Hi, I would like to know whether I can have a hair transplant given the following circumstances: 1. For a traditional (head) hair transplant, would the use of Nizoral 2% shampoo and be a contraindication to the transplant? 2. I have a chin implant which extends along the jawline. Would it be a bad idea to have hair transplanted to the beard area as the procedure would involve working closely to the chin implant? Thanks
Answer: Beard transplant Greetings,The chin implant will not pose any problems for you with regard to a beard transplant. Generally speaking, all topical products should be discontinued for 3 weeks or so following a transplant. Good luck!

Answer: Beard transplant No contraindication at all. The depth of a beard transplant is significantly more superficial than the location of the chin implant, and in fact I have done similar cases as yours. As far as using Nizoral 2% shampoo, I would likely recommend that you not resume the use of this after the transplant for the first 3 weeks.

Answer: Hair transplant and chin implant None of the above conditions prohibits you from going forward with a successful beard transplant.Simply refrain from using the Nizoral shampoo for 3 weeks following the surgery.Hair follicles are placed just a few mm below the skin and pose no threat when the patient has chin implants.

Answer: It is safe! Chin implant is not a contraindication to beard transplant. Chin implant are fixed deep to the bone while beard transplant is located superficially. I would advice you to discuss this case with your hair transplant surgeon and follow the appropriate post care after beard transplantation.

Answer: Beard transplant after chin/jaw implants Chin/jaw implants are not a contraindication to having a beard hair transplant. Choosing a hair transplant surgeon who is familiar with chin/jaw implants ie a Plastic Surgeon might be advisable. You should always ask your hair transplant surgeon about post operative graft care and scalp hygiene including shampoos/conditioners as some doctors are very particular about what products can or can’t be used over certain timeframes.
