Hello doctors. The first two pics attached are of mine with 14 days of growth. I am not satisfied with the result and i am going for another procedure of beard transplant. I am attaching 3 more pics which i took from google. I want to have that fullness. Can you tell me how many grafts will be needed to achieve the same density or at least 70%. Assuming that I will grow my beard for 1 month without trimming. Please guide me. Thank you Note:- my hairs at back of my head are thin not thick.

You can try minoxidil on your beard but this may not produce more than peach fuzz hair. Try it and see what happens.
