Question

I had FUE surgery 6 months ago from 4th months my hairs fall stared again in large scale , i hear from my friend that homeopathic medicine (R89) is very effective , can i use it with allopathic biotin capsules?

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

Specific medical treatment issues should be discussed with your doctor especially if you are not sure how to use the medication.

Parsa Mohebi, MD, FISHRS · Answer

Shock loss can attribute to hair loss after hair transplantation. I would recommend use of medical treatment such as propecia. Allpathic biotin may or may not make a difference in results. I would discuss this in your upcoming follow up with your transplant surgeon.

There is no harm in taking the allopathic biotin although it may not make a difference in hair regrowth. I would discuss this with the surgeon who operated on you and see what they recommend. Good luck!

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

Loss of native hair after a hair transplant reflects something we call shock loss. This can be prevented by the use of finasteride. I don't believe homeopathic approaches have been proven to work
