Unlikely. hair loss is believed to be caused by the trauma of surgery followed by the huge drop in Protein immediately after surgery. There's nothing you can do to avoid it, but some people lose more, some less - if there was a way to beat it, we'd all have done it :-)

Have been losing hair for 3 months, lost about 50% volume. But have had it cut and use keratin fibres to bulk it up... Staying cool about it as stress makes it worse lol. Only had compliments about new style, I seem to be the only one who sees that there's less of it...

I have lost tons of hair, it is very noticeable! The good new is at 10 months out it has pretty much stopped and is beginning to grow back. I started with a BMI of 37

What are keratin fibers?

What r keratin fibers? What company?

hair is made of keratin, so I buy keratin fibres from Toppik, which is a powder that comes in a range of hair colours. You shake it into the roots or into the places where your hair looks thin and it creates the impression of more hair! Couldn't survive without it at the moment.

You find it at www.toppick.com. They have hair thickening shampoos etc but have to be honest and say its only the powder that works for me. Probably are other companies doing similar but I went for them on the basis that they have been around for years. Hope this helps :-)

Thanks for the info Indigo1991. I already have pretty fine thin hair so this is a concern for me. I am going to try the powder out.

Great, let us know how it goes. It's really strange, the illusion it creates really has saved me in recent weeks, has given me confidence and stopped me worrying about my hair (which really was my crowning glory!)
