I 'd a hair transplant of 6000 grafts 11 days ago .Tonight,I washed my head gently rubbed donor area with fingers and direct touches with shampoo to the recipient area as per doctor's advise.What scared me is that I could pull out some scabs from my the transplanted area they looked like grafts and had hair in it. what I already know is that hairs grown from the transplanted grafts fall (3rd- 4th week) and regrow after 2 months .But grafts themselves fall ?? is that normal ? what's left?

Answer: Hair Transplant Dear Sami_YounisThanks for the question. Shedding of hair grafts after a operation can be noticed anywhere between 1-5 months after the hair transplant procedure. Patients are often alarmed by the continued loss of hair, however, a few months after the operation, they can be assured that new hairs will eventually grow back again. I wish you all the best.

Answer: Can Grafts Be Pulled out 10 Days After a Hair Transplant? The grafts at 10 days post op are all healed in place. Only trauma can disrupt the these graft now. Simple pulling of the hair will not cause harm.

Answer: Can grafts be pulled out 10 days after transplant? While it is difficult to say whether or not you were pulling out grafts or just removing scabs with shedding hair shafts, I never recommend picking at the scabs due to the potential risk for graft removal. That being said, it is difficult to remove the grafts after about one week. I tell my patients just to wash the recipient area gently without picking at the scabs. With any hair transplant, there will be a small percentage of grafts that are lost or unsuccessful, but overall this number should be quite small. All this best,
