My guess would be slightly more than 1,500 grafts, maybe closer to 2,500 grafts to get adequate density. Hopefully someone else chimes in whos had crown work. Btw is the redness on your scalp red because of a sunburn?

1500 could be enough.  I had 763 for a similar area but have very thick hair strands.

Based on those photos, I think 1,500 grafts should be enough for your crown.

My advice does not constitute a patient-physician relationship nor as medical advice and all medical questions/concerns should be addressed to your medical provider.

This was what a little over 700 grafts did for my crown, and it's even thicker now.
