Anyone had a Hair transplant after cancer?

Hi everyone,

I’m a blood cancer survivor, in remission since early 2022.
My hair hasn’t fully grown back since chemotherapy- it’s still thin and patchy, and it’s been a big hit to my confidence. Honestly, I’m feeling really depressed about this and struggling to accept how I look now.

I’ve also been using Minoxidil for around 7 months, but unfortunately, I haven’t seen much improvement.

I’ve been searching for months but haven’t been able to find real stories from actual patients who had a hair transplant after completing cancer treatment. Almost everything online seems to be clinic advertisements or generic articles, not real experiences.

So I’m reaching out here to ask:

  • Has anyone personally had a hair transplant after chemo or radiation?
  • How long did you wait after finishing treatment?
  • What was your experience and results like?
  • Any advice or options you can recommend?

I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who’s actually been through this, just to know what options are out there and what’s realistically possible.

Thanks so much
