Hello. I am currently creeping up on 7 months post op frontal hair transplant. I recently posted about a month ago and didn't get much on feedback. There's a decent amount of hair grown in, I'm wondering if there's anymore under the surface or/ and if what's there now will thicken up being that it's pretty thin at this point.
