Shock loss

Hello I’m doing great thanks.

It would probably be better if you started your own thread on your concerns over your shockloss as I think you’ll get more people’s opinions reply’s.

In my experience shockloss can last up 6 months. I never had shockloss in my donor region though only the recipient site,some of my native hair never returned as it was on its way out anyway and I wasn’t taking DHT blockers like Fin.
To me it looks like your donor hair has been over harvested but I do think you need to give it more time as 2 months is way too early I would wait definitely 6 months.
Are you taking Finasteride and which clinic did you go to?
All the best Don.
Hello Don!

Thank you for you're response.

As per the photos that I have posted you can see at the beginning & after few days of photos I don't have patch on my back of my head but this started I think after 2weeks.

And I am using minoxidil once a day. I did my hair treatment from Turkey (smile hair clinic)

Hello there. Hope you doing well.
Posting this after reading comments & really concerned about my shock hair loss on my doner area back of my head on my left hand side.

Its been 2months & on my doner area hair hasn't come back yet & I am applying minoxidil daily twice & its really concerning to me & I'm really embarrassed to out. Please do you know how many months it takes to regrow the hair on doner hair? I send the message to my clinic which is in Turkey & the clinic ask me not to worried. As per clinic it'll take up to 6months to hair regrow on my doner area.

How many months it take for you to regrow hair on doner hair? Would be much appreciated if you reply & post the photos of hair shock loss on doner area before & after. See my hair before & after hair shock loss on doner area.

Thank you

It could be severe shock loss. Do you have any photos of the extraction you could share? Keep us updated

Hello Max, I don't actually but as you can see in the photos that neither the drafts over extraction because there wasn't any gaps in my back of my head after hair treatment.

Hi Don, your hair looks good, especially when you look back at your staring point. It is a massive improvement.

Shockloss of existing hair
Anyone had experience of shockloss to existing hairs around the transplanted hair area?
Had a lot of hair in that area but now there gone.
Roll on the growth phase

Thanks Bri yes when you look at where I started it’s a big improvement given my hair texture very fine it’s been a long journey though.
Hopefully the fin which I take 3x per week can keep it into the future,I stopped the oral minoxidil as I didn’t see any improvement and didn’t want to waste my money.

I think the Finasteride was and still is working good for you.
I understand giving up on the Oral Minoxidil when you don't see any difference.
And, you have one of the best FUT scars I've seen.
