Regular Member SouthernYankee Posted September 11, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted September 11, 2023 Wow 11,000 grafts in one procedure?? Very interested in how this turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor A_4_Archan Posted September 12, 2023 Valued Contributor Share Posted September 12, 2023 @Andre Luiz Calheiros This is truly astonishing. It's hard to believe that any surgeon could extract so many hair grafts from the donor area. You've made an excellent choice by selecting one of the top surgeons for addressing a high Norwood scale hair loss, and I'll be keeping a close eye on your recovery and progress.

I'm trying to understand the whiteboard and how it relates to the graft total. At a glance, it looks like the follicle to hair ratio doesn't tally with the reported number of grafts and hairs. There are far more 2 hair follicles than anything else, yet the ratio of the total averages much lower than 2. I guess what I'm trying to work out is if 11000 grafts were extracted from the donor, or whether less were extracted and then split for more coverage? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly, I have not done the math myself to check but it may be the quantity of single beard hairs that brings it down?
