Answer: Estimating Hair Graft Count You can estimate your hair transplant graft count by by looking at the Norwood scale to see where you fit it. Take the number of your hair loss stage and multiply it by 1000-1500. As many of doctors have estimated a minimum of around 3000 grafts, you can see a general example of the type of coverage possible on the patient below from the Dr.U Hair Clinic in Los Angeles. In this case, a strategic, diffuse placement was able to achieve a significant improvement. However, the actual coverage possible can differ depending on hair thickness and waviness as well as hair to skin color contrast. At the bottom of the article, you will find a gray tab for our hair transplant graft calculator which you can also use.

Answer: Graft counts The number of grafts needed will be determined by what a patients goals may be. Hairline restoration vs. adding density to a thinning crown will necessitate different counts. Addressing both will often times require multiple procedures.

Answer: 3500- 4000 grafts would be needed Although it is always preferable to consult with a surgeon to asses fully and realistically what can be achieved it seems like you would need to undergo 2 hair transplants in order to cover your balding / thinning areas. 3500-4000 grafts is what would be needed and that would be achieved over 2 sessions with a year break in between both. The reason why 2 sessions is needed is because of how much is permitted to extract from your donor area based on its' density and quality. You never want to over harvest the donor area or you will end up looking like hair is missing.
