Regular Member Baldy1974 Posted March 7, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted March 7, 2020 How many grafts can safely be extracted? I am receiving different opinions from different doctors? Just wondering what you guys think.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member CosmoKramer Posted March 8, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted March 8, 2020 Maybe post photos of the sides as well to get a proper opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member paddyirishman Posted March 8, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted March 8, 2020 About 4500 grafts could be extracted in my opinion. You could also use your beard grafts where you could harvest another 4500 grafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member duchaine Posted March 9, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted March 9, 2020 (edited) no more than 3500 but I suppose less Edited March 9, 2020 by duchaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Glenn Charles Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I think that to determine the number of grafts that could be taken from your donor area you would need to be evaluated in person.

Senior Member Rolandas Posted March 14, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted March 14, 2020 Back of the head can look amazing, but sides often times are much thinner, thus reducing overall donor area/supply quite a bit (my own head!). After my FUE (6 weeks ago) my back of donor healed extremely quickly and as of right now I can shave my back and you won't notice any scars, but sides healed much slower and scaring is more visible. 1st FUE - 28/01/2020 - 3659 grafts - Dr. Bruno Ferreira 2nd FUE - 03/06/2021 - 2881 grafts - Dr. Bruno Ferreira Follow me on YouTube I'm not a medical professional, thus any information given by me is my own observation and should not be treated as professional advice.
