Is it possible for people with psoriasis to get hair transplants?
Would there be problems with cutting the skin so as to promote psoriasis?

My friend has psoriasis and he has had a hair transplant. He wants to know when or whether he could use topical cortisteroid lotions (medication against psoriasis) on his donor area/grafted area?

He should see a dermatologist.There is a foam that they can give him for it(I forget the name)or a prescription ointment I think Aclovate cream .05%try not to self treat this as he might make it worse.Yes a h/t can cause scalp conditions such as psoriasis and seboriec dermatitis and sometimes even Rosatia.If he had a hint of this before the Dr. should not have touched his scalp as the procedure would surely make it worse and really cause some hairloss.Also it may have been the origin of his hairloss in the first place.
