You cannot determine hair density on the Internet with a photo.  It generally requires a microscopic exam.  It is best to see a doctor for your prognosis and recommendation.

Electrolysis may be slow but if it works in your case there is nothing wrong with it.  FUE will cause scarring.

That's pretty much exactly what should happen. Your transplants will shed within the first month, and so naturally a lot will fall out with the scabs. They'll start to regrow over the next 6 months or so. If there's no blood or any signs of trauma its highly unlikely you're losing grafts.
