I have undergone an FUE procedure of 3500 grafts. Its been 10 days now and my has began to grow a little. Im am noticing a rectangle shape in my donor area that has very thin hair. I am extremely worried that this will be permennant. My surgeon informed me that it would even out in about 4 months but Im not convinced. My question is this normal? If not is there a way that i could have a procedure to transplant hairs into the bald patches? (I don't want to do micropigmentation)
Answer: Donor Zone Depleted The only way to tell is to wait about 2-3 months. But in general, your donor zone looks very depleted and looks like there is a possibility it may be permanent. Unfortunately this is the risk taken with FUE, especially when it is done by an unqualified clinic/doctor. Fixing this by transplanting grafts into the depleted areas is possible but extremely difficult and labor intensive. In the last year I have started to correct a lot of procedures such as yours by transplanting grafts into the depleted donor zone with hair taken from the beard or chest as well as micro pigmentation. I would recommend finding a skilled surgeon in your area that could help you.
