People not going for transplant also wouldn't have used it. don't stress about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member JP28 Posted May 12, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted May 12, 2023 Where did you read that? I always start using minox 2 weeks post transplant and never had a problem.  1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted May 12, 2023 Valued Contributor Share Posted May 12, 2023 Perfectly fine to use topical minoxidil after surgery once everything has healed. Three to four weeks is fine if your scalp isn't sensitive to it. 1 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member jc80220 Posted May 12, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 12, 2023 Thanks, lads. It came up when I Googled it. It was an iffy article; it also said Minoxidil or other aids were pointless after a transplant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member TheGreatPretender Posted May 14, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted May 14, 2023 Always check with your clinic though as it's best to follow their instructions but three months should be more then enough time for you to be able to return to treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minoxidil and other aids (Finasteride) are even more important after transplant, otherwise you run the risk of accelerating loss behind the transplant line.
