Hi everyone!
In early 2020, I had my first FUE HT (1500 grafts) by a no name surgeon and while the hair grew, I was left with an unnatural hairline, lots of multi-grafts in the hairline, and poor graft placement. A year later in March 2021, I went to get my hairline corrected by Dr. Panine. The goal of the procedure was to soften the hairline with singles in a zig zag pattern and also add some density in the front. I received 1338 singles and 287 doubles. The team was very professional during the surgery and my healing process went much better than the first time.
I wanted to get everyone's thoughts on the progress at nearly 6 months...one thing I noticed was the right side has only singles in the front of the hairline (as expected), but I've noticed quite a few multi-grafts coming in on my left side in the hairline, including one multi-graft/cluster of grafts at the very front with five hairs that stand out when styling my hair (can't tell if this is a five-hair graft or several doubles stuck together). Since they pulled 1338 singles, I was surprised to see a good amount of multi-grafts near the front and found it odd they only appear on the left side (can't find any on the right side).
Is this normal? I am hoping some of the professionals here can tell me if it's normal to mix in that many multi-grafts on one side and what I can do...if anything...about the one pesky multi-graft.
I'm including some photos below.

Photo 3 and 4: The left side (singles and multi-grafts, drew an arrow towards that one pesky graft that sticks out...this one has also been surrounded by some redness since the operation)
Thank you!
