I am just wondering here how long it usually takes to see the full results in the crown? I have heard that for some reason the crown usually takes signifigantly longer to see growth than the hairline. I am now at about 8 and a half months post op and thought I'd be farther along than I am. I had a ton of grafts placed in the crown, so my mental picture of what it should look like is much more different than it is. I have 3 and a half months left til my 1 year mark. Is this enough time for it to all come in? It's been pretty slow going here. So I'm wondering if only 3 and a half months is enough time to see allot more growth. Let me know what you think guys, I'm all ears.

I recall that at a year they were really only just growing pretty well, but still kind of thin wispy like but starting to cover pretty good, Its two years now and the hair is now same as the others. The crown takes a long time.

Yes, I agree with John Se. Though I have never had my own crown transplanted, I am constantly looking at others' crown progress. It is pretty common for the crown to lag a full 4 or 5 months and maybe more behind the hairline. Possibly more if it is not the first procedure. It may take as long as 16 to 18 months post-op for the crown to become mature.
