I am on the 11th day after my hair transplant, and I notice scabs coming off along with some hair. Is this normal, and will the hair grow back again?

After a hair transplant, seeing scabs come off around day 10-12 is completely normal. As the scalp heals, these small scabs naturally fall off, and it is common for some transplanted hairs to come out along with them. This can feel worrying, but it is usually part of the normal healing process. The important thing to understand is that only the hair shaft falls out, not the root. The transplanted hair follicles remain inside the scalp and enter a resting phase for some time. New hair growth usually starts again after a few weeks to months. You should continue your post-transplant care as advised by your doctor. Avoid picking or scratching the scalp, and be gentle while washing your hair. Initial shedding is expected, and regrowth is gradual, often becoming visible after 3-4 months. If you notice excessive redness, swelling, or signs of infection, consult your doctor.
