At 4 months post op hair transplant it’s too early to see results.  The best results are seen at 12-18 months post op

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

It may take 6 to 12 months to see the results of a hair transplant surgery.  If you are concerned it is best to discuss it with your doctor.

At 4 months time post FUE you are just going to see some sprouting.  Over the next several months after that you will see significant growth.  You need to give it more time. Full growth isn't until 12 months.

William Woessner, MD · Answer

Use Rogaine nightly and give it two more months to grow - by then you should see more growth coming through.

At 4 months post op it is too early to see results from the hair transplant procedure. Be patients as the results will not be fully noticable until 12 months.

Cory Torgerson, MD, PhD, FRCSC - Account Suspended · Answer

You are just starting to grow the transplanted hairs at this stage. You will see the majority of growth between 6-9 months and it takes a full year before you see full results.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

You are probably just staring to grow and what you see will continue sprouting new hairs and by the 8gh month you should see 80% of the growth to styling length
