I received a hair transplant in March of 2020 and I’m seeing no results

[Steele]

I received a FUE 1200 graph hair transplant on my crown in March of 2020 and it’s now September and it looks and feels like I’ve received zero results. This would be my second hair transplant and I made sure to be extremely careful the first month after the surgery with the hair graphs.  I use a strict regiment as well of dutasteride, rogaine, ketoconazole shampoo 2%, IRestore laser helmet. I’ve taken pictures through out the process. I’m just wondering if this is a failed surgery and I need to contact my hair doctor. The first photo was taken 1 week prior to the surgery. The second photo was take 1 week ago. The other photos are the progression up to the second photo in order.

So a year prior I got a hair transplant on my front hair line and it went fantastic as well amazing results. This would be my second hair transplant  but first primarily focused on the crown.

Hi

Did you go to the same clinic that did your first Ht? At only 6 months out on a crown this is usually the start of growth.

I have had multiple work on my crown and each time it’s taken up to beyond 12 months to see much of a improvement.

I actually went to a different clinic for the FUE procedure, it seemed to have a more prestigious doctor for FUE and that’s why I choose it

Who was the clinics you chose? Thank you 🙏

I agree with what Phil said in regards to managing your expectations for crown work differently than you would for the hairline. While I agree that as of now, there's not a clear cosmetic difference, A) it's still relatively early and B) the crown is notorious for being particularly challenging anyway, so be extra patient with it. I think this could still work out in your favor, and all you can really do at the moment is monitor it over the next couple months and see if you start seeing some progress.

Crown transplants can take longer to progress. Usually upto 18 months. Keep monitoring and dont be concerned at this stage.

6 months is too early to call it a failure, the crown can take longer to grow. Stay patient, wish you the best.
