I Scratched My Fresh Transplant Area While I Slept! – Hair Loss Information – Balding Blog

hello doctors,

im 21 yo this year and had my hair transplant 3 days ago. when i was sleeping last night, i accidentally scratched the area where it was transplanted and soon it started to bleed, i went to check in the mirror, and noticed significant blood and a single hair was dislodged on my forehead. i just want to know if there were more then just one hair graft dislodged? as i have checked and seems that theres only 1 hair graft that is missing. will it affect other hair graft too?

I remember a patient who had 3 transplants and seemed to love to scratch his head while he was sleeping. He lost some grafts (as did you). I told him to wear a boxing glove, which seemed to stop the late night scratching as he fought with himself at night.
