Got FUE 2000 Grafts transplant 13 days ago. Is too much hair falling out? I had 2000 grafts to restore thinning hair (Photo)

Surgery went great and the pain hasn't been bad at all since. On Day 10 I had to get a haircut to look normal again for my job the next day. They barely touched the recipient area though. I know hair is should fall out around 2 weeks following a procedure. My scalp still had tons of crust on it though, so I put argan oil on it last night. Today, the crust and hundreds of hairs connected to them (and by themselves) are falling out. It seemed crazy to have this much coming out. Is that normal?
