Hey!i I've been experiencing hair loss for a few years (started noticing it at 22, I'm currently 25) and am looking into potentially getting a transplant. My main area of concern is restoring my temple area which will hopefully give me back a hairline. Roughly how many grafts does it look like I'll need to have a good natural looking result for my temples? Thanks a bunch for any input!

We recommend our patients wait at least 9 months before considering a second FUE hair transplant. It is necessary to allow the donor area to fully heal before assessing its potential. That way, excessive scarring and overharvesting can be avoided.If you have any concerns, talk to your surgeon.
People can have these bald/thin spots on their scalp where they never had hair. Hair transplants can also be done to cover scars from surgery, accidents, burns, etc. A consultation is required to make sure the hair and scalp are healthy. Assuming they are, the area marked can be transplanted...
It appears as if your donor area is already somewhat over harvested therefore I would not recommend additional surgery. Without knowing more about your age and the course of your hair loss, I would recommend you focus on non-surgical options to prevent ongoing hair loss and potentially regrow...
