6 weeks post beard transplant - skin redness / discolouration. I don't have access to my surgeon so need answers here (Photo)

masterblaster189Nov 15, 2016
Its been exact 6 weeks since I had FUE beard transplant with 1500 grafts. Loss about 50% hair in shedding process (rest survived) and didnt expose myself to sunlight much in the first 5 weeks. After that went carefree to some extent and started walking in direct sun for like 5 mins at a time 2-3 times a day (not purposely but had to) and now I see few grafts less and slight discolouration / redness as seen in the pic. Pls help me fix this as I am very consious about this and tell me what is it.

The cost of hair transplant surgery differs from doctor to doctor / from clinic to clinic.  It is best you see different doctors.  It may be a few hundred to a few thousand dollars.  There may also be a minimum fee associate with surgery.

You first need to establish the cause for your hair loss. If you have genetic malenpatren hair loss with good donor zone then you may be a canadidate for hair transplant. It is best to see a hair loss specialist first.

You can theoretically harvest donor hair from your pubic area for a facial hair transplant.  It is unclear why your hair is turning blond.
