I had a hair transplant in May 2021 for 2500 grafts. I had my doubts that 2500 grafts were actually implanted, and I addressed it with my ISHRS doctor who assured me that he used 2500 grafts. Now that I'm seeing a little less density on the left side of my hairline, I'm having doubts again. I know that it can take up to 18 months to see full results, so I am not including current pictures, but based on these post-op pics, does it look like 2500 grafts? Overall opinion on if it looks well done?
