The process of an FUT hair transplant requires cutting a strip of tissue in the donor area, from which folicular units will be extracted. How can a hair surgeon precisely determine how much grafts exist in the strip he removed? Since I am paying per graft, I would be appalled if only 900-something grafts could be extracted and I payed for a 1000! What if the strip has 1200-something grafts and I only payed for 1000....what will happen to the remaining 200? Can I take legal action against this?
Answer: 1,000 or not? You really don't know how many follicles you are getting. You must have trust in your doctor. If you have doubts, perhaps you should go somewhere else. I'm confident there is a Center you can find that will put your concerns at ease. The "right place" is one where you know you are getting top quality care (which means, 1,000 grafts harvested and placed properly).

Answer: Number of follicles per strip I guess you have to have trust in your surgeon. To remove any confusion we perform a live count in front of the patient and the number is written in the notes. I measure the number of hairs in the donor area through magnification prior to strip removal in three separate areas and these figures are used to make an estimation of strip size. Generally patients are always given 100 follicles extra to further avoid confusion.

Answer: Number of Grafts The doctor counts and keeps track of the number of grafts they insert during the procedure. Afterwards they should tell you this number and be able to provide the medical record which would confirm that amount. If you do not trust your doctor to do so then you need to find another doctor.
