Hey guys, Whats the transplanted area sposed to look like 6 - 7 weeks post op? The area at the moment is light pink color with basicly no hairs. This is normal right? i mean no hairs. Should it look like it did before the surgery or would there be any stubble or anything?

Is it alirght to start lifting heavy weights after 1 month. If not why? It was a FUE proceudre although my post op instructions say that after 1 month its ok to lift light weight nothing about heavy weights. I would understand FUSS but FUE? Would it have any damage to the new hair / recipient area? That area is still light pink with very very little scabbing.

would losing the hair bulb or ball mean that i could no longer generate that particular hair? i don't quite understand how it all works. Is a follicle just the hair shaft and the bulb or is it more that that? Does it matter that these hairs have the balls on the end and does that mean that i have lost the follicle?

thanks for all the info. i wouldnt say ive had any bleeding in the area, only the bits with more heavier areas of scabbing went a bit more red than other parts. All i can do is wait! how horrible. Nevermind though, ill start applying my rogaine foam that has just arrived to try and speed up the process.

would i be right in saying that the hair follicle is made up from DNA though and is part of the skin? so if the graft has taken then it shouldn't matter if the bulb has fallen out? and it should regrow another hair bulb? Does that make any sense or am i just picking things up wrong from sites and only hearing what i want to hear?

i didnt touch them for the first 2 or 3 weeks then since then I have been keeping my head wet all of the time soaking my head in the bath and showering frequently during the day to keep the scabs soft. Then in the past few days i have been gently rubbing them off. I havnt picked at them. If anything ive been conservative.

Hello, i had a hair transplant 3 and a half weeks ago and have been removing the scabs this week. I am a little concerned if i have lost any grafts. pic1 pic2 pic3 The area is a light pink now but the areas of some of the heavier scabs a little red and look slightly raw. I have basicly no hairs now where the hair was transplanted! Do you think i have lost follicles, what are the little black things at the bottom of the hair shaft? (pic 3 seems to be the best quality)
