Regular Member Ccd99 Posted May 22 Regular Member Share Posted May 22 In all honesty, it does not look like 5000 grafts to me, closer to 3000-3500 I'd say. The main issue you will have is the coverage, because the grafts were so loosely placed in the crown and mid-scalp area, it is going to make hardly any visual difference once the hair grows out, especially because your crown is on the larger side and nearly 100% bald. I hope I am wrong but I have seen this sort of thing before on other cases and that's always the outcome. What would have been a better approach by the doctor is to focus on the frontal third with those 5000? (3500) grafts, and it would have given you a much better visual difference, framed your face and then allowed you to come back for a second surgery in the future to treat the remaining mid-scalp and crown if donor allowed. Consultation with Dr Bruno Ferreira - Nov 2023 - ✅ - link to thread documenting my pre-hair restoration journey First surgery with Dr Bruno Ferreira - Sept 2024 - ❌ - approx. 3500 grafts to frontal third - thread to be created Second surgery with Dr Bruno Ferreira - TBD - ❌ - approx. 2500 grafts to mid-scalp and vertex - thread to be created Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Shadman Posted May 22 Senior Member Share Posted May 22 @Hayat7 in my opinion doesn't look like 5000 grafts. And the placement of grafts were even worse. Who was your surgeon ?
