Answer: It can take 6 to 12 months after surgery to see results. If you are concerned it is best to contact your doctor
We recommend our patients to start massage after 1 week on the transplanted area . Only with fingertips. Scratching is not allowed. Massage will not damage the transplanted grafts. The hair which are falling out are the "old" ones. So do not worry.
Hello, Thank you for your question. After FUE hair transplant, I normally suggest my patients to wait with haircut at least for 1 month. About the hairstyle, you can let your hair keep growing. Once the hair grown back, they will be as natural as your hair.
You really will not know until about 8 months out from the day of surgery. That number of grafts may be too many if the donor density was under average, see below
