FUE Donor Area Looks patchy after 1 month post-op, 3500 grafts (photos)

Asked By:A3333 in New York, NY

Hi Doctors, I underwent FUE operation (3500 grafts) 1 month ago in Turkey. I notice the donor area right behind my right ear which looks especially patchy. While on the left and back side, hairs grew back and looks perfectly normal, few hair grew back on the right side even after 4 weeks! Was that area so over-harvested that no hair will ever grow back? I am really worried about it. Is it too early to say anything? Is there anything I can do to sort it out? Please advise. Thank you very much.
