After a transplant, patients often ask whether PRP, minoxidil or other maintenance steps are still needed. The answer depends on what native hair is doing.
Transplanted follicles may be more resistant, but surrounding hair can continue to miniaturize. Without a plan, the result may look uneven later.
PRP is sometimes used as supportive care, while medication decisions require a clinician. The key is not to mix every option without a reason.
A maintenance plan should say what is being protected, how progress will be measured and when the plan should be reviewed.
