Hello. I had FUE 9 days ago. 3000 grafts. Do you think that my donor is over harvested? Thank you.
Answer: Over harvesting donor area At only nine day post-op it is a little too early to determine if donor area is over harvested. You need to let thing heal and then post new photos of the donor area . If you had at least average donor density to begin with you should still have some remaining usable donor hair for future harvesting if necessary.

Answer: Is my donor area over harvested? Over harvesting a donor area is a function of how many grafts are removed and the caliber of your hair shafts. With fine hair and lower density, sometimes 2500 grafts is the maximum. With the average donor area there are 15,200 follicular units so 3000 grafts is usually not an over harvest. The area is still a little pink and the hair is a little short in the harvested area. Give it some time and follow up with your surgeon.

Answer: Your donor area will always look "thinner" proportionate to the number of hairs taken out after a FUE harvesting surgery. Your donor area will always look "thinner" proportionate to the number of hairs taken out after a FUE harvesting surgery. The hairs will NOT grow back from the donor area (where it was taken). It is best to wait for your donor area hair to grow out before determining if it was overharvested.

Answer: Too early to comment After 9 days of post-operation, it won't be possible to provide an accurate answer to your question. I would give it easily a month or more to see if there is any improvement.

Answer: Overharvested Good question. I think you need to be patient and wait at least a couple of months until the donor area grows out a bit and then see how it looks. Good luck to you.
