After the surgery I noticed my hair was coming out . It's getting really thin and becoming a problem. Is there any way to reverse this ?
Answer: Hair loss after plastic surgery Great question, and I'm sorry for your circumstance. Hair loss in the area of incisions may or may not recover. If it is a more diffuse hair shedding, it could be stress/shock response of the hair follicles. This should recover in several months. Topical treatments, such as minoxidil or PRP, may help expedite the recovery. It may be wise to speak with a surgeon who is experienced in hair restoration. Best of luck!

Answer: Hair loss after facelifting Thanks for asking. The surrounding hair follicles may go into a shock and fall out or thin out. This is temporary and eventually will comeback to its pre-surgical state. You may want to explore supplements that can help with hair growth. Best of luck!

Answer: Hair Loss After Facelift It can be common for some hair loss after a surgical procedure like a facelift. This should resolve over the next several weeks. If it persists, I recommend following up with a hair loss expert. I hope this helps.

Answer: Hair loss after facelift and brow lift Some hair loss is seen every now and then with the brow lift and facelift. It is usually temporary and due to either stress on the hair follicle or an actual injury to the hair follicle from the scalpel during the incision or when using electrocautery close to the skin. In cases where the hair follicles have been permanently injured, which is rare, there are options. Neograft hair transplant is the treatment of choice for our practice to provide hair to areas of hair loss or alopecia. I want to encourage you to be patient b/c hairs will go through cycles that consist of growth, rest, and death. They then repeat this cycle so you must be patient for weeks to months to see if the hairs will return to the growth phase
