Black Scabs Months After Hair Transplant – Hair Loss Information by Dr. William Rassman

2 very important questions:

It’s been 6 months after my hair transplant and I have seen good results but I am still looking for further improvement in my hair as expected. Will there be more improvement coming in the next 2 or 3 months or I have already got my results and there won’t be any further new hair growth?

Another question is that I just noticed that I still have black scabs with a hair growing on the top of it and it just fell in my hand with the scab and the hair stuck to each other. These scabs where in hundreds after the hair transplant which is normal. But is this normal after 5 months of hair transplant?

thanks

By the 8th month, you will have >80% of hair growth. By 1 year, you will have >95% hair growth. If there were hairs in the scabs, I do not understand it — they should not be there. Maybe you are not really telling me what you see properly, for anything that lasts after 5 months may reflect the old grafts that did not shed. Perhaps you may have further hair shedding in preparation for further hair growth? Try washing it more vigorously and see if that makes the scabs fall off. You might consider sending me good digital pictures to the address on the contact page.
