You cannot tell how many graft were implanted based on photos alone.  If you are concerned, ask your doctor.

It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen.  You can wear a hair system as long as the grafts are secure.

If you have issues after your surgery, it is best to follow up with your doctor for a recheck.  It is hard to diagnosis or tell what you have.  If you have a fever, call your doctor.
