Is a 2nd shed at 8 months post-op hair-transplant normal?

Question

It seems like I’m experiencing a second shed at around the 8 month mark. Is something like this normal? The transplanted hair is still very wiry. I’m assuming it will get better in the next few months, but assumed the hair would be healthier and fuller by now.

The shedding at 8 months can happen rarely for the existing hairs. The hair will grow back. You need to contact your doctor so he can analyze that and recommend you a treatment.
For the transplanted hair will get thicker after 8 months post-op. the final result shows between 12-14 months.
