I am 8 months post 4500 FUT graft procedure. Hairline restored and frontal region thickened up over last month or two. Still weak in crown, but noticed thickening. I'm assuming at this point the crown will still be a little weak after 12 months and I would like to beef up frontal region slightly more. What I want to do is put probably 300- 500 grafts in front and probably another 800 in crown. I also want to put grafts into FUT scar so I can shave short around sides.How soon can I do this?

Answer: Right Time for Second FUT or FUE Procedure Generally I advise my patients to wait one year before getting a second procedure. It takes 9-12 months to see full hair growth after hair transplant surgery. Depending on your scarring, donor density you have left, and how much grafts you need, you could be a candidate for another FUT or possibly an FUE if you don't need as many grafts. If you are satisfied with your results you may be ready for a second procedure in 4 months, otherwise make sure to find a hair transplant surgeon who is qualified, experienced and who specializes in hair transplant surgeries and has experience in FUT & FUE, who is not biased as it may not be necessary to perform another FUT. Also, a surgeon whos familiar with scar repair as you could be a candidate for scalp micropigmentation to help reduce the appearance of the scar from your initial procedure.

Answer: Second Hair Transplant It is certainly common for patients to have multiple hair transplants over the course of their lifetime. Ultimately your candidacy for another procedure depends on the amount of available donor hair. If your donor area is depleted from the first procedure, than you cannot harvest any more scalp hair. I recommend following up with a hair transplant surgeon for a proper scalp exam.
