Why Didn't Hair Transplant Work?

I understand your frustration. While most patients experience 90-plus % rate of growth, there is the occasional case where the percentage of growth is quite low. There are several reasons why this may occur- poor handling of the grafts, drying out of the grafts- but sometimes the procedure was performed to the highest standards yet regrowth is low. The Avodart should, if anything, help maintain your existing hair.

If you had a failed hair transplant it may have been a technical error or just bad luck.  There are always risks associated with surgery.  Failure to grow may be one of them.  However, this is very rare.  It is always a good idea to check back with your doctor for a recheck.

While the result of not having any follicles take is atypical, it is possible.  Unfortunately, there is no real way to predict this.  Please be sure to keep in close contact with your surgeon regarding your concerns.

This is highly atypical. What type of procedure did you have? A patient can expect new hair growth in 14 to 16 weeks, which usually maxes out at a year. New hair will continue to mature and thicken for up to a year-and-a-half after the FUE surgery. You should consult your doctor about the lack of growth.

They should have grown. In 35 years of hair transplants I have never seen them not grow in that amount of time. Get a second opinion.
