mr789person Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 After 1 HT I am wondering if this could be filled out any more. This is obviously exposing the 'worst' angle. I think I recall that this is only 400 grafts and includes my temples as well (which is obviously a heck of a lot fewer than some HTs). I have thick hair so I imagine that not a lot of grafts were needed (they said they found some grafts with 7 hairs in). Yet it still feels more sparse than desired. Is it true that only a certain density can be achieved in one go? Would you think that I could get this filled this in a bit more? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get it filled a little more if you want more density in the hairline. It would be helpful if you could share more pictures. That would help us gauge your condition in a proper manner. Are you also taking finasteride? Edited April 21, 2022 by Eugenix Hair Sciences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahal Hair Transplant Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) Mr789person, You can always add more density and refine the hairline as needed which looks like it would help you by looking at the photo you presented. To give you a better idea of how many grafts you might need it would be helpful if you presented some additional photos showing alternative angles of the scalp. For instance, if you could take and post a picture from the front tilting your head down about 45 degrees, that would be helpful. A photo from the top would also help.

mr789person Posted April 21, 2022 Author Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) Thanks for your responses. I have attached some more photos. As you can see by the last picture, it looks like it will progress further back, it is already way way way thinner than the density on sides/back. I am more concerned with addressing the front section for the moment but is it too early to address the section further back as well? I can't take Finasteride, experienced crippling side effects which thankfully passed upon stopping, but I use minoxidil. Any idea how many grafts I might need for the front/temples? Am really looking for a good plan of action for the future for a continued battle against the recession so any advice on that would also be appreciated.

If you are experiencing side effects with oral finasteride then you can try topical finasteride. Maybe you won't have side effects with those. If you do not take finasteride then the baldness will progress further. You must be prepared for another transplant in the newly emptied areas in the future. You're hairline zone can be transplanted.
