Regular Member ak89 Posted May 25, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted May 25, 2013 Hi, Wanted to know when can shock loss occur. Can it occur just after the surgery or will it happen after a few weeks? I had a transplant 8 days back and can hardly see any old hair coming out. The doctor had shaved my recipient area. Thanks Ak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member augustya Posted May 25, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 25, 2013 Shock Loss is a possibility which may or may ot happen, depending on a lot of factors. Skill of Doctor, Equipments like Punch, Magnification, Light and other supportive mechanism which are used for a successful HT. There is no general theory if didn't happen with you it will not happen to others and vice-a-versa ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member ak89 Posted May 25, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 25, 2013 Yes I understand that shock loss may or may not occur. My question was different. If it does occur then when does it occur? Can it occur just after the surgery or does it occur after 2-3 weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hairshopeing Posted May 25, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 25, 2013 Mine was about 3 weeks ish after in the donor from fue!! Quite a lot!! Havnt worried about it though, should grow back as the donor hairs won't be miniaturised, hopefully the recip hasn't been to affected hard to tell as I keep shaving down to 1 guard!!

Regular Member Airbumps Posted May 26, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted May 26, 2013 I started to get it in the recipient area about 2.5 weeks post op. Up until then almost nothing fell out. At that point it stated pouring out. I was getting heaps each night in the shower. I'm 4.5 weeks out now and its starting to slow down. Different for everybody I guess, but for most i think it usually occurs 2-4 weeks post op. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
