Can anything be done to minimize the effects of post-procedure shedding?
• Yes, and it starts with proper planning. If, at your consultation, you are determined to be at risk for this condition, we will discuss all of the ways to prevent or diminish such shedding. We may prescribe Rogaine® before and after the surgery. We will discuss transplant density requirements and its impact on shedding. And we’ll help determine the best course of action for you. Do keep in mind, however, that shedding can occur despite planning and preventive measures. If this is true in your case, we will discuss how to deal with this temporary situation and determine the best follow-up care for further procedures.
