hi doc taiwan is a good holiday location in asia... if we can do our HT + holiday in taiwan, it will definitely be a plus point. keep ur results coming in!!!

hairtohelp2 it will be better if u can afford to pay slightly more for a recommended doc on this website. at least u get some feel of guarantee rather than trying out some unknown doctors. donor grafts are limited, we need to use it wisely.

hi vincent i will be gg to dr path in feb as too. but i be there for consultation only

hi jimmy if u got the opportunity, maybe u can have a face to face consulation wif him before deciding whether u r comfortable wif him doing HT for u. anyway, keep us updated.

22 yrs old is definitely not a good candidate for HT.

ur son is only 22 yrs old... consult a doctor and start on propecia, rogaine. don't wait until the hair loss is bad then u start on those. he got very good chance of retaining those healthy hair if he start propecia, rogaine on a early stage.

hi jimmy if u decide to choose Dr Pong, maybe u can help to document ur progress. there are not much recommended doctors in asia.

i went to a local doctor for my HT, not exactly cheaper but more convenient as i don't have to travel. 6mths later, i regretted my decision. we should not be restricted to cost and travel when doing HT. its gonna be a impact on our daily life.

hi cardel25 its good that u consulted 5-6 clinics. but always go to a clinic which is recommended by this website in this way, u will be assured of getting true n honest answer. and i love ur quote saying " its stupid to go around feeling depressed about something if it can be solved."

i have booked my return air tix (only $2 before tax, ) to bangkok for a consultation with Dr Path's clinic on feb 2011. i believe having face to face consultation will be much better than the online consultation. By then, i will be abt 8 months post op. hopefully i can see better results than what i am having now.

Mr NK u got any updates?? r u seeing more growth now? hope everything turn out well for you!

sasha any progress yet??

hey gupter why not defer your HT and try using concealer instead?? but if u have already made up your mind, choose a good surgeon and go for a consulation before making your decision.

seems like the med is doing well for you. why not carry on taking and see whether there will be even more progress. maybe u like to hold on your ht for sometime?

hey bigcow thks for the recommendations wb280, i received ur PM and replied u. i included my email inside the PM. can contact me thru email :-) got to work hard and save harder until i schedule my next HT... in the mean time, will be consultation with Dr Path clinic first. after that, need to brainstorm how to go thru the ugly duckling stage without much people noticing.

i believe should be ecstatic

hi bigcow it will be nice if u can share any ideal accomodation in bangkok. preferably cheap and good, haha....

hi bigcow n wb280 both ur words are encouraging to me... hair loss is really a big concern to me and i do not want to be bald... at least not at my age now. btw, i am 32 this yr.

hi wb 280, my doctor is from singapore. unheard of inside this forum. anyway, he does not only perform HT, he also does other aesthetic procedures. thus i believe his experience might not be so good. thks for the advice!! maybe i'll wait until early next yr before i go for my consultation with Dr Path's clinic. Air tix now more expensive as its travelling season now in Singapore, lol. btw, i understand that you are also from Asia. r u also a Singaporean?

thanks for the assurance maybe i will wait until 10 mths post-op before making a consultation with Dr Path cheerios!

Hi All I am from singapore and had my first HT in 2007. Done FUT at 1250 grafts but results sucks. Guess less than 50% of the graft actually grew. 2nd HT with the same doctor, but this time doing FUE. this was done ard june this yr. I asked the doctor how many grafts do i need at that point of time and he said its up to me. So i chose to have 500 grafts. In the end, the 500 grafts ended up in a very big area, obviously not creating enough density. But until now, the transplanted graft never show much progress, and the hair dropped during shock loss seems like not growing back also. At month 5, do you think there is chance for the hair dropped during shock loss to grow back? It seems that i have less hair now than before the HT. I regretted not coming to this forum and check before i carry out my HT. MY donor area have now reduced. Now, i am considering going bangkok and consult Dr Path regarding HT. Should i wait until month 10 before going over to bangkok for consultation? or should i go over to bangkok now to consult Dr Path?
