Hair That Does Not Grow Again After Shock Shedding

Although the hair transplantation process is performed as precisely as possible, newly transplanted follicles may go through a process called ‘shock shedding’. Because when the delicate follicles are removed from the scalp and transplanted to another location, the scalp experiences a ‘shock’-like trauma. This is completely normal and affects women more than men. Shock shedding is the process of shedding the newly transplanted hair within a week or two.

 

You may panic when you see that your new hair, which you have been patiently waiting for hours to be planted, begins to fall out. However, with minor exceptions, new hairs will grow in a few months and they will be permanent.

 

It’s very rare for new hair to not grow after shock shedding, but if you’re concerned, make an appointment to see your doctor again.
