buzzcutaspiration Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 these fell out of my head (I'm day 6 post op, and the scabbing is now starting to drop off). I may or may not be guilty of occasionally brushing my recipient area with my fingertips (I'm not digging in with my nails). Mostly it's just scabbing that's coming off, or a shed hair. What are these, though? They look suspiciously like full grafts that have fallen out entirely. Kind of annoying. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted August 1, 2019 Administrators Share Posted August 1, 2019 No, those are just the follicles that have shed. The grafts are already anchored in your scalp and will remain dormant for the next 3-4 months. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

buzzcutaspiration Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 Thanks for the insight. I wish there were more photos of what dried follicles vs. dead grafts looked like Hopefully this post is useful to others as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member LaserCap Posted August 1, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted August 1, 2019 Yes, that's pretty much what they look like. If a graft had been lost - you would have known. Lots of bleeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
