How many days after Hair Transplant will shock loss occur?

Shock hair loss does not always occur after surgery.  If you were to have shock hair loss you would probably start to notice it in the first month or two.  There is no rule or set time frame.  Onion juice will not help.

Hello,Shock loss is due to the loss of normal hair whether it is from donor site or recipient area.  It can occur with both FUE and strip procedures.  Usually if it occurs it will take place in the recipient area.  
Shock loss from hair transplant can occur due to the following:
Anesthesia-  excessively long procedures taking longer than 12 hours can induce shock loss more likely.  the repeated use of lidocaine, marcaine, and perhaps most importantly epinephrine can affect nourishment of the hairTraumatic harvest-  In strip surgery, traumatic harvest can induce shock loss.  Recipient area trauma- during the incision making process the hairs are either crushed or cut and damaged during the process.Ways to minimize shock loss are as follows:
Improve recipient bed and donor area environment.  Make your recipient environment improved by addition of growth factors and/or PRP to help reduce incidence of shock loss to native hairs.Use of Rogaine and Propecia- can help miniaturized hair become more stable and less likely to fall out during procedure9xRobotArtas-  The latest version of the robot can make recipient sites and can determine angle of existing hair and help ensure that the angle will not damage existing hair.  Especially helpful in patients where you are transplanting hair to create densityMinimize anesthesia time and procedure time- We limit number of grafts to a safe number per session.  Extended anesthesia periods and harvest times can cause patients to have a higher chance of shock loss.  The 9x Robot harvests between 1000-1500 grafts per hour making it superior to previous additions and traditional FUE approaches.Best,

Hair shock loss usually occurs 2-8 weeks after surgery.  It can be a devastating complication.  However, your hair will typically start to re-grow around 4 months (3-5 months)Overall, about 5-10% risk for males. It is higher for females. It is also higher depending on how much hair you have.

Shock loss can occur anytime in the first year after a hair transplant. The best prevention is the drug finasteride (see video below)
