What percentage of further hair growth can one expect after the 6-month mark? (Photos)

Question

Dear experts, Assuming that the hair has been constantly cut short since around the 2 month mark, and between the 4-6 month mark I've seen some density increase (see attached before and after), how much more further population hair density could be possible after 6 months?

Amir Yazdan, MD · Answer

Generally speaking, you're around the halfway mark (50%) and will continue to see further results. You can expect to see full results once you've reached your 1 year post-op. For optimal results - follow your doctors medical management recommendations. The link below references some of my hair maintenance recommendations for maximum density.

It may take six to twelve months to appreciate the results of a hair transplant surgery.  If you are concerned it is best to contact your doctor.  Some may not see any results at 6 months.

Emrah Cinik, MD · Answer

6 months post operation gives you the 40-50% of your total result. You need to wait for a year in order to see the complete look

Baubac Hayatdavoudi, MD · Answer

At 6 months you will be at only about 50% growth, at 12 months you will be at roughly 90% growth. Remain patient and continue to follow your doctors post op care instructions.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

My standard answer is that 80% of the hair will grow to styling length in 8 months and the rest in a year
