To be truthful, I have no knowledge about hair transplant success or failure rates, so I did some research for you.
The way in which hair grafts were extracted, trimmed and inserted can affect the hair transplant failure rate. The doctor must employ a very refined technique and use the smallest tools possible in order not to damage the hair follicles. How the grafts are prepared before they are inserted can also make a difference. How long grafts were out of the body and whether they were in a special solution to prevent them from drying out can also make a difference.
Beside transplant technique as a reason for failure, your own health may play a role. Thyroid problems, an autoimmune problem and a fungal infection are just a few possible examples.
I suggest you report this to the specialist who performed the hair transplant.
Consulting your primary care physician and a dermatologist might be helpful.
