Regular Member slim999 Posted July 28, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted July 28, 2021 Hi, I am planning to get FUE HT done in around 3-4 months time. I have been getting mixed advise from HT surgeons regarding the application of Minoxidil before HT I believe the application of Minoxidil should be started after the HT. What about before HT ? Is it a good idea to start applying it now ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted July 28, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 28, 2021 It’s always a good idea to start preventative medication beforehand.

Senior Member gillenator Posted July 28, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted July 28, 2021 It appears that you have time to start now however be sure to check with the surgeon you end up choosing as to when they want you to stop the medication prior to your surgery date.

Senior Member SLA Posted July 30, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted July 30, 2021 I have heard Dr. Arika with Eugenix say to stop minoxidil 15 days prior to the HT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
