Hair Loss Sufferer Using Non Surgical Hair RestorationTreatments with Minimal Benefit Seeks Hair Transplant Surgery
2/4/2008 10:09:48 AM

In addition to both Propecia (finasteride) or 1/4 pill of Proscar and Rogaine (minoxidil), I wash my hair with Nizoral shampoo and spray Tricomin on nightly. My hair loss has slowed down, but is now very noticeable. What surgical options are available to me and what sort of results can I reasonably expect? Also will I continue to have to take both Rogaine and Propecia? Thanks. In my opinion, be sure to use at least Propecia and Rogaine for at least 6 months to a year before considering hair transplant surgery. This way, you will receive the greatest possible benefit from these non surgical hair loss drugs for hair loss wich will make strategic long term planning for hair transplantation more effective. Keep in mind that stopping either hair loss medication will result in a loss of its benefit. Therefore, if you are receiving benefit from Propecia, Rogaine, Nizoral, or Tricomin, you should at least consider continued use.

Is Transplanted Hair Permanent?

The reason why hair transplantation is often a viable option for those suffering androgenetic alopecia (genetic hair loss in the form of male pattern baldness - MPB or female pattern baldness - FPB) is because the transplanted hair is permanent.
