There is a still a lot of mis-understanding when it comes to hair transplantation and in particular hair line design and how many grafts are needed.
For some it is just Y=MC2 and a simple equation is all you need! This is okay for putting eggs in a tray that are all the same shape and size and just a matter of pure math.
For a hair transplant however, it is not so simple in terms of dividing an area by a static density to get the total needed.
There are intricate details and protocols to keep to and far more than graft totals/area to get the amount placed as this video will graphically show. Like all things, there are levels in life and this is true in hair transplantation, so if your clinic doesn't understand these basics then don't expect a good outcome and be cautious of sales tactics to the contrary.
In this particular case, you can see that in roughly the first 3mm of hairline alone, requires 446 grafts.
