Does Density Increase Between Month 8 and Month 10 Following a Hair Transplant?
Hi, I had last a FUT session of just under 3000 grafts at a reputable clinic last summer in Thailand. The last thing the doctor told me after my final check-up was “Don’t forget: it will take 10 months to look good!” On your site, you often mention waiting 8 months for final results. I’m now 7 months from the operation and have good results so far,but am hoping for more thickness. Is it true that more density can occur between the eighth and tenth month?
Thanks
Everybody is different! Sometimes all your transplanted hair can grow out in 3 to 4 months. Sometimes it can take over a year for 100% growth. I generally tell patients that in 8 months you will see about 80%+ of your hair growth to 2-3 inches in length.
You’ll hopefully see a little more thickness, but I don’t know what to expect in your case, as you’re not my patient and I haven’t seen you or your results. You said you have got some good results thus far, and only time will tell from here on. Otherwise, you can follow up with your doctor and ask for his/her assessment.
