Regular Member gawwdd Posted December 10, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted December 10, 2022 Hello, I am under doing my hair transplant surgery today with Dr. Das. She reassessed my hairline and expected to do around 2800 grafts for the frontal part and she seems bit hesitated to do some crown work. But I’d like to get some work done in the crown as it is clearly evident that I’m bald there. Note: Due to cancer history, I’ve been advised by specialists to not take finasteride/minoxidil. This is one of the main reasons I wanna get some work done in my crown as I know it won’t get any better. What do you guys think I should do? do you think the hair grafts estimation for proper density to my hairline? I will keep updating this post on the progress.

Senior Member general-etwan Posted December 10, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted December 10, 2022 Is 2800 the max donor being taken? I'd think some crown work can and should be done, but most of the grafts should be focused on the midscalp and front, with the crown receiving relatively less work. It likely won't be perfect, but I think it could be improved a bit. Instagram: ethanlculver Eugenix (Drs.

Do you think I should discuss on this further for the mid scalp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted December 10, 2022 Valued Contributor Share Posted December 10, 2022 One thing about Eugenix is that they are masters of using an economy of grafts for great coverage. Definitely communicate your wishes though to Dr Das.

Senior Member mrmane85 Posted December 10, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted December 10, 2022 I would 100% discus your wishes and concerns with Dr Das. I would also look at being as conservative as possible with your hairline so you can get good density overall. Good luck with your surgery! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
