When Might You Need a Second Hair Transplant?

Quick answer: Some people consider a second hair transplant because their hair loss continues around the transplanted area, they want more density, or they want to refine the result. Whether it is possible depends on remaining donor hair and medical advice.
Ongoing hair loss
Native hair may continue to thin.
Density
A second session may add density.
Other options
SMP or Simulation & Stimulation may complement a transplant. See hair transplant alternative.
