Capillus 272 alone or with minoxidil? (Photo)

Question

I just got a 4000 graft fue but I'm disappointed I almost got nothing in the crown area. So now I'm contemplating other options such as the capillus 272 or using minoxidil. Is one better than the other or are they better when used together? Obviously I'd rather just use the capillus272 but if doctors think minoxidil will help then I will. Please help. Thank you

There is no need to take supplements or take medications after surgery.  Those things are just optional.   If you are concerned, consult with your doctor.

Hello.
I think that in addition to the cap, PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is one great option. This procedure consists on getting some of your blood and putting it in a machine that will separate the different ingredients that are in the blood. From those ingredients we take the growth factors and inject them in your scalp. These growth factors will start working in your follicles enhancing your hair and reducing (and even stopping) the rate of your hair loss. If your follicles have not been dormant for too long the hair can regrow. We are here to help you look and feel good.  Best of lucks!

Effectivity of capillus or other devices of LLLT are not scientifically proven yet. minoxidil use is more logical for vertex or you may have a second FUE surgery 6-7 months later .

minoxidil has been proven to get some regrowth in the crown. It is a good option. You can also consider having a 2nd procedure for your crown.

I recommend you use both- recommend the Capillus RX as well.  Consider finasteride as well.   Multipronged approach.  PRP also helps.
