Hi, my name is Leonardo, im portuguese. I ve done a FUE in February and im a little worry because a lot of the scabs have not fallen yet.I alvo have dry and white skin at almost 3 months. Maybe i was a little too much careful while washing my hair, i don t know. Anyway, i want to ask if this is a lost graft or is just the shaft. Thank you.

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