Will Transplants to the Crown Area be Successful?
During hair transplantation, it’s important to know that the areas where hair is transplanted are divided into three primary sections: After implantation, the growth speed and success rate of transplanted hair vary depending on the area due to differences in blood circulation. The frontal and middle regions benefit from better blood flow, achieving about 90% success rate with growth generally completing in 7–11 months. Conversely, the crown area has relatively weaker blood circulation, resulting in a reduced success rate of about 50–60%. Hair growth in this area may take up to 15 months. When the transplanted area is wide, experts recommend placing more grafts in the frontal region to maximize visible results. This strategy, however, is less effective in the crown area due to lower blood circulation and less fat tissue to nourish the grafts. Even with supportive treatments such as vitamins and medical care, 50–60% success is typical. For example, in a case where 1000 grafts are transplanted to the crown, around 600 grafts are expected to successfully grow. Hair in the crown area grows more slowly than in the front. While frontal grafts reach full growth in about 7–11 months, the crown area may take up to 1 year and 3 months. This difference is due to anatomical structure and blood flow dynamics. Everyone undergoing a transplant will experience these patterns to some degree. So, if you're asking, "Will my hair grow in the crown area after a transplant?" — the answer is yes, but growth rates and timing will vary per person.🌱 Hair Transplant Growth in Different Areas
