Do I Have Any Donor Left After My 10 Hair Transplants?

From 1998 to 2004 I had about ten transplant surgeries done,and each time I had between 200 – 300 grafts done. After having read your blog the last few months, I now wish I would have had fewer surgeries, and more grafts done at those times. For the most part I am pleased with the results that were achieved, but I would like to have one more transplant surgery to hit those last few problem areas. Is there any way for me to tell if there is any donor area still available? My scars have appeared to have healed well. Since the last surgery I have moved 1500 miles from where my doctor is located, so if I am to have any additional work done I will need to locate a new doctor. I would appreciate your thoughts, and I really enjoy this forum you provide. Thank you.

Your situation requires an in-person examination to learn the opportunities and risks for more hair transplant surgery. The distribution of the scars and the width of the scars will probably dictate what can be done in one more surgery. I have an airfare reimbursement program offered to those traveling from out-of-town (see NHI Travel Program). I would be happy to talk with you over the phone to define your problem and goals.
