7 months after FUE transplant. But still not getting density. Advice? (photos)

Question

I have had a hair transplant on 24 may 2017 in frontal hair line with 2600 grafts, but i am not happy with the density. Will there be new growth of hair or it is the final hair density?

Anil R. Shah, MD · Answer

Hello,Density is one of the most critical factors after hair transplantation.  Early on you may not be able to fully determine your density.  Density depends on various factors including the number of hairs  per cm squared, the thickness and vibrancy of hair, direction and design of hair.  Techniques for density vary from surgeon to surgeon.  In my office, we utilize a specialized technique that allows for optimizing density and found it to be helpful.  
Best,
Dr. Anil Shah

If you didn't get enough grafts you wont get the density.  Remember that hair transplant do not replace original density.

Sean Behnam, MD · Answer

It's still very possible you'll see an increase in density over the next few months. However keep in mind it's impossible for your hair to be restored to the full density it had naturally- the goal is usually to make it look fully dense, not necessarily feel fully dense.

At 7 months you are getting a good glimpse of the final result,but you will still have 5 more months of growth. If you are unsure about any part of your procedure, it is always best to inform the doctor that performed the procedure to get their feedback as well.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

No one ever gets back their normal density. The question
that should be answered is did you meet the expectations that you are your
doctor set at the time of the surgery. Go back and meet with your surgeon if
you are unhappy
