I have a case of cutis vertis gyrata in the top of my scalp but still had a hair transplant on my temples. About a year ago my hair has thinned all over my scalp including the back and sides.. are there any other treatments that could thicken my hair at the sides and back.as I know further transplants are now not an option..also my CVG seems to make the problem look worse on top of my scalp is there any way to treat that too?
