Yes. Transplanted hairs grow. If the patient observes care during the post surgery period, almost all the transplanted hair will grow. Factors that may hinder growth of new hair are:
- Hitting or scratching the transplanted hair the first few days after hair transplant
- Wearing tight head gear after the surgery may pull out the grafts
- Drinking alcohol or smoking too much a few days after the surgery
- Exposing the sensitive recipient area to the sun
