@HelpfulFriend Their YouTube videos are just spurting the same info you'd find anywhere online man. They are obviously knowledgeable, though you would hope so being a surgeon. I have met a few former patients and their results were so under par the PGA came and gave them each a gold jacket.

@whattheFUE first off, great handle name! I dont disagree with what you are saying mate, I have been using this forum since maybe 2009 and have watched it go through all kinds of phases. As I started re-lurking again a few months ago (haven't been active since 2016) I noticed many of the old school popular users such as Spex, Joe etc not appearing. To be honest they are becoming redundant as there is so much information now available compared to 10 years ago, YouTube, new techniques, new clinics, new forums etc etc. We don't need their newest "eBook" or whatever they are trying to market these days online. Having been a paid rep myself I literally trust less than 5% of the industry with some of things I had experienced behind the scenes. So some of these guys never really had your best intentions at heart. Compared with most forums HRN is one of best still in terms of patient posting, there are many surgeons on here whom are recommended that I personally believe are way behind the 8 ball in terms of technique and results, but hey, I don't run this place.

I feel for you man, I do!Certainly could be a case of transection in some areas. Your pre op photos have fairly dark lighting, then post op looks like you're in the white room with Neo and Morpheus looking for guns. Even guys with non MPB would look thin in these conditions. The work looked super tight throughout the very frontal hairline maybe some grafts did not make it for the ride. At 8 months you'd assume to be further along really. Regarding the Minox usage and ceasing for the 6 week period, no way would that have caused this issue unless those hairs were so dependant on the medication the entire time you have been using it. Which to be real is like zero percent.

Looking like a winner mate! Keep up that regimen Mike

Great work Dr S!

Awesome work and great to see an fue crown case up

Haha that was a great comparison there mate!

You have mentioned two great Drs there mate, best thing is to review both physicians results based on your current situation to match who will be right for you at the end of the day we can't tell you who is better but to go with your instincts. But I know who would be my pick of the litter lol

Hey Baracuda Sorry to hear of your struggles with hair loss at Such an early age. The positive is that you have commenced medications and planning for future loss with what seems to be realistic goals in mind. As mentioned age isn't always the end note for a procedure and in your case hanging on a little longer with meds might not change the overall outcome. My procedure with Dr Rahal was roughly around your age all i would not consider myself to be young at the time. You've mentioned some really great physicians can i ask if you have consulted with any of the clinics as yet mate?

Hi Sharkman I am very sorry to hear of your experience, truly! I would be very interested to see some post op and pre op photos if you have any available? As many stated is difficult to comment on your situation without having seen it. I am happy to notify the clinic or at least make them aware of this post/thread. If you could supply photos would be much appreciated. Dr Rahal is a very ethical physician as I wasn't present during your conversation with him I can only assume he could not "ethically" waste too many valuable Grafts in one session depending on your expectation. Cheers

24 months down without a Frown! My rap game is strong today! Seriosuly this is a out of the park outcome Mike

I cummed the use of both Fin and Dut two years ago based on that study and a few months of forum investigation. So far so good yet cannot distinguish if DUT has gone the distance or fin has just remained relevant for me all these years. Not sure if I am one of the long standers of this double does ED. Mike

Uh huh

I have been double dosing with Dutas and Proscar 1/4's for two years, so far so GooD.. Check my signature if you want to know more hit me up via pm or easily email mate!

Hey zx the two weeks post op is looking like a win so far! Good to see you sticking on Minox as well! Are you wearing a hat or beanie when out? Good trick is to get your hands on a trucker mesh hat as they breathe really well for the scalp.
