Will transplanted hair regrow 6 months post op if pulled out?

doncole
A spot appeared on my head 6 months post op in the recipient area. I placed a heated flannel to bring it out as instructed by my doctor. Whilst applying monoxidil I touched the spot; I felt no pain. Unfortunately, it bled more than expected. I stopped the bleeding and it scabbed over. The scab recently dislodged whilst combing my hair; there was no bleeding, but 4 hairs came out with the scab
