Many of my Houston facelift patients are concerned about their thin hair and hair loss after their facelift or mini facelift. Hair follicles can go into shock after the trauma of surgery around the incision lines of a facelift and not grow back for 6-12 months. If you are considering having a facelift and have thin hair, then you may want to have a discussion with your surgeon about the use of Rogaine around the areas of the incision to promote thicker hair growth through the scar.
