5 1/2 week post FUE and the sides of donor area are clearly thinner, will this improve?

Asked By:PietKlaassen in Amsterdam, MO

These pictures show the sides of my donor area 5,5 weeks post FUE. My specialist sais it isn't shock loss and sais it's hardly visible and not noticible by strangers, but I disagree. The middle is very dense again, but the sides of the donor area are clearly thinner in my opinion. Can you tell from the pictures if this is normal for a donor area 5,5 weeks post FUE and if it is likely to improve over the next 2 months? If yes/no, why should I expect it to improve/not improve? Thanks in advance
