What to do when hair loss continues
after a hair restoration?
In most top
hair restoration clinics worldwide patients are advised to combine anti hairloss products such as Finasteride - Keratene Retard – Dutasteride along with or
even before a hair transplant procedure. These products may not increase the optical hair situation, but they will halt or slow down further hair loss for most.
The risk of not using anti
hair loss products when considering a hair transplant
First of
all there are no physical or health risks associated for patients that do not
want to use anti hair loss products. However as you can see in the example
below hair loss continued behind the transplanted hairline, creating an
unnatural looking gap.
