When can I have my third hair transplant? (photos)

Armando121212
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?
