Regular Member joejohns Posted January 24, 2014 Author Regular Member Share Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) Photos showing extent of devastation.....All you veterans, please tell me this is not a rogaine 5% shed and only a shock loss. I have lost quite a little ground on top too. But nothing like this. And all that I lost on top are transplanted hairs from my first HT.

Senior Member Since21 Posted January 24, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted January 24, 2014 Do you have any before pics? So has the dermatologist seen this kind of thing before? Did he seem to have experience with HTs? I imagine any kind of reassurance you get at this point will be of little comfort until it starts growing back. Hang in there. 3,425 FUT grafts with Dr Raymond Konior - Nov 2013 1,600 FUE grafts with Dr Raymond Konior - Dec 2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member joejohns Posted January 24, 2014 Author Regular Member Share Posted January 24, 2014 Well since you suggested him, I did check into him. He seems to be a world renowned Derm. He said he has seen this before and he was very very sure this is TE shedding due to the trauma of the HT. Suggested a few shampoos, biotin and vivscal to me. He was almost certain as he saw a lot of hairs falling with the white bulb at the bottom, which he said was a clear sign of shed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
