I wanted to share this result with everyone as I think its important to understand how effective Propecia has the potential to be in addition to hair transplantation or as a stand alone remedy. Dr. Dorin did recommend the option of larger FUT but strongly urged the patient to consider medical therapy and I would say the patient is very glad he took that advice. Of course, this type of transformation is not to be expected in every case but often with a diffuse or miniturized balding pattern like below we see meaningful cosmetic improvement.

Very impressive! Lucky guy. However, for the benefit of newbies contemplating finasteride use, "this type of transformation is not to be expected in every case" should be changed to "this type of transformation is far from typical."

this patient is 29

That's impressive. I remember reading that Finasteride was more effective re-growing hair in younger guys although I cannot recall where or if there was any scientific basis for the claim.

Wow. Fantastic result; thank you for sharing. I really think this goes to show how well finasteride can reverse progressive hair loss and help restore density. Especially in the scalp/vertex of younger patients who really proactively treat their hair loss.
