Shouldn’t I See Significant Growth at 5 Months Post-Op?
I got a hair transplant myself almost 5 months ago- on October 10,2007. The hair on the front of my top scalp is still pretty thin,.I can’t tell if I lost more hair than before I had the transplant or if there is little growth from the transplants. AT 5 months, shouldn’t I be able to see significant growth- and if there isn;t should I ask my doctor at 11 months do consider doing it over again?- because they will probably say they did everything right despite the results being poor???
At just 5 months post-surgery, you can not tell how successful a hair transplant was. You shouldn’t be in such a rush to expect failure. Usually the growth just starts at 4-5 months, so I would expect that by the 6-8th month you should see 80+ percent of the hair grown.
