Regular Member Regs Posted August 6, 2018 Regular Member Share Posted August 6, 2018 I had an fut HT 32 days ago. Here are some pics of the back donor area before hair cut and after. Is this shock loss? If so, how long does it usually take to grow back? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted August 7, 2018 Administrators Share Posted August 7, 2018 Hi Regs, Welcome to the forum, it does appear to be some slight shock loss around the strip incision, it may take a few months to grow back. Have you tried to use minoxidil in the area to stimulate growth? I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic. My comments are not medical advice.

Hopefully it will grow back in ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member SWdan Posted August 7, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted August 7, 2018 That's very similar to what I had. 3 1/2- 4 months it was filled back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
