I've always had a widow's peak. I would like to fill in the widow's peak over time using the FUE method.

CookiecookieMar 14, 2016
I'm a Women 20 years old. Will the fue make the current hair in the widows peak fall out? I want to shave the smallest area possible and then repeat the procedure and improve my hairline over time,rather then shaving a large area.

Finasteride is a drug you take for male pattern hair loss. Saw palmetto is not a drug and it does not work like finasteride.  Speak to your doctor for better clarification.

Thank you for your question, Abd. It depends on the ingredients of the supplement. It is best for you to consult with the board certified facial plastic surgeon performing your transplant.Best wishes,

Totally normal.  I would be more concerned if you didn't have swelling.  Give it a week and it will go away.  Generally, it will settle with gravity's help.  So, try to position yourself accordingly.  Regards, Doc Gio

The best thing you can do is to wash the grafts post hair transplant.  I wouldnt spend too much money or time on any kind of sprays or solutions.  Just a simple routine simple wash per your doctors instructions should be just fine.

FUE do not work well on African American patients. You would also have to shave your head.  Don't trust doctors only because they are on this webstite.  Meet the doctors in person an then form your opinion.

You can apply lotion but it is best to ask your surgeon if you have concerns.  Many doctors have their own specific post operative care.
