Guest bro66 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 BETWEEN 3 - 6 MONTHS IS WHEN I WAS TOLD TO EXPECT TO SEE ANY GROWTH. I'M A LITTLE PAST MY 3RD MONTH AND I'M STARTING TO SEE A FEW DARK COARSE HAIRS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hairbank Posted March 24, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted March 24, 2006 Do some searching under the find feature on the site..........you'll find several threads on when to expect grow. What I have found after my research............this varies greatly from one individual to the next. Usually, top/front come in faster than the crown. Other than that, growth is sporadic and doesn't seem to occur evenly when it does come in. I'm approaching 6 weeks post-op and believe there are a few little ones here and there, but, very few. If you look at pics several post, normally you can start seeing some noticeable action between 3-5 months. At 10 weeks, you should be just a few weeks away from starting to see some results. Be patient........it'll come.

Regular Member Doc Patient Posted March 26, 2006 Regular Member Share Posted March 26, 2006 I had my second procedure just three days after yours (mine was 1-9-06). About two weeks ago I started seeing a few grafts poking up, but so small and fine that I wasn't really sure about them. Now they're looking more obviously like sprouting little hairs - small and fine. They get thicker with time. Are you using 5% minoxidil? This has been shown to speed up the process. I started using it on the grafted areas two weeks after my procedure and will use it for the first four months or so on the instructions of my doc.

Senior Member MrJobi Posted March 26, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted March 26, 2006 Hi I've had 2 procedures. It takes 4-6 before the "measurable results" will start. 3 months maybe you'll see growth..Give it a full 12 months though and then you'll see it all JOBI 1417 FUT - Dr. True 1476 FUT - Dr. True 2124 FUT - Dr. True 604 FUE - Dr. True My views are based on my personal experiences, research and objective observations. I am not a doctor. Total - 5621 FU's uncut! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
