Hi all, I would love some third party opinions. How does it look? is it good work? is it over/under harvested? pass some judgement on it please!

I asked to keep as much existing hair as possible… I was treated very well on the day by my clinic and the aftercare is very good too.

I was told of the 2150 or so grafts, if all goes well, I should get around 5000 hairs. The surgeon seemed optimistic. 

Nothing like some third party anonymous opinions to validate or worry though! I’d love to hear. Thanks all.

Looks like a good 1st transplant - I'm surprised that the donor wasn't more spread out - but you can always do that for the next surgery.  I'm not a fan of such a small area being harvested w/so many grafts though.  Will be interesting to see how much density you end up getting visually speaking.

Next surgery? hopefully not, but I am prepared for that. Was made well aware of the need for future surgeries given I’m 24.

Do you mean density in the front or back? I agree the donor area is harvested in quite a tight box but 2150 follicles isn’t a massive amount

I'm assuming the doctor harvested everything from a small area so you didn't have to cut all your hair so short.  I would prefer a tight hair cut and getting grafts from all over.  That's what I did for over 5,000 grafts.  You may get 5,000 total hairs if you have enough doubles and triples but that's a generous expectation.
