    Hey BadBeat, I have a question about this "shock loss" that you referred to in this post. I had my first procedure done about a week ago, and when I left the room, my hair was considerably thinner than it was prior-to (my 50% density or so gone). However, I've heard that "shock loss" is supposed to occur several months after the fact. So I guess my question is, what do you think happened? Is it possible that shock loss occurred during the surgery, or was hair likely simply cut above the surface and I can't visibly see? Or, is it possible that hair was damaged during the incisions (please no)? Thanks in advance.

    Is it very common for hair to be cut during the surgery and you not know it? Is it just cut really close to the base so I can't see? The reason I ask is because I had a fair amount of density going into the surgery last week, and now I have about half or less. I would think it would be far to soon for me to be experiencing shock loss, but I'm not sure. Thanks!

    Hey MikeIB, I think I have a similar situation as you. I came into the surgery with hair, and when I got out, I had lost almost half my density. I was shocked (no pun intended) since I was told that shock loss happens 3 months or so after the fact. I have way less hair now, and am wondering whether a) it was simply cut during the transplant and I can't tell b)it could be real shock loss in such a short amount of time or c) there were transections and the hair is permanently damaged. What was your experience? I have done a lot of research and your case is the most similar to mine, since ours both happened the day after surgery.
