If you do not trust your doctor after surgery, then it is a shame you had surgery with the doctor.  You can probably have someone count every single grafts if you believe you were cheated.

for sure.  Sometimes several grafts are placed in one site especially if the grafts are thin and small and density is desired.  Also, not all grafts survive and grow.   If you went to a reputable hair clinic you should be ok but it is still a good idea to maintain regular follow ups.

You can count grafts placed in certain area with the help of Folliscope ....Folliscope can count exact number of grafts in one square centimeter area ....after you can calculate the total area and get estimated number of grafts in the whole area ......but right way to avoid any conflict is to ask for counting before starting the placing of grafts ....

The best way to know is to get the count sheets from your surgical record. The technicians always keep a count sheet and the numbers seen on the count sheet shoult match what the doctor charged you.
