skyline Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Most people start to shed the new transplants around 10-14 days post op. My scalp isn't red at all and I never got any pimples. I'm approaching my third week(18 days) and I would say 95% of the 3000 are still there and have even grown. Probably just jinxed myself, but is this common and is this even desirable?

Senior Member TakingThePlunge Posted May 13, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted May 13, 2011 Skyline, You can still shed some of the transplanted hairs but some guys do report that these hairs continue to grow. I couldn't put a figure on how many. You may be one of the lucky few! David - Former Forum Co-Moderator and Editorial Assistant I am not a medical professional.
