Hi Guys,

 

Just wanted to know, so I am 4 Months post my hair transplant I have been applying Minoxidil since last 3 months, initially I started with 2% and then scaled up to 5%. I do use the 5% these days. But I had a bottle left of 2% left with me so I thought of using it, So I applied it on my transplanted area. Never has it happened before, for the first few days till I was using it before I switched on to 5% but today when I applied it, I think I over applied it, it gave me a very burning and stinging sensation on the scalp where I applied it. I am getting worried I hope it would have not damaged my hair grafts which are about to grow. Would it have killed my growing hair grafts ?

 

Would the overdose or overapplication of Minoxidyl would have killed it. Just freaking out ! So need help !! :eek:

I agree...at 4 months post-op, very doubtful that you did any damage...;)
