Scratching Out FUE Grafts a Month After Surgery?

Hi Dr. Rassman,

I’ve had a hair transplant a month ago. Is it still possible for me to scratch my implanted FUE out?

Thank you

I would usually say no, but I have seen some strange results and methods of hair transplants over the years. Not all FUE (follicular unit extraction) is the same and not all hair transplants are the same. If you are able to pull out a graft one month after surgery, then it was never going to grow anyways. Under most circumstances though, the graft has already taken hold by then.
