Can I get 4000 grafts done in a two day surgery?

September 15, 2019
Asked By:SigmundFresh in Boston, MA

I have had two hair surgery, one in 2016 and one in 2017. The first time was to restore hairline and the second was to add density, I believe with 800 graft. By doing research and using a online calculator that evaluate my situation, looks like I need an average 4000 grafts to cover from the hairline to the Occipital line. I hear that I would need a two day operations for that. Is that achievable? Or is 4000 not suggested in a 2 days surgery? Should I do 2000 one year and 2000 the next?
