Senior Member Spanker Posted August 19, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted August 19, 2013 Wow, that is strange. Any change it could be lighting and the length of hair?

No change in lighting at all. All 3 pics were clicked at my rum. A very minimal change in length.. I cn clearly see the difference in shedding during shower or on pillow or when applying minoxidil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Nick153452 Posted August 19, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted August 19, 2013 I am not entirely sure :-/. I would like to get Blake's or a doctor's opinion for this situation. It does seem a little odd to me.

Senior Member s2thoudriver Posted August 20, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted August 20, 2013 How rapid was your hairloss prior to your surgery? Did you have steady loss over a number of years (e.g 10)? or were you experiencing a sudden loss/increase over say the last 2? It might be that you are just continuing to loose your remaining native hairs, as the receesing parts of your sclap where hair was transplanted seem to still have coverage. Also, you may just be experiencing some seasonal shedding, it happens a couple of times a year. For me, one of the times is in the summer, which is double bad as my hair goes a lot lighter so looks even thinner! Just wait a month or 2 and see how things progress or get worse. You still have great coverage so nothign to worry abotu at this stage. Regards Rob 2800 FUE, Istanbul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hsrp10 Posted August 20, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted August 20, 2013 Are you using any harsh shampoos like Nizoral 2%? If so stop. Or are under a lot of stress recently? Could also be a seasonal shed, do you usually shed more in summer? Anyway contact your HT surgeon and get his input. go dense or go home Unbiased advice and opinions based on 25 plus years of researching and actual experience with hair loss, hair restoration via both FUT & FUE, SMP, scalp issues including scalp eczema & seborrheic dermatitis and many others HSRP10's favorite FUT surgeons: *Dr. Konior, *Dr Hasson, Dr. Rahal HSRP10's favorite FUE surgeons: *Dr. Konior, *Dr. Bisanga, Dr. Erdogan, Dr. Couto (*indicates actual experience with doctor) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Mercury Posted August 20, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted August 20, 2013 How old are you? Are you still losing hair as we all do that have hair loss? Also, where did they take the hair from? Life is like a game of cards. The hand that is dealth you represents determinism; the way you play it is free will.

Regular Member amanmehra11 Posted August 24, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 24, 2013 i think the major issue of high hair loss is these pimples. I am experiencing some pimples and when these dry, a bunch of hair falls with it. See attached picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member irishsailor Posted August 24, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted August 24, 2013 I know I lost some density at around the year mark, but believe that was due to my hair maturing and losing some of the coarseness.
