To achieve the desired result in hair transplantation, sufficient density must be obtained. Therefore, a high number of grafts will be required for moderate and advanced baldness. For example, in Norwood 5-6 type hair loss, sufficient density can be achieved with 5000 grafts or more. However, extracting 5000 grafts from the donor area may not be possible for everyone. Because the donor area must be quite strong to collect this number of grafts.

Therefore, before making a decision about a hair transplant, the following questions must be answered clearly.

  1. How many grafts are needed? This depends on the size of the bald area in square centimeters. For example, if 30 grafts per square centimeter are planned for 5000 grafts, hair transplantation can be performed on an average area of 166 cm².
  2. Is the donor area sufficient? Everyone’s donor capacity is different. Having a high-quality and sufficiently dense donor area is very important. For individuals with a weak donor area, obtaining a high number of grafts, such as 5000, may not be possible. Otherwise, undesirable aesthetic issues may arise in the donor area later on. If too many grafts are extracted from the donor area, significant scar tissue may form. Therefore, not everyone may be a suitable candidate for a 5000-graft hair transplant.

The answers to these questions can only be determined after proper planning and an examination by an experienced hair surgeon. Additionally, if a high number of grafts are required for the hair transplant, an experienced hair surgeon and qualified technicians are essential for a successful outcome. Therefore, if you need a large number of grafts, we recommend not relying on unrealistic advertisements such as ‘we transplant unlimited hair follicles.

How Long Does a 5000 Graft Hair Transplant Take?

Completing a hair transplant with such a high number of grafts may take more than 10 hours. Therefore, performing a 5000-graft hair transplant in a single session is definitely not advisable. As the duration increases, the risk of potential complications such as necrosis and infection also rises. Additionally, prolonged procedures increase the risks associated with anesthesia and the rate of graft loss.

Therefore, it would be more appropriate to perform this hair transplant in two separate sessions of 2500 grafts each. At AHD Clinic, we perform 2000-2500 grafts in a single session. If the number of grafts increases, we carry out the procedure over two separate days.

How Much Does 5000 Grafts Hair Transplant Cost in Turkey?

The most important factor determining the cost of a hair transplant is the number of grafts. As the number of grafts increases, the price will also rise. Additionally, the factors listed below also affect the cost.

  • Doctor’s brand value: Qualified hair surgeons charge higher fees for hair transplants.
  • Applied technique: Hair transplants performed using the DHI method are relatively more expensive. However, the success rate of the procedure is also higher.
  • Donor area selection: If beard or chest hair is used as the donor area, the cost may increase. Additionally, if a high number of grafts are required, the FUE and FUT methods can be combined.
  • Location: Prices may vary depending on the country.
  • Number of sessions: Transplants completed in a single session will cost less.

In the United States, the price range for 5000 grafts is between $10,000 and $20,000. In Turkey, however, the prices for a 5000-graft hair transplant can vary between $2000 and $10,000. These prices may change depending on the criteria mentioned above. The lower prices in Turkey increase the demand for hair transplants. Especially if you need a high number of grafts, we recommend choosing qualified and well-known doctors in Turkey. This is because the surgeon’s skill directly affects the success rate of the hair transplant.

How many hair strands does 5000 grafts make?

This number varies depending on the average number of hairs per graft. For example, in a person with a hair/graft ratio of 2.3, 5000 grafts (5000 * 2.3 =) would correspond to 11,500 hair strands. So, 5000 grafts can result in an average of 10,000 to 15,000 hair follicles.

What Does a 5000 Graft Hair Transplant Look Like?

In Norwood 4-5 hair loss, full coverage can be achieved in the bald area. However, for larger balding areas like Norwood 6-7, a higher number of grafts will be needed for complete coverage. Therefore, in Norwood 7 hair loss, the primary approach should be a hair transplant planned from the front toward the back, meaning full coverage on the crown may not be possible.

Ultimately, individuals with a sufficient and strong donor area can achieve good results with 5000 grafts.
