do you have pictures?

pics or it didn't happen!

Hey where is this photo from:?

http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/attachment.php?attachmentid=28605&d=1334833062

Those are the photos on my profile, you'd have to flick through them I think. The blog shows before & 6 months. I'll update it.

 

Not at all. It's not thin either, it's only because the hair was cut short.

Hey when I said your sides seem to be thin, I was referring to this photo:

Is that simply because of length? Just curious that's all.

If you havent had sides, may as well keep taking it, there is no harm i guess. H/W had a patient called shuffle, didn't help his top, but sides thickened up so there could be benefits without you noticing.

Jotronic has written that Lorenzo is not looking for foreign patients....

Hey azza, do you still check the forums?

Any update?

Bakri, would you mind creating a blog so we can easily follow your progress? Good luck!

Dutch posted 96 photos, is there a way I can view them all simultaneously via thumbnails instead of flipping thru one by one? thanks in advance.

Surgery looks good, one comment though, your sides look fairly thin, did H/W comment about that?

Yo have you tried the buzzed look? AKA shave your sides real close, and buzz the top very close. I think you should experiment with different hairstyles in order to figure out what works best.

@KO It's definitely real! But I'll post the 1 month photos next weekend so you can take a good look at those as well.

Well, take my scepticism as a compliment then, definitely looking forward to seeing more pics. you should create a journal on hairrestorationetwork here so it will be easy to follow - if you are so inclined.

updates?

any updates?

IMVHO you're not bald enough for an HT which is a good thing. It still looks pretty natural and normal at this stage, I'd experiment with different hairstyles for now.

I have trouble believing these pics. The sides look thicker after the HT....it makes no sense.

Don't get off of it totally because of an acne breakout, they come and go, be persistent with your medication.

If you get off and on, your hormones will fluctuate.

Get some benzoyl peroxide or w/e for the acne.

I get acne too fyi, I'm on the 6th month now, basically cleared up, with an occaisional red spot.

that's shockingly good. I wouldn't have thought you would be a good candidate for an HT to begin with, needless to say I was wrong.

Scary.

If I were him, I'd become a narcissistic Don Juan. :cool:

Be patient man, and stick with the meds. It sucks to shed, but you have to keep going.

No matter what, get on fin. try to get a prescription for proscar.

Yeah I wouldn't expect any medication to help temples, it's pretty hit or miss with the front.

Also, dont take 5mg/day, you're just wasting money.

You are not alone dude. I got acne breakouts on and off for the first 3 months on fin, they cooled down a bit, and came up after that. Now I'm on the 6th month, they seem to have gone, yet occaisionally I see some red inflamed spots on my skin.

There are mayn who've experienced acne on fin. Supposedly its not supposed to happen. Who knows.

If your pattern is really aggressive, say NW7 ish. Perhaps one way to go would be to get FUE to create a "shadow" over the front and top of your head. With the goal of looking like someone who was "bald by choice". Look at photos of Brian Urlacher to see what I mean.

In my opinion it is a very subtle but important distinction. I would also look into tanning options.
