is my Donor Hair at the back inadequate for a 4,800 FUE graft? (photos)

There are limitations with consultation online with photos.  If you want an assessment it is best to see a doctor in person.Harvesting 1000 or 4000 grafts should not be your focus as much as what a doctor can provide in terms of final results. (normal looking hair line, etc)

I always caution anyone going abroad to get a hair transplant surgery. While I understand the cost of the surgery may be cheaper, its most often true that you get what you pay for. The truth is, doctors outside of the U.S. are not held to the same high standard of care that U.S. doctors are. This opens you up to increased risks all around. Including but not limited to, infection, scarring, shock loss, and a botched surgery. Unfortunately, I have multiple patients that come in every week seeking a hair transplant repair due to a botched surgery from abroad. The best thing you can do is thoroughly research your prospective hair transplant surgeon. You should make sure that they are experienced, certified by the ISHRS, and have positive testimonials. 

Regarding your donor area, this is best assessed via an in-person consultation. Pictures don’t allow us to accurately gauge the density. It should be noted that extracting 4800 grafts in one procedure greatly increases your risk of scarring and shock loss in the donor area. Keep this in mind as you have consultations with hair transplant surgeons. You can either spend a little more to have a hair transplant done right the first time, or spend a lot more and go through a lot of stress when you try to have a bad surgery fixed.

Thanks for posting your photos. Based on them with a combined surgery 4500+ grafts can be taken out from your donor side. But with performing only one method surgery we would not recommend it to you as it can damage your donor side. For more details you could always contact our clinic and we will be happy to assist you during making a decision for procedure.
