Can someone estimate my grafts per cm²

[devnull]

Hello guys, 

I had 2 transplants, one with hattingen hair (5200 FUT grafts) and recently the other in december: 2600 FUE with HLC for Hairline and crown reenforcemance.

 Even if both procdedures would turn out good (Hattingen one did), I am still very unhappy with my hair situation and would like to do a touch up in the mid-scalp. 

If would love to have 45 grafts per cm/2 in the marked zone (Donor is still capable of 2500 Grafts).

 

What would you estimate how much grafts per cm² do I currently have in the marked area and how much grafts would I need to reach my goal.

 

Thanks a lot for helping me out!

Dear Melvin, thx for the video. 
currently it is quite hard to do an appropriate picture with my old phone, due to my blonde hair, the image is over lighten and blurry. 
The picture above was taken by the doctor, an approximate estimation would help a lot

Why don’t you go get a trischopic exam with a surgeon, and he could give you an exact answer ? 
 

It’s pretty impossible for any of us to even attempt to answer, without having any sort of scaling to hand.

It doesn't look much more than 10-15.  45 is a bit much for that area.  I'd try to get to 25-30, in which case I'd say 1200-1500 tops.

Devnull,

It probably isn’t going to be real accurate if somebody tries to give you an estimate on how many grafts per cm2 you’ve received.   Frankly, the best thing to do it would be to ask your surgeon and perhaps he or she would be able to give you a more accurate answer.

Alternately, you can attempt to resize the photo to be accurate in terms of size so that the picture of your scalp on the screen is the same size as your actual head.  You can then use a draw or paint program to create a cubic centimeter and then try to count the number of grafts In that area.  You can do this in a couple different areas in the scalp to get a general idea and an approximate average on density.

I hope this helps

Thank you, I think that’s fair, I will just wait for my next appointment and let the doctor calculate the density. 
 

After overall 7800 Grafts placed in the Norwood 5a area, even with a small crown and high sides, I feel like loosing the battle, in the end.
