FUE hair transplant - 2 months post-op. Will my hair grow?

Question

I had FUE (1100 grafts) on my temples and I'm now 2 months post op. One side is growing new hairs but my other side only half of it has grown and I'm thinking why is hair pushing through everywhere else except that part. Will it eventually come through?

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

Sara Salas, MD · Answer

It is very early to know the answer to your question as of yet. However it is good to see early growth. Just realize that you may have growth of different rates for a full year. Give it more time and try not to stress over it. Take care.

Hello, Thanks for your question!You should have been known that some of the hair start growing back faster than others and not equally. The ones who grow slower they will catch up, it is just matter of time.

Cory Torgerson, MD, PhD, FRCSC - Account Suspended · Answer

You are still in the very early stages of growth. The transplanted hairs will not all grow at the same time and it is typical for one side to have stronger growth then the other. You will see the majority of growth from 6-9 months and it will take a full year to see all the hairs grow.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

Sometimes the growth is unequal but in time the slower side would catch up over the next few months
