Will transplanted hair that was epilated grow back?

January 5, 2018
Asked By:DavidRozy in Houston, TX

I had a hair transplant back in 2006; one day I decided to use an epilator to remove the transplanted hair because I wasn't happy with it. Will this transplanted hair which was epilated grow back? I only epilated once two weeks ago. Thanks.

Answer: It is very difficult to undo a bad hair transplant result. It is very difficult to kill the hairs that grew out.

Will taking Cialis 6 days before FUE procedure. Will that affect me in any way or will there be blood clotting?
Cory Torgerson, MD, PhD, FRCSC - Account Suspended says:

The best option is to always be honest with your doctor. In this case they would have most likely told you that it was nothing to be concerned about and highly unlikely that they would cancel your surgery and keep your deposit because of you being honest with them.
