I’m two weeks post op and I’m almost positive that I haven’t lost a single transplanted hair yet. I’m hoping that these little guys are going to stay in my head and continue to grow out with the rest of my hair. Is it possible to that the shedding stage can be avoided sometimes and the transplants grow out? If shedding is inevitable I’d like to speed up the process. Would it be beneficial to pluck the small guys so they can start their regret stage sooner? Thanks again for all your help!

The transplanted grafts often stay in for 2-4 weeks. If they grow past 3/8 inch and keep on growing, they will most likely stay. That happens in about 5% of patients. Leave them alone, ignore them and just wait it out.
