Senior Member ttaco Posted August 14, 2002 Senior Member Share Posted August 14, 2002 Is it necessary to discontinue the use of 5% Minoxodil before HT surgery? If so, how long should you not use it? I have heard differing answers on this. I use minox on my crown only, and am scheduled for surgery to have fu's put into my hairline. Thanks. Results of my 1424 FU transplant procedure on 8/16/02 can be viewed at... http://community.webshots.com/user/ttaco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 My doc instructs patients to discontinue use of Rogaine 7 days before surgery because it can contribute to excessive bleeding, which can compromise the healing of the grafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
