  1. Looking from the replies, looks like HT is not the choice for me or?. Or, is Spex implying I can go ahead with FUT instead of FUE? Nevertheless, the risk of keloid at the donor area persists.?
  2. Any help please? I have emailed several HT clinics and have not got any reply either? Is my case a challenging one for the doctors or I am just too expectant?
  3. Hi, Do you mean to say no hair transplant surgeons will be able to do transplant on me because I have keloids? I have attached a couple of pictures for your reference. Thanks P
  4. Hi Friends, Need your valuable advice. I am a 33 year old man based in UK with a history of hair loss, with the scale being Norwood 5. I have hair loss for the past 6 to 7 years and have been taking finasteride/dutasteride for the past 3 to 4 years along with minoxidil 10% solution. I have been contemplating HT but unfortunately I have keloids/hypertrophic scars in my body (a keloid scar in my hand from a cut 10 years ago as well as a keloid scar on removal of a benign cyst from my back; I have a family history of keloids too. i.e. my mother). I don’t have any on my face or anywhere else. Since I was anxious about the risk of keloids on my recipient and/or donor area, one of the HT doctors in UK did an experimental transplant of around 10 hairs on my forehead 2-1/2 years back. There has never been a scar in that area, but I never went ahead with HT due to the concerns about keloids. Nowadays the hair fall is really bad and I am very much contemplating FUE. Does anyone advise me as to what my plan of action would be? Help from all the members would be greatly appreciated Many thanks P
