 I was wondering if  anyone had a lil more hairloss than usual after their TT surgery? I know after i had gastric bypass i did have more hairloss than usual but they said that was normal due to your bodys response to a major surgery! I moved to another state so i cant go back to my plastic surgeon to see i could go to my regular doctor but i just wanted to see first if anyone else noticed this? Thanks in advance

 I lost a ton of hair after my WLS, and was worried about the same thing.  My first round of plastics was extensive- a 7 hour surgery of LBL, BL/BA, and Arm Lift.  I had a MINOR bit of hair shedding from it at about 3 months in, but nothing like after my WLS.  Not even close.

 I'm waiting it out myself. I lost TONS with my lap band. I  would wash my hair and it would just fall out like crazy when I combed it. I would actually save it in ziplock sandwich baggies to show my doctor. It actually freaked out my hair lady, she told me to talk to my Dr about it. Now with PS I am 10 weeks and haven't had any yet. I wish I remembered what week I started loosing with my lap band. I'm thinking if I could go another month without loosing any I will be out of the woods. But if do start loosing I will definetly post it here.

Yup for me its after every surgery, about 6 months of shedding.  I kept my hair short for years because I couldnt stand seeing it on the floor.  I am growing it back finally after 3 surgeries in 4 years.

I have been really worried about that too..I lost a lot with my sleeve. I am almost 4 months out from my Tt and so far no hair loss...and hoping it stays that way

I had my TT almost 9 weeks ago and have not noticed any hair loss. I am a vegetarian and have "upped" my protein shakes and protein intake to help with the healing process so I am guessing that is why my hair has been fine.
