Regular Member moe007 Posted January 7, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted January 7, 2022 Just wondering when its safe to start dermaroller after HT? I mean over transplanted area. And what about Minoxidil and/or Vitamin C serum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member SeanT1 Posted January 7, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted January 7, 2022 I made the mistake of using 1mm at the 1 month mark. Didn't affect the results thus far though I don't think. My clinic recommended to wait 2 months, others recommend 4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member kirkland Posted January 7, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted January 7, 2022 I'd be reluctant to add minox, vit c serum or dermarolling until you have gone through the shedding phase and are starting to see regrowth. Both topicals and microneedling have the potential of irritating the skin and the recipient site is still going through a healing process (as evidence by any lasting redness) so you want to avoid them during the first few months. It's not likely that they would cause failure in regrowth, at least not after the first couple of weeks, but allowing the recipient site the full opportunity to recover is the most sensible approach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
