Mustache Transplant on cleft lip (photo)

Question

I had one mustache transplant done 10 months ago but i had no hair growth in the middle of the lip but i had significant growth on the sides as you can see in the pictures , now like 2 weeks ago i had another transplant to try to conceal my scars , now my question is , Will this time work? What could it be that i have no hair growth? Thanks

If your surgery did not work last time, and you decided to have another surgery , isn't it too late to ask if it will work the 2nd time?  You would have to wait and see.

You have a raised scar that is evident and may impact the final appearance of the second mustache transplant. Now that you had the second transplant, wait it out for 8 months and your questions will be answered by the results you will see. I can not predict it at this point in time and certainly without directly examining you

Hair transplant works very well if done correctly. We take special care to "soften" the scar, make recipient sites correctly and careful graft selection and placement. If your transplant was performed well you should expect excellent results.
