Can FUE hair transplant can be removed with epilation?

jktlvDec 24, 2017
Hi, I had fue hair transplant 3 months ago. I think I made a mistake and I want to remove it. Does epilation is a good way? Should I do it when the hair start growing before it becomes thick? Thanks

If you are losing hair and would like treatment options, it is best to see a doctor for an examination to understand why you are losing hair.

If the water temperature was hot enough to scald your skin or burn your skin then it may be an issue.  Otherwise it should not be an issue.

It is very difficult to correct a bad hair line after you had your surgery.  The only way may be to reshape your hairline LOWER than the existing hair line.

Cold temperature is not "dangerous" after a hair transplant surgery. Unless it is so cold that other parts of your body is impacted.

It may take six to twelve months to appreciate the results of a hair transplant surgery.  If you are concerned it is best to contact your doctor and ask for the exact count of grafts you received.

It is best to contact your doctor about PRE operative care and instructions since each doctor has a different regimen.It would be wise to have a clean hair/ clean scalp before surgery.
