Should I be concerned?

[SeanT1]

Hello everyone, HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I'm one week away from hitting that wonderful 4 month mark.
However, when looking at my transplant I feel concern, I worry that it should have progressed a lot more by now.
When looking at other members pictures at 4 months; their hair is much thicker and less patchy.  What are your thoughts?

It’s the absolute starting point for most people. 4 months is where the grafts usually start to break through the scalp. We all have different timelines but this is the point it will start for most. 
Early growth is not the norm..

Some lucky people are ahead of you at this stage but this is the exception not the rule. Looks like you are on track.

I would say you are right at the point where everything starts to take off. You can already see new growth and other hairs popping through as well.

You guys are a dream team.  Thanks for confirming.

Real change came to me around 5.5 months

SeanTowman,

Most hair transplant patients start experiencing new growth between 3 and 5 miners after surgery.  And most patients start feeling moderate levels of anxiety during this time because they’re afterword they won’t obtain the expected and desired result.  That said, everything starts experiencing growth at different times and even though you have concerns, everything looks normal for this stage.  Just try to hang to relax and distract yourself   Before you in know it, the time will have passed and your hair transplant will be fully matured.

Best wishes,
