Dermatologist,  's  Response
hi..have have been through ur query carefully..dear in sle skin and hair changes are very common unfortunately.and that is no specific treatment for sle hair loss.howerever using minoxidil hair spray twice daily for 3 months help in solving ur problem upto some extent.also take multivitamin with zinc supplements for atleast 2 months.
regarding hair transplant,there is no specific contraindication for hair transplant in sle.however if u r on steroids are imunmodulater drugs then doing surgery wouldn't be safe for u in my opinion.
u can take a second opinion from rheumatologist too.
I hope u r satisfied with my answer in case of any problem feel free to ask.thanks.
