I Had a Transplant and Take Propecia – Is It Too Late for Miniaturization Mapping? – Hair Loss Information – Balding Blog

Hi Dr. Rassman. You’ve written that after miniaturization mapping you can do a good job predicting what balding pattern a person will likely develop. If I’ve already had a hair transplant a few years ago and have been on Propecia, and mapping wasn’t done beforehand, is there no way for me to predict where I’m headed? Thanks.

I believe a miniaturization study is a good measurement of your hair status at one given point in time. It’s like taking your blood pressure or pulse when you go see your doctor. Even if you had a hair transplant, this should not matter. So to answer your question — no, it’s not too late.
