Hi! I just want to ask why is my donor area's hairs still not growing back? I saw a lot of dead spots and most of the hair are thin from that area as you can see in the pictures. Is it still in state of shock loss or Im just a slow healer? Or a case of over havesting from that area? Because most of the transplanted hair are came from that area.
