7 months post FUE HT. Are my nerves damaged permanently?

Permanent nerve damage is uncommon after FUE transplant. It can take up to a year for nerves to heal and settle down. I would give it this time. If you're having chronic or worsening pain then you could consider some other medications or intervention but that would be very uncommon. 

It is unlikely that your nerves are permanently damaged. If you are having any chronic pain or lack of sensation, follow up with your surgeon.

Thank you for posting this question. With an FUE procedure it's actually quite uncommon for permanent numbness of the scalp. However, with large extractions, like a 3,000 graft case, sometimes this can occur. Nerve regrowth can take a long time, so I would give it a full 12 months before taking further action such as visiting a neurologist. I'm thinking that it will be fully resolved by then.Ken Anderson, MD, FISHRS, ABHRSBoard Certified Hair Restoration Surgeon

Permanent nerve damage is very unlikely after FUE hair restoration. I would suggest just waiting until a year, likely the problem will resolve itself,Dr. Robert Jones

It can take up to a year (in cases longer) for sensation to return to normal after a hair transplant.  If things are better than they were a few months ago you will likely continue to improve

Th,e persistence of nerve pain after any hair transplant is rare. If the pain is around your entire head, then a neurologist is a reasonable consultant to get
