i am about 15 days post op. on occassion i gently massage my scalp and i often see hairs amognst the flakes of skin .

 

is this normal , sometimes it looks like a bulb like shape , is this a graft lost or is this normal??

You should really ask your clinic first as they are familiar with your case but from the sounds of it, you're fine. The hairs that were in the grafts transplanted are supposed to come out and will continue to do so for the next few weeks. Some will come out with flakes of skin or scabs, some will come out with nothing attached.

Sounds perfectly normal DD. Those grafts took hold 48 hours post-op and were firmly planted at 8-10 days (you'd have to surgically remove them I would think at that point). Sad to see them go, but they'll be back soon!
