How many grafts do you think would be okay to cover my crown and give volume and density? (Photos)

We estimate 1500-2000 grafts to restore the crown area and cover with homogenous density. You should know that the density cannot be the same as before the hair loss. The crown has 80% grafts success regorwth after the surgery and this is due to the low blood circulation on that zone.

Hello,
Yes, you can have hair transplant. You will need around 5500-6000 grafts to achieve full coverage on the crown. Only the back of the head will not be enough for donor with 1 session, if you have body hair such as beard and chest, those can be used as alternative donor areas. If you do not have body hair you will need 2 sessions.

you will need hair transplant. but start prp/acell for now to thicken what you have left and stat theradome asap (see link).

You need a formal evaluation to see what type of hair loss you may have. when you have hairless its best to do a full hormonal workup for internal optimization plus scalp biopsies or scrapings to rule out any stress related, inflammatory, autoimmune or infectious causes of hair loss. In general most people with early hair loss have telogen (stress related) and/or androgenetic (normal aging) and both can be treated with in office treatments like steroid injections, PRP/acell, Exosomes and at home treatments like oral medications, oral vitamins like Viviscal, topical exfoliating sprays like Restorsea, and weekly growth factors like anteagemd. See an expert for an evaluation. If hair loss is significant it may requires hair transplant (follicular unit translation).

Greetings thanks for your question,
you will need two sessions of hair transplantation, the first operation can made 4000-5000 grafts and the second session can be made with 3500 grafts.

Hello Stefenex1,
I can't see your frontal line but you stated that you had no hair loss issue in front area. So to cover up the crown area 3250-3500 grafts will be fine.

It is always best to visit with a specialist for an in person examination. Here you will have the opportunity to discuss your goals and what you can expect in terms of results. You may be a candidate for SmartGraft. This hair loss treatment transfers individual grafts from the donor site to the areas needed. It is performed under local anesthetic with minimal down time. Most patients report little to no pain. There are no incisions, no stitches, and no linear scar. Some results can be seen immediately with full results after nine months.

You’ll need about 4000 surviving grafts (follicular units) to give light coverage and about 8000 for thicker coverage. You may opt to reduce the size of the bald area rather than transplant everything lightly. This is a challenging procedure in your case so be sure to see a surgeon who can realistically review expectations. You may or may not feel 4000 grafts provides what you are hoping for. So expectations are really important here. If you clearly understand what to expect you may be pleased. You can calculate your density needs yourself too! We just need to imagine the area is a circle. You just need to measure the distance across your widest part of the scalp to get the diameter and the cut the number in half to get the radius. For a light density, you can calculate as 3.14 times the radius x the radius x 20. For a thicker density, you can calculate as 3.14 times the radius x the radius x 38. What you will quickly see is you need an extremely large number of grafts or a smaller area to transplant.
