Asked By:johnyzazai

sorry for having no photo, so I had hair transplant like 3 years ago but I am so disappointed with the result. it doesn't grow at all. Some transplanted hairs are about 3-4 inches but 80% just halt and about 1 and 1/2 inches and very thin as well. so advise me if I use medicine or just wait some 2 or 3 more years for hair to get matured. i have not seen or heard about such problems with hair transplant as i search a lot for the causes but didn't find any. please advise me.
