Nizoral

[HarryHonolulu]

Hey all

How effective is nizoral really as a hairloss treatment particularly post-FUE?

should it be used daily? 

and how does it affect the newly transplanted grafts, if at all?

I used this for quite a while with no real advance. This will dry out your scalp and hair therefore only use a couple of times per week, if you choose to go this route. I no longer use it.

there are other brands with the active ingredient - ketoconazole - that is in Nizoral with a combination of other beneficial ingredients for hair.

I personally use the Regenpure products - the DR contains ketoconazole and the NT is the hair nourishing product - 

other brand names are just as effective and prices range dramatically - so you can shop based on your budget

I use it primarily to treat my scalp. I can't say for sure if it helps with my MPB, but I do know that the healthier my scalp is, the less hair fall I tend to have. I have a really sensitive scalp, and when it breaks out (gets really red, itchy, etc.) I have significantly more hair fall than normal, and the Nizoral keeps that from happening. I use it about 1-2 times per week, particularly when I can tell my scalp is on the verge of breaking out.

Interesting . I am assuming you’re referring to foliculitis when you talk about breaking out? 

I had a similar problem pre HT and the thing that really helped me was Tar shampoo. Not sure if that has any beneficial qualities related to hair loss but it was amazingly effective in clearing up my scalp acne (folliculutis)

I believe technically it's dermatitis that I deal with; I don't have scalp acne, per se, but it gets red, itchy, and flakey - and can burn when left untreated. The Nizoral/Clobetasol Proprionate combo has been a miracle working formula for me when I have flareups.
