3rd FUT Procedure Shock Loss


Recommended Posts

Is it common to see shock loss occur in the donor area ~2.5 months after the procedure? I am experiencing loss in my donor area after my third FUT procedure and feeling pretty nervous. Also, I'm not sure if it's related but that area seems to be more sensitive with intermittent periods of warmth.

Yes shock loss can occur in the donor area or especially the grafted area post-op.

It's related to how our scalp responds to the level of trauma experienced from the procedure.

With each procedure done in same area of donor region there there is a chance of increased tightness, tenderness and scarring. It would probably be a god idea to have your doctor take a look at the area to make sure things are healing properly and rule out any infection.
