Hi, am new hear and was hoping to ask you guys some questions!
So I went through with an FUE 3 weeks ago, 1600 grafts/4000 hairs, here are some photos.
Before:
Right after:
Now as you can see from the first photo, I didnt really have any hair loss near the back/crown when I went in for the operation, but within 3 weeks my hair has become noticeably thinner at the back/crown.... see below:
Obviously this area was left untouched during the transplant and I seem to remember it looked fine before, but now it is thinner, the only thing I can think off is that I stopped using Nizoral shampoo mixed with nioxin for the last 3 weeks due to them wanting me to use their own special mild shampoo and me not wanting to irritate the transplanted grafts with nizoral/nioxin too soon.
Could this really have meant that the nizoral/nioxin was keeping the hair there alive at the back there all this time and now that I have stopped using it for 3 weeks it has fallen out?!
Also on top of this I have been left with 2 bumps that are between the eyebrows and above the nose, it is the exact place where the surgeon stuck the anesthetic needle in, they arent super visible but i can feel the bumps there still after 3 weeks, is this normal? See below:
Thanks for any advice guys!
