I have a lot of thick hair(33y) but had a norwood 2.5 hairline so I've been on finasteride since I was in my early 20's, and had a HT to close the hairline corners and front over four years ago for around 1300 grafts with Dr Bisanga.
The guy is a class act, his team was terrific and everything went excellent ,I've been very happy with the results ;
The problem is that literally a year ago in july 2020 I had a sudden hair fall of ONLY TRANSPLANTED hairs out of the blue within a few days on the following occasions:
1- On July 2020 of one section of the right corner hairline hair fell
2-On August some transplanted hairs of the left center hairline fell
3-On September the middle of the right hairline thinned
4-On Christmas the high left corner of the hairline fell completely
5-Early March 2021 within a few days areas of the entire right side of the hairline (which looked perfectly full and recovered already)thinned out overall
6-Barely a week ago, June 2021 the transplanted hairs on the low corner and middle of the left side has fallen dramatically
The hair grows back without an issue, in all areas.
I was specific to mention the areas of hair fall, because it seems that different sections fell at different times and regrew , but I don't think the exact section went through the sudden loss of hair twice so far, although I'm not 100% positive, but the loss it is always very noticeable as I am very aware of the hair
What the hell is this?
I'm thinking that perhaps the reason of this is that hair cycle of all the transplanted hairs is reset to a similar timing once they are transplanted, and now 4 years or so later of anagen phase, they all go into the telogen, exogen phase within a very close time window of each other and hence what I am experiencing
Any input would be appreciated it, specially from the Bisanga team, as it's been a year already with unstable hair going through ugly duckling stages in different sections of the transplanted area and it's very unnerving
Thank You
