    Default shedding from around donor site 3 weeks post op

    HI everyone,

    just wanted to get some info, and reassurance (!?) about the shedding I've had around the donor site and when/if I should expect it to come back? I've read it happens through the initial scalp tightness post surgery but its still quite worrying everytime i touch my hair 1-5 hairs will fall out! I guess i'm now in the stage when it looks worse than ever, most of the scabs and small transplanted hairs have gone, plus the shedding! and have to wait for re-growth (hope it comes back!) plus growth of new hair. If anyone has experience of this your input would be most appreciated. have included one post op and current pic, had 1500 g strip method.
