Hair transplantation simply extracts healthy, hair loss resistant follicles and implants them into regions of the scalp affected by androgenic alopecia (genetic hair loss). However, this treatment does nothing to stop the progressive miniaturization of the native follicles.
Because of this, hair restoration physicians normally advise patients to start a medication, like Propecia (finasteride) or Rogaine (minoxidil), to actually stabilize and potentially reverse some of the progressive hair loss in conjunction with the hair transplant surgery. This combination allows for both a complete restoration and ensures the hair transplant won't become inadequate or aesthetically awkward as the hair loss progresses. Additionally, in India, I recommend either Dr. Madhu or Dr. Radha. Good luck!

You should consider getting on propecia and minoxidil to STOP the hair falling out
and a hair transplant surgery to restore hair to the bald areas that cannot be saved from medication
