Which factors determine number of grafts transplanted?

Number of grafts transplanted depends on a number of factors:

  • Natural density of hair
  • Hair type (straight, curly etc.)
  • Whether another transplant has been done before
  • Gender and age

Patients are recommended to share​ their pictures or a short video to have a personalized assessment.
