Density clues immediately after transplant

[JM1987]

Hi!  I had a FUE hair transplant 2 weeks ago.    5700 hairs (not sure how many grafts) to lower and reinforce the temples and reinforce the front/ lower the front very slightly. Two weeks in, and I’m wondering if the density I’m seeing now will be what I can expect once it falls out and grows back in again, or if it will be more than that?  I guess I’m worried it’s not going to be dense enough.  I have noticed some shedding of the short hairs the last few days, but I’m not sure if I noticed when that started, so it’s hard to gauge if much has disappeared. 
 

Any thoughts on how anyone thinks this will turn out?  Or specifically, if all I see now is representative of what I will see in the end?   Pics from today, 15 day mark, attached. 
 

Any other thoughts or observations are appreciated.  
 

Thanks,

Jim

Have you got anymore pics ? Pre + post op pics would really help. Did you go to Dr Reddy ? I ask as he normally is per hair not graft. Could be 2.4K grafts at a very  rough approximation. From what I can see the density implanted looks fine.

@JohnAC71 Thanks for the reply!  Dr. Kouremada-Zioga.  I think they used to work together. It was a great experience and she was wonderful.    Here’s some more pics pre and post op   pre and post op!

I think your going to be more than fine. Work looks really good and density Implanted is very good from the pics you have shown. If you ask the clinic I’m sure they will tell you the graft count and the density implanted per cm2.

At 14 days it's really impossible to get a true appraisal. I understand your concerns but unfortunately patience is the key for another 3-4 months at least. The work looks clean. All the best!

You can get a good idea of density like around the first few days.  Week 2, absolutely no idea, since you might have already lost half the grafts to shedding by then... who knows how many.

 

I took some photos of my transplant very early on just for this reason, to count the density, such as this:
