That said I think maybe 2900 grafts for that big area was quite small graft number. Good thing is that it looks like you have a decent donor still.

Regular Member stratos Posted December 5, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 5, 2021 Yes I know, unfortunately I had 3 HT at the past with zero results before Dr Yaman's 2 operations therefore we didn't have many grafts available to place. I will wait and see if there are any grafts available to improve my picture. Thanks for the post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member stratos Posted December 5, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) Yes unfortunately, many years ago. 1 FUT and 2 FUE all in Greece. FUT when I was 22, huge mistake. don't know grafts, either clinic does! FUEs when I was 30 and 32 probably 2500-3000 in total , I am not sure. Very sad. Last two were at Dr Yaman, I am happy to find him and try there. Edited December 5, 2021 by stratos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it can improve some, you need to have more patience with crown region, usually it can improve alot 12+ months up to 18 months. That said I think you might need another transplant to get some more density and after that you will hopefully be set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see new hair but is thin in comparison with hair at vertex. Does it depend on where they are taken from? or that is because they were placed between other hair?

The results in vertex and crown should take longer than in the mid-front region. I dont think there were alot of grafts placed in the mid region though? Mainly Dr Yaman focuse on crown+vertex on this one? You need to just be patient and wait it out really, there is not much to do than to see what kind of coverage you get from this and go from there. You need to wait atleast 12 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is, if you dont have any side effects? It helps to slow down the thinning process in the donor area(the transplanted hair you now have in the front).
