up4challenge 54 Posted January 18, 2017 Hi guys, Last month 17th I underwent my VSG and it has been one month since. I cannot believe time went by so fast. I visited my doctor yesterday and he suggested me to start consuming 2 tablets of 'Celebrate hair, Skin and Nails Capsules' from the 6th week onwards. My pre-diet weight was 251lbs, on the surgery day I weighed 238 lbs and today after 1 month I weigh 228 lbs. I know there is not much of a weight loss compared to many who lose close to 20 pounds during the first month, but my doctor says to take it slow and is happy with my progress. He says I have to give it atleast 6-8 months time to see 55-60 lbs weight loss and not to take any stress and let my health take its course. Has anyone taken this brand? I have had lot of hair fall before the surgery due to PCOS and hair fall is said to happen more from the 6th week onwards and I am freaking out. Does Celebrate Hair, Skin and Nails Capsules (consuming 2 tablets a day) for six months help in restoring one's hair? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrsPenguin 103 Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) I have not taken that particular product. I take 10,000 of Biotin for my hair every day, per my doc's instructions. From what I have read, not everyone experiences Hair loss, and for those that do, it is temporary, so some good news there. ps. Congrats on your one month!

lmart133 68 Posted January 18, 2017 I have experienced hair loss and it's pretty frightening so the sooner you begin those Vitamins the better off you will be. I purchased that brand but my doctor doesn't allow swallowing capsules so I now take Biotin Vitamins and i also use Biotin Shampoo and conditioner and my hair is coming in nicely and no more hair found on my brush..

up4challenge 54 Posted January 18, 2017 Any good Biotin Shampoo brands that will help my scalp regrow the lost hair? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hayleyf3706 150 Posted January 18, 2017 I am using a Biotin & collagen Shampoo by OGX. I'm not even one month post up, but my hair feels fuller and thicker. And my hairdresser says she sees lots of new hairs coming in. YAY. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
