Dear friends,
I have what I believe is the worst shock loss in the history of hair transplants. (Okay, maybe I'm being a bit dramatic, but maybe I'm not.) I had the FUT procedure done. On the sides of my head, the shock loss is a good inch vertically and three inches diagonally, following the direction of the scar. For some reason, I have no shock loss in the back. But the sides are just horrendous. It is just bare, ugly skin. Really disgusting.
I've seen pictures of other people's shock loss and I'm honestly jealous, because theirs is nothing compared to mine.
Is it normal for the shock loss area around the donor zone to be completely hairless 9 weeks post-surgery? Is there any chance this could be permanent?
Mind you, I had my procedure done at Hasson & Wong. They're confident that it'll all grow back, but I'm freaking out here and not really feeling very convinced or optimistic.
Help!
Thanks.
