Is it possible to achieve 80–90 grafts/cm² with multiple hair transplants?

Terrific5750
Would it be possible to fill the temples of someone who naturally has hair in that area (despite no history of hair loss) to the same density as the surrounding non-bald regions? I understand that transplanting a high density of grafts (e.g., 80–90 grafts/cm²) in a single session is generally not recommended due to concerns about graft survivability. But what if the procedure is split into two sessions: first placing around 50 grafts/cm², then following up with an additional 30–40 grafts/cm² in a second session to reach the target density? Would this staged approach be feasible and safe? Additionally, could medications like Cialis or Viagra during the recovery period help improve graft survival by enhancing blood flow to the scalp?
