i'm 3 and 1/2 months post op and i have started
to get a small amount of growth,however it appears
to be asymetrical,meaning it is growing on one
side more than the other,hopefully the other
side will grow to catch up soon,if anyone reading
this had a similar experience please chime in.
as far as the ht hairs shedding everyone is
different,mine shed at about 6 weeks with a few
hairs that never fell out and just kept growing
but that was only a few.the new ht hairs started
growing on one side at about the 3 month mark and
it is pissing me off that growth has started only
one side .the new growth is kinda spaced apart
more than i would like,but some hairs are thick
and dark,some are light and blond not mature in
lengh yet,so far at 3 and half months i haven't
gotten my hopes up or given up,i know it is still
too soon to judge so i'm being patient.

I also had differing areas sprouting at random times, I noticed and remember very well that the hair on the top of my head came in 1st, and wouldnt you know it the frontal growth was last, I had a lot of shedding at 6-8 weeks but was clearly a happier camper at appx 4-5 months, the newly sprouted hair generated a smile that had been absent since surgery day....hang in there !! BTW I truley looked "worse" than "pre-surgery" at the 6-8 week point...it was disapointing definately, however my hats/caps are now collecting dust.

Figsy,

It is so soon to tell. Give yourself a couple of more months and you will really be happy. I bet many of your grafts have not even sprouted out yet. My previous hair transplant took nearly 8 to 9 months for me to notice. My hair on top came in real fine and thin. It was only noticable as it thicken in density over time. Well that was almost 9 months. I was totally dumbfounded. But as you will see, the more procedures, the longer the wait. But If you see anything at the 3.5 mark, smile, smile and smile.

Peace

Hi.

I am three months and 1 week post op and to be honest I have not noticed any growth yet. I am also losing hair adjacent where the HT were implanted. I am getting anxious as I want the new hairline to come through. How dense does the hair become? Please help. Am I being impatient?

nw and ron,

thanks for the encouragement.sometimes we need
a little hand holding thru this so i thank you
both for that.its my 1st ht,so seeing hair growing
on one side and not the other made my imagination
run amok,i'm thinking to myself wy would this be,
something must be wrong,so it helps to hear its
normal.ron you are right,new hairs seem to be
popping out,but still the very front single
grafts have not started yet,and they are the
camoughflage hairs and very important to blend
it all together.i hope they come soon.thanks again
