I am freaking out like crazy!
Everything went great during my hair transplant! I followed all instructions as given by my doctor afterwards and everything looked great up until today, 17 days post-op.
Actually, it started on day 14! That was when I lost a graft! It wasn't just hair shedding, but I lost the whole graft! There was bleeding and stinging afterwards. I could also see it was the follicle/graft.
Today, day 17, I lost another two grafts, with bleeding and stinging. On closer inspection in the mirror afterwards, I noticed I have several other raised bumps that appear to be lose grafts. I suspect they are going to be rejected in time as well.
What is going on? I thought that after day 10 everything was secure and that nothing would be lost by this time.
I live and work overseas and my hair transplant doctor is a plane ride away so I cannot easily go and see him for a follow-up consultation. I have sent him an email though, but any feedback from anyone on the site would really, really be appreciated.
Hair loss has affected my self-esteem for years and now that I have finally built up the courage to have this procedure done, I don't want to loose these hairs.
PLEASE HELP!
