Hello! You will always want to meet with your own hair transplant physician to discuss your individual needs, but in our practice we would candidate you for a hair transplant procedure. In our practice, we help patients who have hair line irregularities or who would like to simply lower their hairline. These patients can be experiencing genetic hair loss throughout as well(or not). A hair transplant will not change the direction of the cowlick but it can certainly fill in and straighten the hair around it. I would also suggest using Rogaine, laser light therapy or even considering PRP injections. These additions may help to restore to more normal density the "baby hairs" you mentioned above.
Hello, you should always consult with your own hair transplant physician, but in our practice we suggest to start holding on to your native hair as soon as possible. Androgenic alopecia is progressive which means once it starts it will not stop without some sort of intervention. The 4 main recommended medical solutions to male pattern balding are: Laser therapy, PRP ,Minoxidil 5%, Finasteride( Propecia) prescription. Any areas that you have already had receding or hairloss can be filled with a permanent hair transplant. The number of treatments and grafts depends on what you are wanting to accomplish. I think meeting with your physician is the best option to receive accurate information.
You should always consult your own hair transplant physician, but in our practice we would say it is both. PRP treats continued hair loss and it can help to prevent future hair loss. PRP is the only proven medical therapy that can restore a percentage of formally dormant hair follicles to help regrow hair. After the jump start of regrowth you would need to maintain those results with continued medical therapy such as Minoxidil, laser therapy or more PRP treatments.
Hello, Thank you so much for your question. I am sorry this happened to you. You should always consult your transplant staff and surgeon with any questions or concerns. In our practice, we would advise our patient that by day 8 the grafts are secured in the location on the scalp. Since there was not any bleeding I would suspect everything is fine. Best of luck to you!
