Q8 Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Hello guys I'm currently 13 days post op after 3300 FUT. A couple of days ago I started noticing hairs with dried tissue coming off my transplanted area while washing my head. Look at the attachment. There was no bleeding or any discomfort whatsoever. Did I lose grafts, these were just few, and I saw a lot more of them. I never scratched or scrubbed the transplanted area. I simply starting on day 10 to GENTLY Massage the area with circular motion while showering I'm currently freaking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Maxxy Posted February 16, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted February 16, 2010 Welcome Q8, At 9-10 days your grafts are fully secure, you're simply seeing shedding hairs accompanied with scabs and/or dry tissue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hairthere Posted February 16, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted February 16, 2010 As Maxxy has pointed out, that's totally normal. You should be more aggressive with your washing at this point to get rid of the scabs.
