2400 Grafts! Hair Transplant #2

Just got back from my second Hair Transplant. This Transplany was to address the crown and the thinness in zone 3. This was different from the first procedure as it was FUE. I will say the difference between Strip and FUE is night and day. It is only day #2 and my doner area feels fantastic. I virtually have no pain throughout my whole head. We managed to get 2,400 grafts. 2,100 grafts for the crown, 300 grafts were placed into the thinning areas in zone 3 to help out there. I had 400 grafts placed in the crown in HT#1 that had just started growing, combine that with the 2,100 this time around makes a total of 2,500 grafts for zone 4. My estimated break down goes something like this:

Hairline - 2,000 Grafts
Zone 2 - 1,060 Grafts
Zone 3 - 900 Grafts
Crown - 2,500 Grafts.
Total - 6,400 Grafts

This leaves me 3k-5k more for future procedures if need be. I do think this will be the last one for a while though, I will pretty much be back to a full head of hair!!! Check out the coverage and density, I'll finally have a full crown to go with my hairline and front!



Really like this density in these next two!










Here is a picture of my prior strip scar, nice and thin. I went to the gym about a month after the first surgery, looks like it did not affect my scar. This also shows the doner area and where the grafts were taken.... Its much much less painful then strip. I am currently at day#2 and it feels pretty much painless.
