Would the use of cocaine once four months after a fue Hair Transplant have a big affect on the final result

Question

I did something very stupid and snorted two lines of cocaine 4 months after my FUE Hair Transplant, it was the first time in a number of years and I will not do it again. I have had some growth but now I'm really concerned I will really affect the final result. I know it was totally wrong but do you think I should be okay regarding the result ? I guess there will be an impact but I just hope it is minimal.

If you are concerned about your cocaine use and your hair transplant, you need to follow up with your doctor.

Sean Behnam, MD · Answer

At four months your transplants are essentially just as strong and resistant to damage as your normal hairs. Nothing you do at this point could really do significant damage to your them, barring severe trauma. But there are a variety of other reasons that I recommend against any sort of cocaine use.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

At 4 months post hair transplant you are normal. You can do whatever you want and I doubt it will damage your transplants, and that includes cocaine. I am not recommending that you take cocaine, in case I just confused you.
