Senior Member Thehairupthere Posted January 24, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted January 24, 2011 What you are experiencing is shock loss. If the native hair that has shed was considered healthy prior to surgery than the likelihood of it surviving is high, but if the hair was miniaturized and unhealthy than it may not return, but usually the surgeon will more than compensate for the shock loss once everything is grown in properly. Shock loss for most people usually lasts from 3-6 months but it can be longer in some cases. I am a consultant for Dr. True and Dr. Dorin. These opinions are my own.

Senior Member RCWest Posted January 24, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted January 24, 2011 is their a way to flight the shock loss and save my hair????????????? It's been claimed that Finasteride can help protect against shock loss. It's been stated many times on Hair Loss Information - Balding Blog. Finasteride 1.25 mg. daily Avodart 0.5 mg. daily Spironolactone 50 mg twice daily 5 mg. oral Minoxidil twice daily Biotin 1000 mcg daily Multi Vitamin daily Damn, with all the stuff you put in your hair are you like a negative NW1?
