Balding men and women with advanced hair loss are often sold short due to the overwhelmingly large bald area to cover with a finite donor hair supply. Hair restoration surgeons are careful only to harvest follicles within a certain area of the sides and back of the head known as the “safe” zone. These are the areas considered to be at low risk to be impacted by DHT, thus, “permanent”.

But what if hair transplant patients were willing to take the risk to get more hair and ask their surgeons to harvest follicles outside the universal safe zone? Wouldn’t that allow patients with advanced balding a chance at thicker and fuller hair? What are the risks of losing some of this hair as male pattern baldness progresses? Does safe donor hair vary for each patient?

Recently, forum member “hairshare” started a topic on our hair loss forum to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using hair from unsafe areas. You are encouraged to join in the discussion and offer your input on this important topic.

Days or even weeks away from undergoing hair restoration surgery, patients often experience anxiety and doubt as to whether or not they’re making the right decision.  After all, surgical hair replacement is no walk in the park.

It’s normal to have doubts and still go through with a hair transplant.  But it’s also important to be comfortable with the plan of action you and your hair restoration physician decided on to help you meet your goals.

Forum member “Raphael84” recently expressed some anxiety and reservations he had about proceeding with hair replacement surgery now that he is only a few weeks ago.  To see how members are responding and offer your own experience and input, visit “Second Thoughts”.

This hair loss question was answered by Dr. Glenn Charles of Florida who is a member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians.  His professional answer is below.

In the past I have been told that a hair density of 50 grafts per cm2 should not compromise graft survival.  However, I was wondering if transplanting hair at 55 grafts per cm2 or 65 grafts per cm2 would compromise vascularity or hair growth yield?  Are any grafts compromised at all leading up until natural true density?

Dr. CharlesThe answer really depends on what hair transplant clinic/doctor you go to. Some hair restoration physicians have the capabilities of placing higher numbers of grafts in smaller spaces and still obtaining a high yield percentage. There have been a few recent studies showing very high success in the range of 90-100 FU/cm2.

Here is an example of a common dilemma/question. Would you rather have 60 FU/cm2 and get 50 follicular units grow or have 45 FU’s/cm and get 43 follicular units to grow. Most would choose the latter based on the percentages of successful hair growth yield. The bottom line is that there are countless variables that go into the equation, and it will always be a hard decision.

Dr. Glenn Charles, D.O.
