I Had About 5000 Grafts Almost a Year Ago, What Can I Do? (Photos)
You have classic donor site depletion resulting from over-harvesting the grafts considering your donor density. The surgeon did not know what he/she was doing and clearly pushed your donor area well beyond what the blood supply could support and probably what your original density was. From what I see, this looks like you had too many grafts removed from your donor area. The absolute number of grafts is relevant with regard to your original donor density, although few men’s donor area can support 5000 FUE grafts. We perform Scalp Micropigmentation (https://scalpmicropigmentation.com/scar-covering/) on people like you but you will have to commit to keeping your hair shaved in the back for the rest of your life. The good news is that you will look normal after what must have been over a year of hell. Make sure that you do not have alopecia areata which could look like this? To make a diagnosis, you would need a biopsy.
