I've heard thi can happen but I've seen plenty of pictures young people who've gotten hair transplants and even know someone personally who has gotten one and it turned out just fine. I'm serious and willing to take a chance about getting one if the results are good. Also my surgeon said he will use PRP after the transplant.

Answer: What are the odds of going bald after a hair transplant? This could refer to one of two issues. First, sometimes after surgery you have a temporary thinning of your native hair. This is called telogen effluvium, or more colloquially shock loss. This is relatively uncommon and resolves on its own. Also, after a transplant procedure it is still possible to keep losing native (non-transplanted) hair- having had a transplant has no effect on this. Whether or not you lose hair depends primarily on your genetics. Discuss with your surgeon options for maintenance such as finasteride (Propecia), laser and minoxidil (Rogaine) as well as further use of PRP to prevent further loss.

Answer: Hair transplant. Thank you for sharing the question. A hair transplant is a permanent process, in that the hair is taken in the donor-area which is of permanent growth zone; which means that this hair will not fall off ever. And the reason for that is this is the area that is relatively testosterone resistant. A hair taken from this region when transplanted in the recipient zone is not going to fall off since it doesn’t get affected by testosterone. So, please feel safe in going ahead with the transplant and you will be assured of a result which is not only perfect but also will last you a life-time. Regards, Dr. Amit Gupta
