learn Hair Transplant

What happens after a hair transplant? Expect mild swelling and redness, with new hair growth starting in 3 to 6 months.
When will I see new hair growth after a hair transplant? New hair growth usually starts 2-4 months after a hair transplant.

learn Cyproterone

How long does it take for cyproterone to work on hair loss? There is no reliable published figure for how fast cyproterone works on hair loss: the hair cycle means nothing shows for months, the one randomised trial assessed women at twelve months, and community reports range from about six months to two years — with some people seeing no change at all.

learn horsetail extract

How long should you use horsetail extract before noticing stronger or thicker hair? No published trial has tested horsetail extract for hair thinning, so no evidence-based timeline exists; the hair cycle means any supplement needs at least three months, and more realistically five to six, before a change could be visible at all.

learn Rapamycin

Is rapamycin safe for long-term use on the scalp, or should it be used in cycles? There is no published human trial of topical rapamycin on the scalp, so nobody knows whether long-term use is safe; the idea of cycling it comes from community practice and theory, not from any study or guideline, and rapamycin for hair loss is an off-label use of a prescription immunosuppressant.
