Preexisting medical conditions are always a concern of your Dr A's clinic. If you have a preexisting medical condition, please tell your Senior Counselor at the time of your consultation. For your convenience, we have listed responses from some of the most frequently asked medical questions:
COUMADIN: If you are taking Coumadin, you will need to be off Coumadin for a week prior to your hair restoration procedure. When you have a consultation, your Dr A's clinic physician may require an okay from your physician.
DIABETES: To determine possible candidacy for hair restoration you will first need to have a consultation with one of our physicians. Your Dr. A's clinic physician may require an okay from your diabetes physician, to confirm that your diabetes is under good control.
LUPUS (Erythematosus): Our physicians here at Dr A's clinic believe that, in many cases, it is not a good idea to transplant hair into an area where the hair loss caused by LE has occurred. After hair has been transplanted into such an area, the LE process (which caused the hair loss) could recur. However, in some cases (when LE has been inactive for many years) it is feasible to do hair transplants. Your Dr. A's clinic physician will determine this.
I have a medical condition, can I still receive a hair transplant?
