Regular Member newly Posted March 1, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted March 1, 2009 Hi all, I'm 6 days post op from a small (500)FUE procedure. Everything appears fine. But, I was gently combing my hair this morning and noticed what appeared to be a loose graft?? It was two small hairs that were joined at the bottom by the white membraney (for lack of better terms) looking stuff. There was no bulb at the end....just 2 small hairs joined together by the small white tube looking thing..haha. My doc told me everything should be set by day 4. I just want to make sure this isn't a loose graft and if I should be looking out for this again? No bulb at the end, just 2 small hairs that looked like they were cut. Thanks!!

Regular Member newly Posted March 1, 2009 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 1, 2009 Sorry for responding to my own post, but I just want to be as specific as possible....but, I should mention there was no bleeding when the 2 hairs wrapped in fleshy tube substance popped out. Thanks for any help or response! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Glenn Charles Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 It is unlikely that you lost a graft after 6 days. It would have definitely bled if the follicle (root) was dislodged. It is common for scabs with the hairs embedded in them to start falling off from 6-10 days post-op.
