Is it normal to have receding hair behaving the FUE 6 month post procedure?

XJN86
I had FUE in February 2023 with 1700 grafts. My hairline has been growing nicely but behind the right side it seems less dense and it looks patchy. I attended a 6 month F/Up today and asked if that was normal. The fue advisor said that my hair line was receding but I’m sure all that area was transplanted (see pictures). Is this normal? I’m taking Finasteride 1mg every day. I’ve been told I might need a PRP and I have also been advised to add minoxidil. Will this improve? Thank you!
