How long before you can get a hair transplant after a lateral brow lift and mini facelift?

Question

I had a lateral brow lift and mini facelift 2 months ago, and now I'm interested in having a hair transplant. How long should I wait I have a hair transplant after lateral brow lift and mini facelift surgery?

Matt Tahsini, MD · Answer

Hello and thank you for your question. I would suggest you wait at least a year before you have a hair transplant after your latest procedures.  Your latest procedure could cause shock loss of hair along your hairline.  In your case, I think it's best to be more conservative and wait a year. Best of luck to you.

Hello I'm Dr. Wipawan Vathananai, a co-worker of Dr. Kulakarn Amonpattana, from BHI Clinic, Bangkok, Thailand. I would recommend you to wait at least 12 months after brow lift or facelift surgery because these surgeries can cause shock loss of the hair along the hairline for a while. The hair should recover from shock loss around 6-12 months after these surgeries.
