Hello doctor I am a 31 old male. I did my first hair transplant on February 1st 2016 with 3300 graft in Malaysia. I did my second hair transplant for 5000 grafts on September 3rd 2016 in Turkey. 2 weeks after it, my forehead was swollen so much that my mom put onion with salt to decrease this swollen part. My mom was so worried and scared for me and told me to never do a hair transplant again. I want to do my last one but now only 2500 grafts just on one side. When is the best time to do it?

Answer: When is it safe to have my third hair transplant? I would wait at least one year to have the third transplant in the same area. I think you should be cautious though. You are only 31. You have perhaps 40 to 60 more years of potentially progressive hair loss. After 8300 grafts, you should have no donor area remaining. However, doctors in Turkey often claim to perform twice the amount of work they actually performed and the work is usually done entirely by unlicensed nurses in Turkey. Thus, you may have more donor area remaining. The location of your hairline is low especially in the frontal-temple junction. This is not artistic at all and may present problems for you later in life. Now, it just looks unnatural for a caucasian. If I were you, I would give your transplant more time to mature. You have already been very aggressive with the work you have allowed.
