gdog Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Just a quick question. Once the transplanted hair does begin to grow, does it grow at the same rate as the non-transplanted hair or does that take longer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 When the grafts first start to grow they are much like that of a baby's, fine and light in color. Shortly thereafter they will transform into typical terminal hair (normal quality) and grow at the same rate as before.

Guest Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 I agree with Dr. Limmer in that once the transplanted hairs start to grow (3-5 months) the rate will be the same as the original hairs. Keep in mind that often in the first growth cycle of a transplanted follicile the hair will be more stiff and brittle. However, over time and repeated growth cycles the hairs usually return to normal texture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
