New hair growing 4 weeks after HT?

[jconley]

Hi all,

So, I had a FUT about 4 weeks ago. A lot of hair has fallen out, as I expected it to, no big deal. What is throwing me a little bit is that I seem to be getting new hairs growing already. They're just peeking out but they are definitely there, and they don't seem "wispy". Also, I am getting a lot of acne on my scalp, which I've read is to be expected once new growth occurs. That said, it seems way too early to see any growth at all. Do some small number of grafts just remain in the growth phase, or should I expect these new hairs to fall out before I get "real" growth? Coinciding with the HT, I also began Propecia for the first time. It also seems too soon to get any results from that. I'm going to grow my hair out as much as possible to cover up the acne because it's significant, and I'm wondering if I'll have more as more grafts begin to yield results. Basically I'm just wondering what's going on and if this is typical.

Apologies if I'm posting this in the wrong place or if this has been discussed before. I searched and couldn't find anything about it.

Thank you for any insight you can provide!
