Everything You Need to Know About 8000 Grafts Hair Transplant

When people who are thinking about getting a Turkish hair transplant to talk to a hair transplant specialist, one of the most common questions they ask is, “How many hair grafts will I need for my hair transplant?” 

There is no one answer to this question because the number of hair grafts a person needs depends on many factors and differs from person to person. A trained surgeon would have to look at your hair type and the amount of hair in the donor area. 

Then, he can figure out how many hair grafts you need for your hair transplant surgery. Before getting an 8000 grafts hair transplant, it’s important to know what hair grafts are and how they work. 

Your hair grows in clusters of one, two, three, or even four strands. Hair grafts are just groups of strands of hair. During a hair transplant, hair grafts are taken from the donor area, which is often the back of the head. With the Sapphire FUE hair transplant method, about 2000 grafts could be transplanted in one sitting.

 

How Many Hair Grafts Will I Need For Hair Transplant In Case Of Severe Hair Loss?

Grades 7 and 8 are the most severe types of hair loss (grade 8: thin or shrunken donors with older age or if donors give less than 4000 grafts in the first session). Anyway, hair transplantation can still help with these kinds of hair loss. But, to get 8000 hair grafts, it’s very important to have a healthy donor area (at least 5-6 grade) in order to extract these many grafts.

Also, for grades 7-8, you need 8,000 grafts for full coverage, but as we can’t have them all only from the donor area on the head, we need to use a second donor area (chest, beard).

Depending on the shape of the hairline and the size of the transplant area, the Grades 7-8 hair loss area usually needs between 6000 and 8000 grafts. In any case, 4000–5000 grafts might be enough to cover the front, middle, and top of the head with a decent amount of hair.

Sapphire FUE hair transplant technique is recommended for hair loss sufferers of Grades 7 & 8. During the preoperative consultation, the expert surgeons at BlueMagic in Turkey design the hairline based on what the patient wants and what they think is best. They always put in as many grafts as possible to get the best coverage and density. 

The safe number of grafts that can be taken from the donor area is what determines the maximum number of grafts that can be taken. This is based on the size and hair density of the donor area.

How Long Are The 8000 Grafts Secure After A Hair Transplant?

Typically, newly transplanted hair grafts are secure in their new spot on the scalp somewhere between 10 and 14 days following the procedure of hair transplantation. It will take some time for the newly transplanted grafts to become accustomed to their new place. 

During this period of adjustment, it is possible that some of the hair grafts will become loosened and fall out. However, this is quite normal, and within a short period of time, your grafts will become secure.

How Much Do 8000 Grafts Hair Transplants Cost?

Most hair transplants in Turkey cost between $2 and $10 per graft. But this number could be different from one surgeon to another and from one patient to another. As we know, the number of hair grafts needed for the surgery is used to figure out how much a hair transplant will cost.  Learn the updated hair transplant prices here!

So, it is hard to give a specific price for the surgery. So, you can’t answer the question “How much do 8000 graft transplants cost in Turkey?” without having a doctor look at you. When it comes to hair transplant surgeries, Turkey is a lot less expensive than other European countries. 

This is because the cost of living is higher in those countries. So, the fact that DHI hair transplants in Turkey are cheaper doesn’t mean that the surgery isn’t as good.

What Precautions Are To Be Taken After An 8000 Grafts Hair Transplant?

Even though hair transplants are permanent, that doesn’t mean that the hair can be left unprotected. After getting an 8000 grafts hair transplant, you should take extra care of the hair that’s been transplanted.

Your new grafts are delicate and require special care to grow properly. To give yourself the best chance, it’s important to do everything your clinic tells you to do after your surgery and to have a lot of personal will and dedication.

• The day following your FUE hair transplant, your surgeon examines the bulbs and the caregiver applies red Betadine. The bandage is removed and the patient is taught how to shampoo in the clinic.
• You will be given a list of medicines to take over the next 8-10 days that you must take exactly as prescribed.
• First two nights, sleep in a semi-sitting position with a neck pillow. This will prevent forehead swelling and sheet contact. The recipient region can touch the pillow, but an absorbent disposable diaper is recommended to absorb scar sebum.
• After surgery, it’s best to wear a shirt with buttons or a T-shirt with a wide neck so you don’t accidentally pull the T-shirt on your head and cause pain.
• Sexual activity isn’t allowed for the first 10–15 days after the hair transplant surgery so that the temperature of the cranial epidermis doesn’t rise, which would hurt the grafts’ ability to heal.
• For the next ten days after the hair transplant, don’t drink any alcohol, especially if your doctor has given you antibiotics.
• At least for two to three weeks after the surgery, don’t smoke.
• A healthy diet, which is high in minerals and vitamins and low in fats, helps the hair implants get oxygenated and nourished blood.
