Answer: After transplant It typically takes 6 to 8 months before 50% or so of a transplant result can be seen. 7000 grafts? that seems awfully high as most of my scalp FUE procedures are around 2000 to 2400 grafts maximum, unless we are using body hairs in which case we can do more than 3000 grafts.

Answer: Grafts versus hairs You may be correct that for optimal improvement you do not have enough coverage to achieve the results you are seeking. Hair restoration is a slow process and takes months to appreciate full benefit of a transplant. Some things you may want to consider to support the growth is ACell, PRP, and even a newer product called AmnioFix. These therapies are injected directly into the scalp and bolster follicle recovery and health. The follicle is the structure within the scalp that actually grows the hair. Some follicles grow 1, while others can grow as many as 4. As the follicle declines it will grow smaller hairs for a shorter period of time (a process called miniaturization) and eventually stop. Augmenting your surgery may give you a more robust response. I encourage you to follow up with your provider as you heal and remain open to adding more coverage in the future if you want more coverage.
