How long did it take for the graft to take and the hair to grow in? Here's my fear, if the loss is genetic and the hair follicles are dead, won't I lose it all over again?

Your question is to someone with medical competence, of course, there is not much sense to do something which will not succeed anyway. But only a doctor can say that.

Journey is over - one-year-closing post
Hey boys and girls,
One year after my FUE with Dr Civas is over and this will be my last post for now – unless second session is needed… Not now, the doctor said. 20 % more progress in density could come, he also said. To continue with Minoxidil was his advice, don’t intend to do it very regularly, as it creates me itchy scalp (seborrheic dermatitis-like). Otherwise will finish the one-year biotin pills, not more than that.
Some fresh pics – one is from a photo shoot at work, the others close-up home pics.
In summary, my FUE seems to have worked okay – can’t say overwhelmingly excited or total disaster. Besides the genetics, it seems important that one manages his expectations and is patient. Further advice would be not to go for the unusually cheap treatments (btw, 10 % discount was announced on doctor’s website, if posting results over the year, now the page does not exist anymore, staff changed there and at the end – no discount, anyway).
Regarding Dr CIvas – still on the opinion that he is very good and one of the best choices.
That’s all, I think.
Take care and good luck to all of you.
Best, Ned

hey Ned, thanks for your review. I have been following your progress for a while.I would say it was one of the reasons I decided to go with dr Civas. Now at 6 months I like the progress so far, as you said one has to manage own expectations. Wanted to ask if you see any major increase in density after 6 months. It seems majority of patients in my opinion reach their max density gains at the 6 months mark. I hope I am mistaken as i would love some more density. Thanks again.

Hi man,
happy you did the treatment! Were you satisfied with Dr Civas? I definitely do not regret my decision and continue encouraging people around to find courage to do it - it is life-changer in some way :)
Wait for 2-3 more months, maybe after the 8-9th month the hair recovers and takes almost final shape. Most probably there won't be a miracle happening, but still I'd suggest you be patient till the ninth or tenth month. And don't worry - everything will be fine!
Just had to renew my passport and ID and will post the pictures I did few days ago separately. You'll see, or at least I still say from time to time that 'my hair is not that dense', but there is no friend around who doesn't say that 'it looks great' compared to what was before! So, wonders do not - or rarely - happen in life, especially in the medicine, but good results are good results after all :)
Take care and head up!
Ned

Hi abouguendia - saw your question and thought I'd reply. I think everyone is different but dereklucan (here on RS) had a photo up somewhere which suggested the average densities at each month. I can't remember all of them but the suggestion was for a density of about 75% of final result by month eight.
October 26, 2019
Hey Ned, I hope the next couple of months it gets denser some how. As for Dr. Civas, I still think I did the right choice going with him. I’m still going through reviews for other doctors and I think I did the right choice. Do you think you could have gotten better results with someone else?
October 26, 2019
Might be, but also might be not. Not really attracted by the lower prices in Istanbul, and should I have to do it second time, if needed, I would go again with Civas. In no way did I regret it so far or thought that it might have been better if I did it with another doctor.
