What to do now? Depressed 8 months after hair transplant.

You should have a frank discussion with the surgeon who did your procedure, and be persistent about it, especially about the side you want fixed.

Most individuals will achieve full benefit 10-12 months after the procedure if performed correctly. Unfortunately, poor results are becoming more commonplace after the introduction of some surgical devices for performing FUE. See your doctor at 10-12 months to assess growth and look at your before and after pictures at that point. Remember, an FUE device does not make a hair transplant surgeon. A gifted full time hair transplant surgeon will help you make the best choices to combat your hair loss.
