HT1 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Hallo, I got my hair transplantation at about 2 weeks ago about 2500 grafts. My donor is very dense and now 2 weeks after transplantation I think it got overharvested, the area is very thinned, I will put some new photos tomorrow and will inform you. What do you think about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member ITA Posted January 14, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted January 14, 2023 At two weeks it is impossible to understand if it is an overharvest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member asterix0 Posted January 14, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted January 14, 2023 So it isn't over harvested in the sense they took too many grafts. 2500, if done properly, should not over harvest your donor in that surface area. However, they likely did not know how to do the extractions properly so they damaged adjacent tissue, thus caused larger scaring in diameter. So, your donor will appear over harvested like they took 5000 grafts, even though they only took 2500. However, at this point there is nothing you can do but wait it out. Hopefully it is mostly shock loss that will recover in the upcoming months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HT1 Posted January 15, 2023 Author Share Posted January 15, 2023 So you can see the line, i dont think it is shock loss, i think it is overharvested and i have to wait. I am very sad about that because actually i chose i clinic which meant to be good. It was hairmedic in Dortmund, Germany. I read some examples in this forum who get along with it with longer hair. If that even doesnt work i will have to think about Donor repair in a Year? I read bisanga is a good idea? it is so frustrating because i really thought i chose a good one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HT1 Posted January 15, 2023 Author Share Posted January 15, 2023 And I read @mustang, about his donor repair, so mwamba would be a good idea as well of it wont improve enough the following year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted January 15, 2023 Administrators Share Posted January 15, 2023 I take it you didn’t watch the video. Two weeks is too soon to tell how your donor will end up. Right now it looks like a patch, but that could be shock loss. The example I showed in the video completely recovered. Unfortunately, only time will tell how it will end up. If it was 2,500 grafts I doubt it was overharvested. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic. My comments are not medical advice.

Whether it's seeing the full effect of hair growth or just allowing the donor and the entire scalp for that matter to heal. You really want to keep busy and look back after 12 months. I'm at 12 months now and things kept changing and improving even at 10 months.

HT1 Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 Hello, I can definitely recommend hairmedic in Dortmund. I am very happy with my result thus far. After 4 or 5 months my donor looked very good. Patience is the right way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
