I had a 1565 follicular unit transplant 3.5 months ago and I seem to be experiancing a more rapid pace of growth on my frontal hairline compared to that of the growth on my crown. I am curious to know weather of not this is common and if the number of hairs within each follicular unit impacts the rate of growth? The doctor who operated on me put 3 and 4 hair follicular units on the crown and 1 and 2 hair units in the frontal region.

Almost every patient will experience varied rates of growth by where in the scalp you are looking. I have seen the crown exceed the frontal growth rates and visa versa. You must have patience. Generally you can expect newly transplanted hair to grow within 8 months. You seem to have a relatively early growth and I suspect the transplanted crown area to catchup.
