Hello everyone,

Thank you to all who attended and participated in live chat tonight making it yet again, another great success.

The Hair Transplant Network is the only community that hosts a regularly scheduled Live Help/Chat session for discussion forum members.

I strongly encourage any guest or member reading this to join the party every other Wednesday night at 9:00pm Eastern Standard Time (GMT-5:00).

There is no better opportunity on the web to receive instant answers to your hair restoration questions by experienced veterans and medical professionals!

It's also a great opportunity for some light hearted fun and humor!

More information about how to use live chat and/or register in our community can be found on this sticky thread.

Some of the following hot topics were discussed and questions answered include:

1. Is there an advantage to using double follicular units (DFUS) in hair transplant surgery?

2. Is it better to get a hair transplant in the hairline or crown?

3. Is it possible to take hair from the beard and transplant it on the balding scalp? What about scarring?

4. is it better to use staples or sutures in hair transplant surgery?

5. Because hair shedding can occur the first few months taking Propecia, is there a risk of transplanting hair over "invisible" native hair and possibly transecting it?

6. Is taking a slightly higher quantity of finasteride every other day better or at least as beneficial as taking 1mg per day?

7. Patients share the emotional impact hair loss has had on them
