  1. Thank you! So, does supplement help with faster hair growth or that's also a myth?
  2. Hello - I have had hair transplant end of November 2023 at Eugenix and just crossed 2 month mark. Currently I am taking Oral minoxidil 2.5mg Finasteride 1mg Biotin 10mg I also read some people taking MSM, Soluble Vitamin C, Saw Palmetto and many more. Do we have a list of supplements and medications that are proven to work (other than what I am taking)? I know Biotin is debatable but that's what was recommended to me by Eugenix. Also, what's the impact of iRestore laser therapy units? Does it help with hair regrowth?
  3. Hello - I did my HT with Eugenix end of November 2023. I am reaching 2 month mark and could see hairs growing almost everywhere except a patch of area where I am not seeing anything yet, is this normal? Based on looking on this forum I gathered that I need to have patience and hair should start growing around 4-6 month mark, but wanted to get it run by experts here.
  4. I noticed more hair loss after I moved to California and sped up loss as well. So, is it a myth or truth that water has an impact on the hair loss and speed of hair loss? Also, washing hair with hot water vs cold water, does that have any impact on the hair loss as well?
  5. I understand for an individual this entire process of hair transplant and all of the phases including planning, designing, slits, implantation is all important but with the trend emerging that lead doctors only get involved in the planning/designing and slits and then techs taking it further what should one consider as the most important step?
  6. I have surgery with Eugenix in November but already nervous and anxious thinking about it. Those who have done the HT, from 1 to 10 how painful the numbness injections are? And specifically the ones given in the jawline for extraction? Any tips that I should keep in mind?
  7. Hello - First of all thanks for all your help, answers, clarifications, it really helped me narrow down on the clinic. I am Norwood 5 and after lot of deliberation have decided to go with Eugenix and have scheduled a surgery next month. I am bit nervous as this is a big decision for me and concerned with the surgery, post care instructions and entire process. I have been recommended to do Front and Crown both in two days, with around 4500 grafts, could someone please tell me what are the things I need to keep in mind for? Hairline design (discussion and questions with Dr) post care instructions hair wash (I plan on doing this at Eugenix itself) follow ups I also have a family function to attend in 12 days after HT, so is that a good amount of time for all the redness on the scalp/beard to be gone and look normal?
  8. What's typical cost of SMP? Is it safe on the skin? I have never heard of SMP before so had to look up on that but based on what I saw the results are amazing! Also, what happens to existing hair, does it always need to be kept short?
  9. I did reach out but they are not providing online consultation and asked for in person consultation. They didn't provide how many grafts are needed but said it depends from person to person and that's why in person will give more accurate estimate. So, I have to fly to Belgium to get an estimate or wait for him to be in the states (which is uncertain for now due to COVID) Also, I found them to be bit expensive compared to Eugenix and Dr Bicer.
  10. 6th HT Wow! I was like let's wrap it in one session 😆
  11. Thanks! I was looking at the cases on Eugenix site for NW6 level and saw that most of the cases had over 5000 grafts but still not enough density, I may have unrealistic expectations but would they be able to give enough density with 3000 grafts?
  12. Eugenix told me that I need 3000 grafts (including beard ones) to restore the frontal look whereas Dr Bicer said 4000. I am not sure based on what they get to this number.
  13. Bit scared with scar and also looking for faster recovery time.
