Hi, I had HT of 4200 follicles 45 days ago, I feel my donor area still not looking well and got some very thin sites especially at the boundaries of the donor area.. I have shaved my hair and it looked better, however, whenever the hair gets longer the donor area becomes very noticeable.. My photo is attached here (before shave- day 30) (after shave - day 45).. is that normal? How long it needs before it looks again as before?

Answer: Donor overharvesting Hi there. Transplanting more than 2500 follicles in one session is never a good idea for a number of reasons. Despite the risks of permanent shock loss, disregard for future hair loss and managing your donor area; large procedures are still performed. In your pictures there are some areas that appear to be overharvested and you do have some shock loss a percentage of which maybe permanent.
