5.5 Months Out from Hair Transplant Surgery and Dissatisfied with My Results

I’m 5.5 months out from [tag]hair transplant[/tag] surgery and not happy with my results so far.   On one side of my head, my hair seems to be growing much faster.   Is my hair transplant a failure?

Honestly, what you are experiencing sounds quite normal to me.   5.5 months is way too early to evaluate your final result.   Most patients only start experiencing [tag]hair growth[/tag] of the [tag]transplanted hair[/tag] between 3-5 months and it takes up to 1 year to mature. In addition, the average patient at 6 months  is only seeing about 60% of their final result. Hair will also grow at different rates and may patients experience uneven [tag]hair regrowth[/tag].

I know you are anxious to see the final  [tag]hair restoration[/tag]  result, but patience is extremely important.
