It is very difficult to correct a bad hair line after you had your surgery.  The only way may be to reshape your hairline LOWER than the existing hair line.

It may take six to twelve months to appreciate the results of a hair transplant surgery.  If you are concerned it is best to contact your doctor and ask for the exact count of grafts you received.

It is never wise to drink alcohol and smoke weed to get high in general so it would apply if you had a hair transplant as well.There aren't any medical studies to show what impact drugs and alcohol would have on hair transplant results.
