How many times a person can go through hair transplantation?

This depend on the person's donor hair supply.In GENERAL, I usually say, you can harvest about 8000 grafts in a person's life time.I have on several occasions harvested over 10,000 grafts with multiple surgeries.In general, you can divide this maximum number of grafts in to the surgeries.Example:  4 surgeries of 2000 grafts each will total 8000 grafts.

Hi and thanks for your question.  There is not a certain number of transplants that a person can have.  The number depends on the density of the hair in the donor areas on the back and sides of the scalp which is where we can borrow hair follicles from.  Patients who have very dense hair in the donor areas can do more hair transplants and patients with thin hair can do fewer sessions.  The Smartgraft device which is what I use is great because I can borrow hair follicles evenly over the entire donor area as opposed to the old fashioned technique where a strip of scalp is removed from the back of the scalp and a long scar is created.

The number of hair restoration surgeries that a person can undergo will depend on the supply of donor follicles that remain. These, of course, would be used as grafts for subsequent operations.Donor follicles are conventionally derived from the head. But if these regions become depleted, it is possible to acquire up to thousands additional grafts from body regions such as the face, neck, chest, abdomen etc. This would require specifically designed extraction tools and the expertise of a surgeon who specializes in the extraction of body hair. It is not uncommon for patients to undergo three or more procedures if they have the donor supplies to achieve their goals. Sometimes multiple surgeries are necessary to repair unsatisfactory results from past surgeries. Below is one such example:
