering if it's too early to know if they over harvested or if it will look normal eventually.

The hermest person following up with me on whatsapp says it's normal to look like this and that it will go away, but I have trouble believing him
