Minoxidil can regenerate hair after a hair transplant, especially in congenital or pattern baldness patients. You could use this medication to prevent further hair loss once the surgical site has healed. If you want to permanently thicken your hair, transplant surgery is a wonderful alternative. However, it does not ensure that it will prevent future hair loss. The best option for avoiding additional hair loss is to continue using preventative medicines like Minoxidil. For hair loss, minoxidil promotes blood circulation in the scalp. If you are prone to hereditary hair loss and have recently undergone a hair transplant procedure, it will help with hair regrowth. It is natural for people undergoing transplant surgery to wonder, "How do I stop hair loss in the future?" However, if you have recently received a hair transplant and want to use any medicine to boost hair growth, you should first consult your doctor. 

What is minoxidil? 

Initially, researchers created minoxidil to treat people with high blood pressure or hypertension. Hair growth was one of the negative effects. This resulted in the use of minoxidil to treat hair loss.

Minoxidil enhances the regrowth of transplanted hair. 

Hair transplant surgeons use certain treatments to increase hair regeneration after a patient has undergone a hair transplant treatment. Some doctors will recommend that the patient take Minoxidil as part of their post-surgery regimen. They do this to hasten the growth of the transplanted hair. Minoxidil, while useful for hair restoration, is not necessary. 

Minoxidil eliminates shock loss. 

Many surgeons recommend minoxidil for hair loss after a hair transplant because it reduces the likelihood of shock loss, particularly in women. Shock loss is the loss of non-transplanted hair. This type of hair loss is usually transitory, and the hair grows back. When minoxidil is used during hair transplant surgery, the shock loss phase is eliminated.

When Can I Start Using Minoxidil After a Hair Transplant? 

The doctor will advise the patient on when to start using minoxidil once the hair transplant procedure is complete. The majority of hair transplant Dubai doctors advise their patients to start taking Minoxidil at least one week after the procedure. We do this to allow newly transplanted hair grafts to settle in before external factors start to interfere. The doctor should also counsel the patient on how long to take minoxidil for hair loss. Use minoxidil for an extended period to prevent shedding of existing hair. Use minoxidil for at least four months if the goal is to promote hair regeneration. Because everyone's hair loss pattern is unique, the amount of time you need to utilize minoxidil will change.
