Will taking co-codamol affect my hair transplant results?

Asked By:cja123321 in Cambridge, GB

Hi I am 6 days post FUT surgery and I was given painkillers by the clinic which I have had but I have been taking my own co codamol 30/500 which helps with my severe back pain I suffer from. My head does not hurt only by back which was a pre existing issue. Many clinics offer co codamol but in this stronger dose of which I have 2pills twice a day so 4 pills in total .. will it be negative to my results ??

Ali Emre Karadeniz, MD says:

The burn must be deep in order to kill all hair follicles in the area. If it was that deep, then it is likely that you would have needed a surgical intervention to repair the burnt area. If it healed spontaneously without significant scarring, then there still may be a chance that hair grows...
