When will newly transplanted hair start to grow? – Dr. Niranjana Raj

So when hair gets transplanted, it takes atleast 5 days for it to get properly fixed. By 10th day, the roots are getting fixed, but the external portion of the hair which is transplanted starts falling. By the end of the second week onwards, you see a rapid shedding of hair. At this stage everybody gets scared that the hair is going to go but, it is not that the hair is going, the roots are still inside. The hair will start growing, around 2 and a half months and it is not that all the hairs will start growing at the same time. Some hairs will start around 2 and half months. Some will start growing around 4 months. But form 4 months onwards you will see relatively all the hair are started growing. The results early stage will be seen around 6 months of transplant.
