Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted September 13 Valued Contributor Share Posted September 13 @Approach I'm not reply in response to this thread but you must remember that scalp hair has an anagen phase of two - seven years, beard hair two months to one year and chest hair one month to six months. 1 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not a huge amount. If you are looking for someone who can consistently successfully do 11,000 + grafts in one session for only a few cents per graft, you're not going to find it. Unfortunately NW 6 and up need a very large amount of grafts to get full coverage. Whether you have it done all at once from a Dr like Pittella or if you have it done in several sessions over 3 or 4 years, its still going to cost you a lot in total. I'm sure this guy wishes he was closer to a NW 3 and only needed 3000 grafts, but that wasn't the case and he has no say in his genetics. 1 1 Al Forum Moderator (formerly BeHappy) I am a paid forum moderator for hairrestorationnetwork.com.

Regular Member CharlesBarkley Posted September 13 Regular Member Share Posted September 13 This is amazing. And it´s just 5 months 🤩 Where did the BHT and chest grafts got implanted? Can you feel the difference when you touch it? Did you pay same amount for scalp grafts and BHT grafts or when you say 5$ you are talking the average? Thanks a lot for sharing these photos and your evolution, looking incredible already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much for the kind words. Sometimes, when I touch it, I do feel a slight difference, but I'm not entirely sure. And there is no difference in price depending on the region from which the grafts were taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty I was worried about the texture and how it would turn out, but now, after 5 months, my worries have eased because it seems to be growing well and without any issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like my beard and didn’t want to take too much from it, so he considered it a good choice and liked the quality of the chest hairs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sorry to say, but it really is a high amount if you look at it that way. However, I can assure you it was my only option, and I prepared for it; it wasn’t easy. Nowhere in the world could I get that amount with just one session, which is what I wanted. To resolve everything at once.

I sound pretty ignorant here, but, I'm still slightly confused. Is your point: One wants as many of his hairs as possible to be in anagen phase- at any given moment? Thus, he will have the most possible density? Ty! Edited September 14 by Approach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted September 15 Valued Contributor Share Posted September 15 No what I’m trying to say is to just remember the limitations of body hair. 1 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
