Sleeve to Bypass worried about losing hair

[Tomo 1,196]

Hi. I guess I should've posted this question in the Revision Forum instead of the Gastric Bypass. So here it is again lol. I had a lap band and then revised to sleeve. Lost over 100 lbs with band and then 40 something more with sleeve. I have to have a revision due to gerd and other complications from my sleeve. Luckily, I did not lose any of my hair on either procedures listed above... And I know losing weight is much slower after each revision so maybe I'll be lucky again this time around. I was wondering if any of you lost your hair after revising from sleeve to bypass. Thank you in advance.

You may lose hair after a bypass but it will grow back. I’ve been using a biotic Shampoo and taking biotic supplements. It couldn’t hurt!

Thank you! I think I will start on the biotic supplements now.

I took Biotin months before my first procedure with VSG to prevent Hair loss and found that my hair loss was extremely minimal compared to others in the community. I still continue to take biotin to this day yet I'm still worried about hair loss with revision surgery coming up, haha! I hope it has helped you!!!
