FUE hair transplant after brain aneurysm coiling surgery.

I'm a 33-year-old female & want to get a hair transplant on my hairline. However, 6 months ago I had a subarachnoid hemorrhage from a ruptured brain aneurysm. It was surgically treated by endovascular coiling from my groin to my brain. I recovered & don't have any neurological damage & can go back to my normal life. My neurologist approved a hair transplant, however, some clinics have refused to do it on me due to my health history. Is a hair transplant safe for me or not?

You are experiencing hair shock loss from the trauma of hair transplant surgery. At this moment, it is best to take Finasteride and apply Rogaine to slow down the shock loss. It might 6 months or more to slow down the hair loss.
