Did I ruin my hair transplant 6 months post op

[Seb1928 0]

So I am 6 months post op on my second hair transplant. Things are filling up slowly. In the past few weeks I have noticed a lot of fine hair in my hair line.

Few days ago after my haircut I took a shower and scrub my scalp harder than usual and after my shower it looks like I rubbed off a lot of previously transplanted hair but also I couldn't notice any of those newly fine growing hair.

I am wondering if it's possible to ripped off or damaged newly growing graft at 6 months post op ?

I've been shedding lots of hair lately so I am hoping it is only a shed.

 The first two Pictures are before shower and the last two are after

 

Thanks for the reading

Your grafts are securely anchored after the first couple of weeks. Let’s hope your just going through a seasonal shed. Nothing to worry about.

You can't rub off transplanted hair once it's growing. It's your hair. It grows from your head just like it did before.

Thanks guys appreciate the answers. It's harsh going from progress back to almost day 1. Guess it's just a waiting game now

Hi Seb1928 - is there any update on how your 2nd hair transplant is progressing? I am considering getting a 2nd hair transplant to add density. I am concerned about shock loss- especially permanent of grafts from the 1st transplant.

Have your shock loss grafts recovered? How are you feeling about the 2nd procedure?
