Im going for a FUE transplant and the doctor suggested that they will transplant 2900 grafts as per my requirement from the donor area i.e the backside of my head. I have two points 1. How long can i grow my hair after the transplantation, i have read it somewhere that after FUE i will have to sport short haircut and cant grow hair too long. 2. Is 2900 graft a big transplantation and will it give a bald look in the donor area.

Answer: FUE You definitely are not required to have a short haircut after FUE. You'll have to shave it down for the procedure itself, but afterward you can grow it out as long as you'd like. As for your donor area, the typical male can donate 5000+ grafts before noticeable thinning in the donor area. Assuming the hair in your donor area is normal, it is doubtful that 2900 grafts will cause a noticeable difference, but without examining you in person there's no way to guarantee that. If you're unsure you can always get a second opinion.

Answer: FUE Hair Transplant Thank you for asking the question. I think maybe you misunderstood what your Doctor had suggested. You can keep your hair as long as you want you can make a ponytail, if you want after a few months. Hair grow takes at least 9 to 10 months for a complete result and after that it grows indefinitely for as long as you want them to grow so you are not required to keep it short just you can style it the way you want. 2900 grafts is not a large Transplant at all and it leave no donor side effects at all.
