Asked By:S.Y123 in London, GB

Is the donor area recovering well or is my donor area taking time to heal? I have on the left side of my head a patchy area due to the HT. will my hair grow on this side? I had 4000+ grafts done. And I believe it may have been over harvested and if this is the case will my hair be permantely patchy like this? I've attached photos to see what everyone's opinion is. I've watched and read other peoples HT stories and I feel like they've had a lot more success in 5 months than I have.
