Is this normal ? Pls advice me

[WARD]

Hi All

 

it was a hard week seeking answers about my situation , I did my hair transplant before last Christmas and I was following the whole instruction , but till now after 3 1/2 month still some hair fall down with white dots or bulbs , when I just touch my scalp , did anyone face it ? is it normal ? hair will grow again ? why this happening ? are the hair roots still there ? am I supposed to be in the growing level now ? and may be hundred of questions still in my head . what is really shocking me the white dots !! pls advice me

by white dots do you mean (1) dried sebum plugs or castings attached to the hair or (2) just the hair root tiny bulb?

 

how many are you losing btw?

could be hairs cycling out to grow back later, I wouldn't worry about too much it it's still in the early stages where you will see various growth and shedding of your hair, if the number is low..

Thanks a lot ...

 

I think its a white bulb attached with hair ( tiny bulb ) , its a very small round one , and that happen when I touch my scalp !! around 15 t0 25 per day !!

is it normal ? does transplanted hair grow and fall and again grow and fall ?

I did 5351 grafts in one session in turkey .

 

do you think roots are out or hair will grow again ?

[hsrp10]

what does your doctor say? and how is the health of your scalp, any acne or bad dandruff?

 

don't use any harsh shampoos at this stage like Nizoral and follow what your docs says.

also did you recently (past few months) start or stop any hair medications like Propecia or Minoxidil?

 

try not to worry too much but monitor it closely

Thanks , my doctor in turkey and iam in Canada , no contacts with him ?

iam using minoxidle twice a week only as per his instruction .

 

are the white bulbs hair roots or no ?

Grafts will bleed when dislodged. If not, you need not worry too much. But only your doctor can review and provide an accurate answer to your question.
