African American male, 27 years old - FUE on hairline corners 6.5 months post-op - density? (Photos)

It can take 6 to 12 months after surgery to see results.  If you are concerned it is best to contact your doctor

I have extensive experience treating African American patients with my patented Dr.UPunch, which is specifically engineered to transplant the tightly curled hair of afro-textured hair. I typically advise my patients that they will notice signs of growth by three-and-a-half to four months following surgery, usually maxing out after 12 months. However for Up to 18 months after surgery there could continue some improvement in growth, hair thickness, hair shine, and hair texture resulting in a better blend with the surrounding natural hair.
I encourage you to consult with a physician for any further medical advice. I am always available for a free online consultation as well.View results from a similar patient using the link below.

At 5-8 months after the procedure all transplanted grafts should be growing with visible hair above the skin.  The grafted hairs are shorter and thinner than the surrounding hairs.  Grafts with multiple hair shafts aren't always growing multiple shafts at six months.  The immature hairs have less visible impact at six months than they will at a year.   

At 6 1/2 months it is too early to see much results in some cases, so I would not yet be concerned.  I assume you have discussed this with your surgeon?FUE on typical African American hair can be a more technically challenging procedure, so it is particularly important that you do your research.

It looks like you are already on your way to a nice result.You still have another 5-6 months of growth before you see the final result.Hang in there.

Your full density from your FUE will continue to develop up to about 1 year post surgery. However, if you know you want as much density as possible, I feel comfortable going back in surgically 6 months post op. 

It takes 8-12 months to get your final results- at 6 1/2 months it is too early to draw any conclusions about what your final density will be. 

I tell my patients that they can expect to see 80% of the growth in 8 months after the hair transplant so be patient
