Rahal Hair Transplant Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Jingo, Hair loss is progressive and we always anticipate that future hair loss will occur. To deal with this we will always recommend preventative medications such as Finasteride and Minoxidil. The question whether to transplant into those zones with existing hair will depend on the status and quality of those hairs. If the hairs are weak and miniaturized and their demise is imminent in the near future, then transplanting into those zones as a cushion is done. However, if the hairs are still strong and there is no immediate need, then we leave this area alone until the time (if and when) it is needed. Transplanting into those future hair loss zones does not prevent the hair from falling (that is controlled by the genetic makeup and medications). In fact in some cases damage and shock loss can be the side effect.
