If you wanted to say "after the chemo" you would say "9 months after the chemo". "after 9 months of chemo" means 9 months of chemo.

Some people lose their hair after starting chemo - usually in the first month or two. The speaker is implying that this happened (hair was lost early in the chemo treatment) but now that chemo (has presumably) ended, her hair is growing back.
