Hair transplant long term results with and without medication

[Jim1973]

Its nice to see so many people posting positive outcomes on these platforms. However, it seems most cases are patients who only started medication (such as Fin or Dut), either just before or just after their procedure. Some of their success is undoubtably attributed to the medication, not just the transplant, which makes it more challenging when determining if the results are from a fantastic doctor/clinic or if they are great responders to medication. I don’t understand why some men don’t get on the medication at least a year or two prior to their surgery to see how well they respond before their procedure.

A lot of people do take the meds way before they opt for a hair transplant. Clinics will often recommend this is the first option they should try.

Hi, most need medication before HT. However, some folks do not need meds.Like myself. Age 44 and NW2. On PRP since 9 years, hair is stable.It is casa boy case basis. Before HT hair should be relatively stable
