It's been 12 days since i had my hair transplant in Istanbul. The doctor told me to remove the scabs after ten days with baby shampoo. So at the tenth day i tried to remove the scabs by pressing gently on the scalp, however the scabs would not get off so i applied a little bit more force. my concern is that i saw quite a lot scabs that looked like a graft with hair bulb. is it possible that i accidentally removed some grafts, or is it just an early shock loss?

Answer: Anything is possible. It probably is not likely but if you are concerned it is best to contact your doctor
Yes-circular incisions(like those from FUE) do heal by contraction.Additionally as the hair begins to grow back it diminishes the appearance of the harvest sites.
