You will have hair loss or shedding weeks after your surgery.  It can take up to 6 to 12 months to see results.  If you have concerns see your doctor for a follow up.

Jeff Donovan, MD, PhD · Answer

Yes, it is normal to shed hair from week 2 to week 8.If you have concerns about dandruff and other scalp issues be sure to speak to your transplant surgeon.

John Kahen, MD · Answer

This is completely normal. You can expect the transplanted hair to shed a month or two post op. You should begin to see regrowth around 3-4 months post-op.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

Your biggest enemy is the
progressive thinning leading to a balding pattern that is not evident at this
point in time. You should see a doctor who most likely will get Bulk
Measurements of your hair to determine the degree of the thinning that you are
presently having that your eye does not pick up. If the diagnosis is early
genetic hair loss, then the best treatment would be the drug finasteride which
is highly effective in men of your age and may not only stop the hair loss but
possibly reverse it. If you are developing a more advanced balding pattern the
best test to get will determine the Bulk Measurements of your hair and this
will show, over a one year time frame, how effective the treatment will be.
Once you know this information, then you and your doctor need to develop a
MASTER PLAN which will define what you need to do over the years to come.
