Asked By:sjh82 in London, GB

Hi, I'm really worried - I had FUE 3250 grafts 3 weeks ago and it looks like most of the hair I had before has fallen out. 2 previous transplants, on propecia for around 8 years and use minoxidil every day. Does this look normal and will it grow back?! You can see photos before transplant. Maybe it looks worse because it's so short, just worried that I look bald again!

Answer: It is normal to lose transplanted hairs weeks after surgery. It may take 6 to 12 months to see new hairs grow out.
