Hello,
With second session you can achieve full coverage. You will need around 3000 grafts to cover the the crown area.

Epameinondas Bonaros, MD · Answer

One can only reach an accurate estimate after a consultation with a hair restoration physician that will involve trichoscopic evaluation of both the donor and the recipient areas.A proper assessment would need to consider the remaining capacity of your donor area, the hair calibre, the surface of the crown and your expectations regarding the hair density.Nevertheless, it seems that 1600-1800 grafts could offer a cosmetically acceptable result.

Hello Dear Rayan,
It seems like 2000-2500 grafts will be enough to cover your crown area. I need to see also your donor area to make a specific estimation since you had already a hair transplant session with 3500 grafts before.

It depends on your donor area. But what I can see from the picture you need between 1500-2000 to cover all the area and get the density you are looking for

Robert Jones, MD, FISHRS · Answer

A crown area typically takes a lot of grafts to create coverage, usually 40 to 50 grafts per square cm.
Measure the area and multiply by 45. My guess is that you will need in the range of 2500- 3000 grafts.
