learn Verteporfin

Is Verteporfin used as a topical treatment, injection, or oral medication for hair loss? Verteporfin is an intravenous drug approved only for an eye condition; it is not approved for hair loss in any form. In the few published hair reports it was injected into the scalp alongside surgical wounding — unverified case reports of one and two patients, not trial evidence.

learn Scalp Micropigmentation

Can I use hair loss treatments (finasteride, minoxidil) after scalp micropigmentation? About half of clinics say finasteride can continue through scalp micropigmentation, and about half ask clients to pause topical minoxidil during the sessions and for roughly 30 days afterwards. That pause is clinic aftercare convention, not a label instruction - ask your prescriber first, because stopping minoxidil usually causes shedding.

learn Hair Transplant

Can a hair transplant be combined with other treatments? Clinics commonly say a transplant is combined with other treatments, most often minoxidil, finasteride or PRP, but the evidence behind each add-on differs. Some of the add-ons offered, such as stem-cell or exosome products, are not approved treatments for hair loss.
How should I care for my hair after a hair transplant? Follow your doctor's aftercare instructions, avoid sun exposure, and use gentle shampoo.
What additional costs should I consider for hair transplant procedures? Consider costs for medications, follow-up care, consultations, and optional treatments.
