Hi, I have operated FUE transplant and post surgery has taken the utmost care in sleeping, medicines, application of medicines and cleaning. On day 11 I was cleaning the scabs with surgical spirit and cotton on recipient area, I observed that a lot of hairs came out along with scabs. I have not applied the excessive pressure but just gentle cleaning and soft rubbing with cotton. I am really worried about this.

Answer: Scabs with Hair Hopefully your doctor told you that the hairs would fall out- this is perfectly normal and expected. They'll usually shed up until the two month mark, after which it's just about waiting for a few months for the hairs starting to regrow.

Answer: Shedding on the 11th day These hairs will sooner or later shed. They are never a problem for new hairs that start to grow. Usually, there is a lag time between the time the hairs shed (2-8 weeks) and the time the new hair grows (3-8 months). IF for any reason, there is an overlap between the two, pay no attention to it for when the new hair grows, the old hairs from the grafts that may persist beyond 8 weeks, will eventually shed
