Topical Minoxidil / Finasteride, where do I use it post transplant

[mriordan23]

Hi all. Been lurking for a few months and really appreciate everyone's posts/contributions and am a fan of. I am 38 and am a Norwood 3/4 approximately. In the last week I had a transplant procedure of about 2500 grafts to restore some of my frontal hairline as well as some temporal Point areas. I wish my hairline had been lowered more in the temple regions but I believe an attempt was made to be conservative with the hairline so that it looks natural in years to come. We are too early to comment on the procedure as the final result is almost a year away and I haven't even shed hairs yet. I will say the donor area is healing very nicely. When I walked out of the surgery after hours of my head being poked on by the Artas machine and then graft placement I thought to myself man why would anyone do this. But by the evening and a pain pill it really improved to the point today I am not taking anything for pain and am hopefully near the end of the swelling in the forehead area 4 days after surgery.

I am now using the Capillus 272 daily as well as planning to use a topical Finasteride/Minoxidil mix that has not arrived yet. I have asked my patient coordinator this question so I do not trust it 100% as accurate even though the coordinator has been very responsive and knowledgeable. Where should i be using the topical solution for at this point? All non transplanted hair areas? Should I use on transplanted areas once they shed in the coming weeks or so? His response was to use in the areas on top of my head, but not transplanted areas , and not the donor areas.

Thanks for the help!
