Now this image is after 5 months No thickness yet.

Has there ever been any research into avoiding the dredded sheding of transplanted hair because it would be great if it grew straight away without all the pimples.

i can not tell anything from them pictures.

Do the hairs pull out or are they firmly anchored?

yes its very hard I cant pull out

Sorry I cant edit my first post ..

and Unfortunately I got only one pic of the first day. and second is today.

first taken on 10 jan 2015

now its 22 may 2015

Can you post some pictures of before, right after surgery and what you look like now? It's difficult to give any advice or make comments without seeing what you looked like pre-op and what you look like now.

Thanks I will put it..

Thats what I meant - are the transplanted hairs actually growing and not just remaining static. Mine grew from day one.

yes its growing on day first but I m not satisfied with result.

Has the hair grown?

Yes they are growing

Ukboy,

 

When you say, "hair not falling" we assume that you mean your grafts have not shedded, is that correct?

yes shedding

If so, that is somewhat out of the norm, but not necessarily a bad thing. It could be that some of your grafts have continued to grow however many of them should be shedding at 3 months post-op.

 

Here's a suggestion. Using your fingertips, simply pull some of the graft hair and see if they come off. If so, then it's really a matter of getting more pro-active in removing the dead graft hair shafts. At 3 months post-op, your recipient zone must be fully healed by now and so any of the crusts would be removed. If they are not removed, the new hair shafts cannot get through the sites where the crusts still exist and that is probably what your doctor was referring to when he was explaining the regrowth results.

NO its very hard I cant pull out a single one.

If you still have the crusts, get in the shower and shampoo up your scalp, let the suds saturate your scalp for roughly 5 minutes or so and then begin to rub off the crusts. At this point in time, they serve no purpose because the crusts are nothing more than dead graft tissue above the scalp line. By getting them wet in the shower will soften them up and make them easier to remove. You will see that most of the graft hair will come off with the crusts.

Every now and then, I hear from a guy who is not removing the crusts after 7-10 days because he is just being extra careful and think removing them is not a good idea.

 

If you read and review many of the post-op instructions that clinics provide, they advise their patients to remove these dead crusts after 7-10 days. For those individuals who heal under normal time frames, 10 days is more than sufficient time for the recipient sites to heal enough for the crusts to be removed.

 

Once your recipient is cleaned up, the new hair shafts have a clear path to grow through the scalp.

 

Then you should start seeing a difference with new regrowth coming through.

 

Feel better now my friend?...

At the day of transplant dr said to me that my hair will be falling after 2 weeks

I am worried.

I contact to doctor and he said It must be fallen otherwise result will be compromised.

Please tell me I am in real pain.

Why not my hair falling to Regrow new ?
