Rahul had thinning across the front and top of the scalp. He was photographed from the same angles at 6 and 8 months, so this journey shows how much the result changes between those two visits.
The Journey, Month by Month
Before: Front
A receding hairline and thinning across the front.
Before: Top
From above, the thinning runs back across the top of the scalp.
Six Months
The hairline has filled in and coverage is established.
Eight Months
Hair has gained thickness and the front looks settled.
Eight Months: Top
From above, the top is now covered.
Later Follow-Up
Photographed at a later visit.
Why we show the middle months: shedding at weeks 3–6 and patchy growth at month 3 are the two points where patients most often think a transplant has failed. Both are normal stages of the hair growth cycle. Full results typically mature at 10–12 months, and longer at the crown.
