The above statement is correct. My Doctor told me the grafts are pretty much in there by day 3.
nevertheless, I was told to wait two weeks before combing normally. After that, wash and scrub like before. Most of your grafted hairs are gonna fall out. This is normal. The roots are still OK.
I got my hair transplant in early Dec '04, and may be just starting to see a few sprouts. Very few.
4-6 months before any noticable growth is common. Not quite time to panic. Hang in there.
I got the procedure on a Wednesday and took Thursday and Friday off. Even by the following Monday, I still had very noticable scabs and redness. Worse, I couldn't wear a hat. Thank god I had enough hair to comb it over. I looked TERRIBLE, but at least it covered the graft area.
It was nine...
