Continued Thinning After a Hair Transplant
I’m thinking about a hair transplant procedure, but had some reservations about what happened if one continued to lose hair. The transplanted hair is supposed to permanent, so what happens to the rest of the hair on the crown if you get hair transplanted to the front hairline area? Does it stay and the rest of it go?
Assuming you are a male, have genetic hair loss, and you are taking Propecia (finasteride), then the hair loss should stabilize so that as you add transplanted hair you are gaining, not losing hair. Hair loss is a progressive process, arrested by finasteride in most men. Hair transplants in the front will frame your face and finasteride for the crown should stabilize or reverse the hair loss. Get you scalp mapped out for miniaturization to be sure of the diagnosis and then you can get a transplant if that is part of your Master Plan.
