However, the anaesthetic process, combined with the surgery, can be perceived as a stressor by the body. This can disrupt the body&#8217;s natural balance, known as homeostasis, temporarily disrupting the nervous system and causing the body to produce higher levels of cortisol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Increased levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, can constrict blood vessels and reduce blood flow to the scalp. As a result, hair follicles may lack essential nutrients, causing hair growth to slow down or stop altogether. This process leads to what is called &#8220;shock loss&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-factors-contibuting-to-shock-loss\">Other Factors Contibuting to Shock Loss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While anaesthesia is a significant trigger, other factors may also lead to shock loss. It&#8217;s a complex biological process which can involve pre-existing conditions. Chronic illnesses such as diabetes and thyroid dysfunction can contribute to hormonal imbalances, which can further impact your hair&#8217;s natural growth cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-diet-and-medication\">Diet and Medication<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Hair needs nutrients to stay healthy. A diet that is too restrictive can deprive hair of the nutrients it needs. Lack of protein, vitamins, and minerals can weaken your hair and lead to hair loss. Without the nutrients they need, follicles can stop producing new hair, leading to temporary hair loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Blood thinners, blood pressure medications, and anti-depressants can also cause hair loss. If you are taking medication and notice that you are experiencing hair loss as a side effect, talk to your doctor to find a solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-the-difference-between-shedding-and-shock-loss\">What is the Difference Between Shedding and Shock Loss?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-post-surgical-shedding\">Post-Surgical Shedding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shedding typically begins 2\u20133 weeks after the transplant, but can happen at any time within the first 2-3 months post-surgery. This occurs as transplanted hair enters the resting (telogen) phase. This is a normal and temporary process that indicates the beginning of a new growth cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of hair loss is known as &#8220;telogen effluvium&#8221; and can last for up to 6 months. The hair is shed as part of the normal, healthy growth cycle, allowing the newly transplated grafts to produce regrowth. This is known as the anagen phase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Hair growth usually resumes within 3\u20134 months, with full results visible in 12\u201318 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-shock-loss\">Shock Loss<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shock loss, on the other hand, can occur shortly after the transplant. Unlike shedding, shock loss may affect existing hair near the transplant site. If excessive follicles are extracted or if the body reacts strongly to stress, higher volumes of cortisol are produced in the body. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each hair follicle has its own adrenal gland from which cortisol is secreted. The cortisol released by these glands can cause hair to fall out. The shock can be immediate or can occur a few days after the operation, leading to hair loss. As a result, the surrounding donor or transplanted areas may show thinning or bald patches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike shedding, shock loss can negatively effect the final results of your transplant, as grafts can be rejected by the body and the donor area might not grow back properly. If this occurs, it is essential to consult your clinic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reversing-hair-loss-after-surgery\">Reversing Hair Loss After Surgery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/elithair.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/hair-transplant-patient-dr-balwi.webp\" alt=\"Hair transplant patient posing with Elithair medical director Dr. Balwi.\" class=\"wp-image-90137\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elithair.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/hair-transplant-patient-dr-balwi.webp 1024w, https:\/\/elithair.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/hair-transplant-patient-dr-balwi-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/elithair.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/12\/hair-transplant-patient-dr-balwi-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While shock loss can be concerning, it is often reversible.
