Regular Member js2004 Posted April 27, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted April 27, 2011 I just hit the 6 month mark, I had 520 fue into the hairline. Is there more new hair to grow or just thickening of what has already grown? I have had decent growth but still thinner than i would like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member TakingThePlunge Posted April 28, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted April 28, 2011 js2004, As Spex has already stated, you have lots more growth and maturation to look forward to.

Senior Member gillenator Posted April 29, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted April 29, 2011 IMHO, you are right at the period post-op where most of the transplanted hair is coming through. You still have some to come, but it is right now say through the next two months that most patients will notice new growth. The rest is caliber maturation up until the 12-18 month mark post-op. That's been my observation for the average patient with average hair characterisitcs. Remember, hair caliber is the single most critical factor considered in achieving the "illusion of coverage". It is more important than density! Gillenator Independent Patient Advocate I am not a physician and not employed by any doctor/clinic.

It is always possible that some of the new light colored finer hair growth is some of the exisitng natural hair that was there before surgery and may have been shocked out. It may be coming back with the transplanted hair. Gillenator Independent Patient Advocate I am not a physician and not employed by any doctor/clinic.
