Answer: It is best to contact your doctor about post issues. Some patients may experience numbness on their scalp for a few months.

You should have begun to see results by 6 months. THe full results of the hair transplant would be seen by 1 year so hopefully your hair grows by then.
It is best to contact your doctor about post operative care and instructions since each doctor has a different regimen. It's been over a month. If your scalp itches, you can scratch it.
