Hello Eric, thank you very much for the question. It's very important to take finasteride and minoxidil especially postoperatively. While transplanted hair follicles can last a lifetime, your preexisting hair will continue to thin out. Androgenetic Hair loss is a chronic condition and requires a life long prevention therapy. Of course if hair is important to you. The good analogy here is whether we need to brush our teeth. Even if we get a new dental implant, it will not protect other teeth from decay unless we take preventative measures such as brushing teeth twice daily. Using finasteride and minoxidil is the best way to prevent and slow down future hair loss. Both are clinically proven by millions of patience. Other measures can include yearly PRP treatment, ketoconazole shampoo, topical melatonin, and others. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

@@hairbydrmax i took finasteride for a year and lost about 75% of sex energy, it never came back since i quit taking fin. minoxidil should be taken non stop, if stopped all hairs will fall which is very sad

That's great!

There are different opinions. In our center only a physician performs the entire surgery. Dr Max is a Diplomat of American Board of Hair Restoration surgery and spends every minute with the patient during surgery. He harvests and implants every graft with his own hands. He is the only doctor who performs every surgery hands-on instead of delegating it to technicians.

With Norwood 6 it is probably more than 3,000 grafts. Many factors are playing role when determining how many grafts are needed. Mainly what's the expectations are, what average diameter of the donor hair, and how big is the area.. The most important thing is to make sure that your procedure is done entirely by a surgeon with verifiable experience and not delegated to technicians

Thank you!
