Can grafts that contain 2-3-4 hairs be split into several ‘one-hair grafts?

Asked By:fierens in europe

To obtain a natural hairline-temple closure angle, etc. it is key to insert one-hair grafts in the forntline and than gradually grafts from more hairs (for density, etc.) When you have a weak amount of one-hair graft, can a graft that contains 2-3-4 hairs be split into several one-hair grafts? My doctor told me that he would do that to obtain the most natural hairline, etc.but ones I received the detail of number of grafts, hairs/graft I saw that he did not do that (20% one hair grafts).
