Question

Emrah Cinik, MD · Answer

The substances that causes addiction shouldnt be in use during the healing period. Especially after the first week of your transplant.

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

Asking doctors on the Internet if using cocaine would be "OK" to use because you have a special occasion is not the best judgement call.

Ben Talei, MD · Answer

There is no relation in between the use of cocaine and a FUE hair transplant. No evidence shows that this will alter the results. Be safe.

Cory Torgerson, MD, PhD, FRCSC - Account Suspended · Answer

There is nothing that would suggest that cocaine use would affect your hair loss and growth. So as far as your hair is concerned, you should be alright.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

There is no data that relates cocaine use and the growth of the recipient grafts after a hair transplant to answer your question properly
