I followed the instructions as best I could but I did bled quite a bit. I was wondering How does that affect the transplant? Can the blood push out the graphs? Can the blood help the graphs? I know it takes the surgeon longer and the graphs are out of the body longer which arnt good. Anybody have any thoughts?

Thin,
Are you talking about during the transplant or days following? There is a big difference between then. If you are still experiencing bleeding today, contact your physician immediately. A lot of blood during the hair transplant may have made the surgery more difficult for the physician during surgery, but if he didn't mention a problem of "popping" and everything looked good on your way out, you should be just fine.

No bleeding afterwards just during the procedure. It just seams that putting a graph into a slit that is bloody might result in the graph slipping out. If the slit had no blood or minimal blood it seams it would hold the graph more firmly in place? I dont know but couldn't help but think of that.

I had read about the procedure from my doc's "what to expect" sheet, and I remember it said that blood actually helps hold the grafts in place, and acts as a glue. Now, I don't know how much is too much, though..

ThininHouston,
The bleeding was only an issue during the surgery. Your procedure was completed in a reasonable time but could have been completed a bit sooner.In my experience, bleeders also metabolize the local anesthesia faster. It is nice to do one procedure per day, so when the unexpected occurs, we have all our time and attention to focus on our patient that day. |

I bled a lot during mine and it did not affect the HT. Don't worry.
