I had an eyebrow transplantation 12 days ago, from day 9 after the surgery till today ( day 12 ) i found my newly tranplanted hair fall off with crust during washing my face , i didn't scratch them or pick them up, what i do is washing my brows with soup and do circular motion. Did I lost those graft and disrupt them? or this is normal ?

If you have decent eyebrows you probably should reconsider having surgery or see a doctor for a proper exam.Transplanted hair on the eyebrow can sometimes grow in different directions and not match with the existing eyebrow hair. You would also have to continue to trim the transplanted...
Since you had an eyebrow transplant, that should be adequate to get growth of the eyebrow. Minoxidil may irritate your condition and may not be needed if an adequate transplant was done
Nose hair would be impractical to try to harvest. And although it might seem like there is a lot, there really isn't. It is just at the very front of the nose.
