I am excited to see what it will look like at 6 months
If you read my 6/21/24 post, I discussed the number of grafts and its relationships with the size of the recipient area. Most average Caucasian men have about 7000-8000 grafts (plus or minus 20%) to take from the donor area for their lifetime. Asians and Africans have significantly less donor hair. Are you old enough to know your final balding pattern (over 26, at the least)? 4100 grafts should be more than enough to return your normal donor density to the area you transplanted. What worries me is that if you become significantly bald in your late 20s or early 30s, you will need more hair to take from the donor area. You might be unable to supply a balding Class 6 or 7 pattern, possibly resorting to beard hair if that happens. I believe that every person having a hair transplant needs a personalized Master Plan that considers their worst-case projected hair loss pattern, the value of their hair (fine, medium, or coarse), and the quantity of hair that can be harvested from the donor area (that is a number that is easily measured and calculated). With that plan in place, there are never surprises. If your surgical team did their job correctly, as I see it looks good, you would have more than enough hair for the balding you presented with.
