Hi Dr. Rassman
Is there any risk of shedding phenomenon after FUE procedure at donor site(most of which is occipital area)?
You will likely not shed from the donor area, but I suppose there is a small risk with any surgery done on the scalp. The mechanism will be the same that causes a telogen effluvium from almost any stressful event. I am curious as to what is driving the question. Has something happened to you as a result of an FUE?
