i have done FUE and completed almost 5 months, I can feel the new growth, but just wanted to know,how long it takes for complete growth, yesterday i saw few hairs falling down, is it normal after 5 months? Also i have started using "Caboki-Hair concealer"( kind of black powder, which i am putting on my thin areas, so that i can hide my thin areas, is this safe? does it stops or destroys my transplanted hairs or roots. Thank you

Answer: Caboki or Toppik Microfiber after FUE Hair Surgery
These problems must be evaluated by your doctor. This does not sound like a normal post operative course and only your doctor just judge if these symptoms are significant problems.
Just based on the photo there is no reason to think that you are not a candidate for hair restoration procedures. You are also a candidate for other medical options to restore your hair such as minoxidil and Finasteride. You should visit with a hair restoration surgeon for an evaluation. At...
I would recommend a followup with your doctor as this is not normal. You should stop using rogaine as sometimes patients can have an allergic reaction and anything else that you are applying to your scalp. Washing the area gently with baby shampoo can help as well.
