A question for those that have had their 2nd (or more) HT? How many grafts was the surgeon able to harvest? I know this will vary for everyone but would appreciate your sharing the info.

 

I just scheduled my 2nd HT with H&W for February 15th and plan to post some pre-op pic's closer to the time. I had my first HT a year ago and only received 1200. I've been told the 2nd varies quite a bit. I'm going for as many as I can get.....up to 5000 if possible! I've been told since it's the 2nd HT they may not be able to get as many.

 

How many were you able to achieve on the 2nd or more?

 

Thanks,

I think you will be at the right place for the biggest possibly session you can have, as well as in great hands. It will very greatly on every person. I have been told usually a little less than the first session, however in your case you had a very small sesion this would not be aplicable to you. good luck
