How’s my donor area? How many lifetime grafts could I possibly get? (Photo)

Question

Hello how many lifetime grafts could I possibly get from my donor area? Just got a haircut to see density well

Harold Siegel, DO · Answer

Thank you so much for sharing the picture with us, I believe your donor tissue looks amazing as we are always looking to see approximately 120 to 160 hair follicles per square centimeter. Based upon the picture it appears that you do have this. When doing a hair transplant it is so important to have a good donor sight. Your physician is only as good as the donor tissue that he is able to obtain. The more hair follicles that a physician can obtain from your donor tissue the better results you’ll receive. Thus the more density that you should expect to receive also. It is very important that your surgeon evaluate your donor area Before the procedure to make sure that there will not be a poor outcome.

Hi! Could you send photos from all angles and answer these questions: your age, when did your hair loss start, do you still loosing hairs, is it genetic?

Epameinondas Bonaros, MD · Answer

It is difficult to tell just by looking at one photo. An in-person consultation with a hair transplant surgeon would be more beneficial. There are generally between 3000 and 4000 grafts available in afro-American donor areas.
