6 months after a hair transplant surgery, my scalp itches

May 17, 2018
Asked By:manchin in Skopje

I hit the 6th month mark after a hair transplant surgery and my scalp from time to time itches. However the results so far are really good and I am satisfied with the progress. Do you think that my hair is affected by something? I also contacted the clinic and they told me to drink more water as might the scalp be dry? Please let me know your opinion on this. Many thanks,

Jae Pak, MD says:

If you are having issues after your surgery, the best person to ask is your surgeon who knows the specifics of your surgery. Shock loss is always a risk and it is difficult to assess this on the Internet or with photos.  You need a before and after comparison. You need an examination.
