I am 23 and recently got a FUE Transplant of 1500 grafts. After looking online, I feel that my transplant wasn't dense enough. I fear that my final output won't be dense enough. What would be your opinion? (Pictures 2 days post op)
Answer: Let it grow in a little I would let the grafts grow in and see if you are satisfied at that point. Then you can always add more density if needed. Things like angles of a hair and layering once the hair gets longer contribute to the overall look. The shape of the hairline and irregularity look nice. Sometimes just the movement of the hairline can achieve aesthetic goals you may be happy without having to have it densely packed.

Answer: It is best to wait 6-8 months before determining if your hair transplant was dense enough. It is best to wait 6-8 months before determining if your hair transplant was dense enough. If it is not dense enough, you can opt for a second procedure to increase the density.

Answer: FUE results It is too early to see the results and the density of your hair now. You will start to see the results as of the 3rd month and best results on your 12th month.

Answer: Adequate density It is very early to pass any judgements on density yet. Your growth will continue up to a year from grafting. Until this point has been reached a final result will not be entirely apparent.A good rule of thumb is that 2000 grafts will give reasonable density to an area slightly smaller than a CD. Depending upon the hair thickness itself the effect may seem more or less dense from one patient to the next.As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS) with experience in hair restoration.

Answer: Density Usually when lowering the hairline and transplanting hair in areas with no hair, it usually takes more than one procedure to gain the density that you may look for. It will take 6-8 months before you know about how much density you will have. I wish you the best.
