Getting Shock Loss on Sides of My Donor Scar
At 4 weeks post op i have significant shock loss on the donor area primarily just behind each ear where the loss is. Not so bad in middle but still some. Is it normal for more loss behind the ears and will it grow back?? Is that area more prone to shock loss than the middle of the back of the head.
Thanks
Sometimes the donor area can experience hair loss from the stress and/or tension from the surgery. Unlike the shock loss in the recipient area, the hair loss in the donor area should grow back in a few months to a year. I would follow up with your surgeon and have him/her further evaluate it.
