Minimal sun exposure most likely did not damage your grafts. If you are concerned, follow up with your doctor for an exam.

It may take 8-12 months before seeing the final results of your hair transplant surgery. If you are concerned with the density and shape, schedule an appointment with your surgeon for an exam.

Shedding is the loss of the transplanted hairs. Shock loss on the other hand is hair loss surrounding the transplanted area. Generally, the hair lost during shock loss will return.

At 4.5 months, you can use any shampoo. All doctors have slightly different care instructions. If you are concerned, it is best to discuss it with your doctor.
