The number of grafts required for a hair transplant can vary greatly depending on individual factors such as the extent of hair loss, the size of the treatment area, the density of the hair, and the desired outcome.  5000 grafts may be considered a high number, but it is not necessarily too much if it is required to achieve the desired result.

Consult with a qualified and experienced hair transplant surgeon who can assess your specific situation and recommend the appropriate number of grafts needed to achieve your goals. They will consider factors such as your hair characteristics, donor hair availability, and the overall aesthetic you are aiming for. The number of grafts required should be determined on a case-by-case basis through a consultation with a medical professional.
