I am scheduled for FUE (Neograft) soon and am wondering if the donor area will grow back as thick as it is now. The donor area will be in the back of my head and the transplant area will be on the top of my head near my forehead.

Answer: Donor site How many follicles are being extracted? The hair density and thickness of the hair are two different things. Density will be reduced proportional to the # grafts extracted. However, even at large grafting sessions (3k +), the density reduction is generally not even appreciated. Hair shaft thickness will likely remain the same.

Answer: NeoGraft FUE: How Will Donor Site Appear? Our patients whom we have treated with NeoGraft FUE have donor sites that look great!In fact, after a couple weeks you can't even tell that hair was removed from the donor site on the back of the head. Technically speaking, since hair is being removed from the back of your head it won't be quite as thick as it is currently, but the good news is no one should be able to notice that hair was taken from that area, as the surrounding hair will camouflage those donor sites. Best of luck to you!
