After 5 months fue surgery, i had a pretty good growth and i was really satisfied. But after sometime, instead of getting more density, i found that i was losing some and going backwards. now at the eight months mark, i feel i have lesser density than i had at 5 months. Is it because of minoxidil and finasteride and other products to lower dht that i use resulting in erratic growth phase of my fue transplanted hair? or is it something serious i should be concerned about? thanks

Answer: Varying growth patterns. My advice would be not to jump to any conclusions until you are around 18 months post hair transplant. Until this point the hair growth can be dynamic following a hair transplant (although after 12 months in my experience things tend to be stable). Various factors may be playing a part for example your use of finasteride and the topical minoxidil. Also, there may be other environmental factors that cause an issue, such as stress. The early growth you noticed at 5 months may have coincided with the commencement of finasteride at the time of your hair transplant (as many clients tend to start this medication at the same time as the procedure). I would not be too concerned at this point but would certainly recommend following up with you hair restoration surgeon. All the best.

Answer: Shock loss Sometimes patients loses surrounding hair that is called shock loss. For this it usually takes time to grow back. I recommend that you schedule a post op with you surgeon to go over these concerns. If you are using Riga one or finasteride, I would continue until you talk to your surgeon.
