How Much Area Does a 2000 Graft Hair Transplant Cover?

Coverage of 2000 Grafts at My Hair UK

A 2000 graft Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) transplant at My Hair UK provides significant restoration for individuals experiencing mild to moderate hair loss. Each graft contains 1 to 4 hair follicles, equating to approximately 4000 to 6000 individual hairs . The extent of coverage depends on factors such as hair density, scalp characteristics, and the natural thickness of the patient's hair.

At My Hair UK, the cost for a 2000 graft hair transplant is £3,699   This price includes consultation, the procedure, and aftercare, ensuring comprehensive support for optimal results, see my hair UK website . The placement of grafts is highly strategic, considering factors such as natural hair direction, density requirements, and facial structure to achieve a natural appearance. Research shows that FUE transplants, when performed with precise techniques, achieve graft survival rates exceeding 90% (source) .

Scalp area covered by 2000 grafts

The area covered by 2000 grafts depends on the Norwood Scale classification of hair loss. Patients at Norwood Stage 3 , with frontal hairline recession, often find 2000 grafts sufficient for full restoration of the temples and hairline. Those at Norwood Stage 4 , where thinning extends to the mid-scalp, may achieve partial coverage but not full density across both areas.

In practical terms:

• If placed at high density (50 grafts per cm²) , 2000 grafts can cover around 40 cm² (eg, a dense frontal hairline).
• If placed at moderate density (35-40 grafts per cm²) , coverage extends to 60-100 cm² (eg, the entire frontal region or a large portion of the mid-scalp).
• If spread more thinly (25 grafts per cm²) , it can cover up to 120 cm² , although density will be lower.

Patients with thicker, coarser hair achieve greater visual density than those with fine or straight hair. Wavy or curly hair also provides superior coverage due to the way it reflects light and creates a fuller appearance.

Achieving the Best Results

While 2000 grafts can restore a natural-looking hairline and improve density in key areas, those with more advanced hair loss may need further sessions. Combining a hair transplant with medical treatments such as finasteride or PRP therapy can help stabilize hair loss and enhance long-term outcomes.

A consultation helps determine the best approach based on your degree of hair loss, donor hair availability, and long-term goals .
