Regular Member bablu Posted August 17, 2017 Regular Member Share Posted August 17, 2017 Hello everyone! I recently had my 2nd hair transplant 4 weeks before of 900 grafts. My donor area was pretty dense then. But after the procedure it has thinned out especially above the right ear. Its almost like its bald. Its really concerning. I have attached a poc. What do you think. Is it the shock loss in donor area or is there minituarisation. Although i highly doubt minituarisation beacuse it was all dense before procedure? Will it return. Also a thing happened after the procedure on my right side there was some considerable pain i think due to a large pimple that got attacked while procedure. Is that the reason of shock loss there? Pleasecan someone say what's happening Thankyou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hairman22 Posted August 17, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted August 17, 2017 Most likely it is shock loss. After my transplants I had some shock loss & my hair in donor & in some area's on top of head turned grey. It did recover quickly though but it was strange.

What do you think is it shock loss or minituarisation.By the way there was no minituarisation before procedure. So i guess it cant be all of sudden.

Senior Member hairthere Posted August 17, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted August 17, 2017 Certainly looks like shockloss. It's caused by surgical trauma/disruption of blood flow to the donor area and as hairman22 mentioned should recover after a few months. If you are really concerned you should consult with your doctor, though.
