With 10k graft you can get good isllusion of head full of hair.
Most man have at max 8k grafts as a donor from the occipital area so the back looks still kinda NOT 'overharvested'.

Btw, to all, what if your occipital hair is thinning as well and Androgenetic Alopecia leads to nearly alopecia totalis (case of my dad and other man in my family)?
I wonder if current stem cell projects will help out here, in VERY aggressive cases.

10k grafts is 20-25k hairs so it's closer to 50%.
I only used that number because Tsuji specifically said in his answer that a 50k graft session would take 25 hours. I'd assume that's his example of NW7 -> NW1 and what he's quoting those prices on.

He's talking about 50k hairs not follicular units

Ah fair enough. I guess I just assumed 50k sounded about right because right now with huge transplants of 8-10k grafts you're still only achieving 30-50% natural density in most places, some even less.

50k hair on the top of your head is probably higher than your natural density, that would be so good

Yes and Youngjet Said that Tsuji will commercialize in 2020-2021 so he is a f*****g liar!!!
You don't know what the word liar means. All he did was tell us what he was told. How was he supposed to know Organ Tech would go bankrupt?

The article says:

"With the funding of clinical research, the research can be started within a year. The first target is androgenetic alopecia, whose mechanism is clear, and the period will be about one and a half years."

Once funded human studies can start within 1 year and then the treatment can go to market after 1 1/2 years. This means it should go to market approx 2 1/2 years after they get the necessary funding. If they got the necessary funding today it should hit the market in 2023.
