Regular Member BackFromTheBrink Posted August 5, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) Similar story to my own (though I'm 2500 grafts less). Do you have any overhead shots to show the crown improvement from the 2nd surgery? Edited August 5, 2023 by BackFromTheBrink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Belve Posted August 5, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted August 5, 2023 Good one. The crown still needs improvement though. How many grafts were implanted on each area in total (frontal third, midscalp and crown) ? Only 1399 were implanted on the crown of the total 7900 grafts ?

Hello @Chka, Please note that the assessment may take 7-10 working days. Whether you are a candidate or not will be communicated to you in written form. Please follow up with your case manager. Have a great day ahead. Jose Navarrete---www.fuecapilar.comemail: myhair@fuecapilar.comTlf/whatsapp: +90 542 250 0909 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
