HT - Jan 2022 Istanbul - 4900 grafts- Sapphire FUE

[HTnovice]

Hello,

Been a month since my HT in Istanbul, want to share my journey with you guys. I had my HT in istanbul in Jan 2022- 4900 grafts. 460 grafts were single, 1920 were double, 2400 were triple and around 100 were quadruple. 3500 grafts placed on the front line side,  280 on the midline and 1100 in the crown area. Procedure took around 9 hrs. 
 

below are the pictures until 1 month after HT. Please feel free to share your opinions and tips.

Could you mention which clinic and which doctor did your surgery? 

I see no whorl pattern constructed on the crown. The grafts are all planted in rows!

I want to skip the clinic details for now, i haven't done enough research before going forward with my HT, went with a referral who had good results. I shall wait for 8/12 months to see full results before i give details about the clinic. 
 

I did not realize about the whorl pattern till now. How bad would it impact the overall result? please let me know how the progress/recovery looks until now.

It's hard to tell at this point. Probably won't matter much if you grow your hair longer and comb it backward. It may look a bit unnatural when the hair is short. Only time will tell. Just to give you a perspective the below image is probably the direction in which your natural hair would have grown out. Therefore, the transplanted grafts should have the same direction and pattern.
