Propecia and Body Hair (with Photos of Hair Transplant)

This patient had a very nice result from one hair transplant procedure. An interesting item to me was that he reported that when he started to take Propecia, the hair from his chest and back (which was very heavy) returned to his barely hairy 18 year old body’s hairless appearance. In addition, he also reported a reduction of nose and ear hair. So this patient shows not only the benefits of a good hair transplant, but also a rare but good side effect of Propecia (I have rarely seen been made aware of this loss of body hair). I only have photos of his head, as I didn’t think people needed to see photos of the inside of his nose or ears (and so I didn’t take any).

And this set shows his results after one hair transplant procedure of 2,073 grafts.
