9 months after hair transplant and my hairline is growing in patches. Is this normal? (photos)

While it may take 6 to 12 months to see results, bumps and patches are not normal to see 9 months after a hair transplant surgery.  Especially the bumps.  Please follow up with your hair transplant surgeon.A good hair transplant surgery should not be noticeable. 

I'd get a second opinion (in person).  Do you keloid?  Pustule or cyst like lesions are unexpected after a hair transplantation.

At nine months you should see about 80 to 90% of your growth.  The first question to answer is what was the cause of your hair loss?  Were you born with a high hairline or did your hair fall out over time.  If you hair fell out over time, this is not a common location for hair loss due to female pattern hair loss.  Something else might be going on and if something else is going on, the first thing to know is what this something is.  Many types of scarring alopecia may respond to medication, but not hair transplants.  In fact, it is hard to get hair to grow in a scarring alopecia.  Thus, we really don't want to transplant patients who have scarring alopecia unless the condition is burned out.  Other things can cause hair loss on the hairline in women, especially traction alopecia from pulling your hair back or braiding your hair.  Next, I do not like the way your skin looks with the bumps.  I would have this evaluated.  So, find out what is causing your hair loss.  You might need a scalp biopsy.  Once you know, you can consider a treatment plan that is suitable.  Your growth should be nearly complete by now so you need to have this looked at.  You might consider seeing a dermatologist.
