You also need to notice that I don't give Patients 20 year old hairlines, but give them resessions in the temporal regions to guarantee plenty of donor hair for the future. I think it is very wise for you to be thinking of the future because you may never know what balding you may have down the road. Thank you for all your support!

    Thank you very much for your response Dr. Alexander. It seems like doctors are displaying bigger and bigger numbers just to get our attention. I much prefer taking it a little slow and seeing how it goes then having 5000 grafts taken when I might not even need that many. Who knows if I would have been happy with 2800? I'd be out much more money and could have been just as happy with less.
