Right now I am almost 2 months post FUE. I have used a little vitamin e oil on my donor area. I was wondering if continuing vitamin e oil on my donor area, and also adding to my recipient area are recommended. Also what about using rogaine at this point? My doctor didn’t give me much aftercare last 15 days. Also I still have some slight redness (photos attached). Thank you for any help anyone can offer!

Answer: Vitamin E and Rogaine post transplant Redness, flaking and itching can occur from dryness. My guess is that if you are using vitamin E oil it won't be dry. In cases of dryness I reccomend trdeatment with Vitamin E or coconut oil. If you wish to use it, it won't hurt. As for the Rogaine you can continue to resume it. If you were on it before it will help the hairs that were there prior to the transplant but won't change anything with the transplanted hairs. You can also consider a PRP treatment! Hope that helps!

Answer: 2 months post op Hello, good question. I know you are frustrated and anxious about your results, but I don’t think you need to apply anything to either your donor or recipient area. All you really need to do it be patient and let your hair grow. You’ll need to be patient until about 8 months at which time you should see about 90% growth. Good luck to you.
