When will I see final results for FUE hair transplant? 11 months p/o. New hairs are still thin, fake looking, delicate. (photos)

Question

I had FUE 11 months ago (3000 grafts) and as you will see from the pictures the new hairs are very thin compared to my normal hair. They seem very spaced out with gaps and you can see close up and in the light my head through my hair st at the front. The hairs are very fragile and fake looking, they sort of Spring out at the top. Will they blend in with my natural hair and be thicker and spread out more. It seems like each graft when I look closely produces 1 hair.

If you are not pleased with the results of your surgery, it is best to follow up with your doctor for a recheck.

infinate 3000,

I am sorry to say that I do not believe that it will likely get much better. At 11 months, it is probably mostly grown out. This result can be enhance very easily, but you need to do a lot of research.

Sincerely,

11 months means you probably won't be seeing the kind of change you would like, if there even is a noticeable change over the last few months of growth. If you're unhappy with what your transplant looks like, talk to your doctor about it and see if there's anything they recommend or if another FUE is what would help achieve your desired look.

İt is impossible to implant 3000 grfats just on frontal hair line ..This actually takes 10-13 months for hair to become full mature , as thick and bright  as native hair. So if you are not satisfied with result , need a revision to fill the gaps...

I believe at 11 months, what you are seeing is what you have for a final result with possibly some more growth by about 5% in the next month or so
