How many FUE grafts for crown area? (Photo)

May 26, 2019
Asked By:misterpete in England, United Kingdom

I was Norwood 4; 5500 FUE grafts performed on my scalp including crown, over two sessions. I'm really thrilled with the result. However, my crown is still a little weaker than the rest. Upon speaking to my surgeon, he strongly recommended I do an extra1000 grafts for my crown. I am mainly concerned about my donor supply. Moreover, I'm not even sure 1000 grafts would significantly improve it. I have attached photo of my hair in full lighting. Please could you advise on reinforcing the crown

Answer: Hair transplant is not about how many grafts you need but understanding your goals and expectations.
