Buster Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 Today is 4 week post op. I had my HT mostly done to the front hair line to reinforce it. I've been reading a lot about "Shock Loss" and I think that's whats been happening. The entire site of the HT has lost existing hair. Enough to be quite noticable. I'm very concerned. Dr. Bernstien says this is all normal and that whetever is lost usually comes back. I was hoping for some first hand advise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 buster, dr. b did 1285 grafts on me a year and a half ago, i had some shedding,but not total as you describe. everyone is different,some will come back and some won't,cause it was probably on it's way out anyway.however the be cosmetic benefit from the new hair will outweigh the lost.i'm going for round two next month,i'm looking forward to end this hairloss shit with my second procedure,the first one looks really good,just gonna add some density,and hope it will be the last. good luck and healing.
