You should wait at least 10 months before your next procedure. You should speak with your surgeon and have him/her examine your donor area.

It takes 4-6 months for hair your hair transplanted to grow. At 8 months, 80% of the transplanted hairs should grow. By the 12 month mark, you should achieved full growth.

Over harvesting from FUE can be an issue and cause the patchy appearance.  It may also be due to shock hair loss.

It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen.  Your photos look like a typical surgery.  Perhaps it should have less scabbing at this point.

It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative issue as each doctor has their unique regimen.  Normal scalp hair density is about 200 hairs in a square centimeter so you can get a baseline of what to expect.
