Jae Pak, MD · Answer

If you are concerned please follow up with your doctor for an exam.
You will have hair loss after surgery. You may have graft loss after surgery. Not all the grafts will take.  You won't really know until you see results in 6 to 12 months

Tim Neavin, MD · Answer

Everyone goes through the phases of hair loss and hair growth at different rates after a hair transplantation.  Without knowing any more than you offered, I'd say it's probably normal.  However, if you have any concerns about your transplant you should follow up with your doc.

Roy A. David, MD · Answer

If hairs with crust are falling out, you may be washing too aggressively. It may take up to two weeks after hair transplant for the grafts to be completely healed and safe.

Grant Stevens, MD · Answer

It is normal at different stages along the way to notice some hair being shed, especially during washing.  Make sure you are following the directions you received regarding washing and care of the grafted hair and the entire area.  Follow up with the surgeon that performed your procedure to make sure everything is going according to plan. Good luck.

Rashid M. Rashid, PhD, MD · Answer

This depends on when the transplant was done and how it was done. You should contact your doctor.  It can be normal if it has been a few days form the restoration.  Also, it is important that you are washing and caring for your scalp according to the instructions.
