What are the risk factors and what is the incidence? I am 56 years old and a NW 6. I will be getting 3500 grafts in the anterior to mid scalp at 40 units per sq cm. Does my age put me at increased risk? I am a non smoker and not a diabetic and in good health. Should I be worried about getting necrosis?

Dear NainishThanks for the question. There is no age limit as such for a hair transplantation. But people under the age group of 18 years to 80 years usually options for hair transplantation as the symptoms of balding and spot balding occur within this span of life. I wish you all the best.
