Hair growth direction inconsistency following FUE and one side growing stuck out from my skin. (Photo)

Asked By:awesome beard in Auburn, AL

I've had a FUE beard transplant about 3 months ago and have had really good growth. On one side of my face the hair is growing in a very good direction, downwards and close to the skin. On the other side of my face however, and I think this is based on the fact a different medical professional was working on each side separately, the hair grows outwards and backwards towards my ear. Do you think both sides will eventually grow in the preferred downward direction?

Answer: If the doctor made the incision in the wrong angle, your hairs will grow in the wrong angle.
