Hello,

So far as hair transplant recovery is concerned, occasional use of crystal meth would not interfere with that aspects. However, your hair transplant surgeon is best person to guide you in this regard further to avoid any discrepency.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
