How many grafts are expected to have grown 6 months after a hair transplant?

surgeriesandetc
My hair transplant 6 months later looks to be about 50% density in the best areas with 30-40 grafts per cm growing and only about 10% in some very sparse areas towards the middle of my head, with a small 0.5-0.5cm area with no hairs at all... The original density was 2177 grafts in a 30sq.cm area with 470 1 hair grafts, 1495 2 hair grafts and 212 3 hair grafts, which should have been a cosmetically thick 70 grafts per cm. Should I have had much better by now?
