Q: I understand that seeing the result of a hair transplant is a process – what can I expect? — L.L., Highland Park, T.X.
A: It generally takes a year to see the full results of a hair transplant. Growth usually begins around 2 1/2 to 3 months and at 6-8 months the hair transplant starts to become comb-able.
Over the course of a year, the hair will gain in thickness and in length and may also change in character. During this time, hair will often become silkier, less kinky or take on a wave, depending upon the original characteristics of the patient’s hair.
In subsequent hair restoration procedures, growth can be slower.
