Updated pic and questions regarding post FUE - 4 to 5 month mark

[swingline747]

So I had my FUE done Feb 13th
These were taken the beginning of this month (June)

I have FINALLY started seeing some growth after my scares but now Im in a another bit of concern.
These hairs literally just popped out of no where. Like bare one day then BAM there.
Its very patchy and one temple is quite fuller than the other.
Both online reading and the Dr said the hairs grow in different stages depending on their shock and phase they were extracted in but Im just curious.

If you zoom into the pic you can see some small vellus hairs in there. Is there a way to know if they are new hairs strengthening or just old hairs dying? I want to beleive they are the new hairs coming out but cant be sure as nothing has really changed in a while.

I know it can take 6 to 18 months for true growth to really show but just wanted some other FUE guys to tell me if this is normal and how theirs grew.
Im worried about that right temple that seems REALLY bare still. thanks

It's common for men to spend a lot of time examining and analyzing their recipient areas. At this stage, the grafts are in there for good and you'll be a lot happier person if you avoid spending too much time looking at them. If you can't yet tell the difference between miniaturizing hairs and new growth, that's a good thing. That means you don't have pitting or tenting.
