Asked By:NYCGirl30493 in New York, NY

1,100 grafts placed between both temples and front of hairline. 2 months postop I started to get some large, puss-filled pimples on scalp, a few of them had little hairs come out when I popped them. A week later I noticed baby hairs starting to grow in from the transplants. Starting two weeks ago, my hair has been falling out like crazy, I checked transplanted areas and now the hair surrounding the transplants is WAY thinner and looks like Im balding. Its worse than it ever was! whats going on?
