1100 FUE grafts 7 months post aren't growing well

Question

I had the FUE procedure in the front area 7 Months ago but there is little growth. Also, some of the growth that I'm experiencing pops up but then stops growing and just sits there until it falls out. Will these grow back or did these grafts not take? I'm concerned about my results. Thank you.

It can take 6 to 12 months after surgery to see results.  If you are concerned it is best to contact your doctor

At this point you should have a noticeable amount of growth but you still have 4-5 months to achieve the full result.If you are concerned I would recommend following up with your surgeon.

Sara Wasserbauer, MD · Answer

Check in with your doctor.  The majority of growth happens 6-12 months post transplant, and little retained hairs can cause an inflammatory response which delays growth and healing.  The little hairs should be removed and if there is no growth by 9 months - something else might be going on.
Good luck!

If after another month you still don#t see the results you expect (I would expect 80% of the results at 8 months) then go back to see your doctor and get his opinion on your situaiton
