Hi Doctors. 3 weeks ago I just done FUE HT, 3500 Graft to cover front area. And My Surgeon recommend me to use Minoxidil 5% and Finasteride 1 Month after FUE HT to make hair more thicker. But what I concern is I have to use both medicine for entire of my life. Since my hair is not so thin, and its fine, but not so thick. Since I am Model, so he recommend me these 2 medicine to make more thicker. But what if I stop taking it, I will lose more hair?

It may take 8-12 months before seeing the final results of your hair transplant surgery. If you are concerned with the density and shape, follow up with your surgeon for an exam.
