Botox Impact on Growing Grafts

[Rahal_UK_Patient]

Hi, I'm 5 months post op with good hair growth. My question is, if I get botox injections in my forehead, will it impact my hair growth? I don't mean positively, rather could it have a detrimental impact?

Any help appreciated, thanks.

The only one that can answer this is your doc, and even then there is a paucity of data on this issue. You would be a test subject.

It will not alter your hair results if done correctly by an experienced doctor. Meaning don't let someone who isn't experienced mix up something that might not be botox and inject it in your hairline.

 

The fellow on our table right now, had botox by me 2 weeks ago, and will be back for more in 3.5 months. It will not alter his hair result.

Dr. Paul Shapiro has administers botox to some of our ht patients in the forehead and he's never encountered any adverse growth from it.

Many thanks. I appreciate you all taking the time to answer my question. I've decided to delay any decision into the new year, but, it seems there will be no issues should I decide to proceed. Thanks again.
