What’s the Highest Density Possible from a Hair Transplant?
Doctor,
Quick question: what is the most density one can achieve after a hair transplant? I’m a little more than 6.5 months after my first hair transplant (temple and front), and wondering if I’ll
ever be able to slick my hair back like I used to. I’m seeing growth, but the density surely isn’t near what I’ll need in order to reach my goal (at least right now it isn’t).
The issue is fullness, not density. At 6 months, I would not expect much fullness, but each successive month I would expect to see more and more. At 8 months you should see about 80% of what will eventually be there. The fullness may not directly relate to the density, as there are many variables (hair shaft thickness, hair character, hair and skin color, degree of baldness), so any absolute number without taking these other attributes into consideration does not mean much.
