Question

Hello doctors I’m overall happy with my results so far , but sometimes my hair looks thin and sometimes not , in regards to the photos that I uploaded the on 8 mark will I expect more thickness or it’s too bad for me. Thank you

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

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

Karl Hekimian, MD · Answer

Many things, such as lighting and your hair being wet can effect how thick your hair looks.  Now that you're eight months postop, this would be a good time to visit your surgeon, review preop photos, discuss results and talk about what, if anything, you want to do next.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

At 8 months, you have fully 80% of the growth that you can expect, possibly more.  I would not expect much more new growth, just more length from the new hair
