Hi, I've looked into hair transplant extensively and spoken to a few clinics and dr's at length, but has anyone done a successful procedure for a patient on immunosuppressive medication ie I'm currently taking 10mg methotrexate weekly & humira. Not sure if this would affect the success of a HT/ growth? Only methotrexate is supposed to cause hair loss. Humira not so. An option is I could stop the metho for 3 months post op.
