  1. Thanks for the positive comments guys. DV8, I experienced a but of shock loss around my donor scar on both sides but thankfully it filled in within 5-6 months. I was worried in the first few months about hair loss and what my final result and I contacted h and w frequently with questions, but I would just say keep the faith, stay positive, these guys have done thousands of procedures and as you get to the 7-8th month mark things will really start to take shape. I realised I'm never going to have the thickness I had when I was in my teens, my hair still looks slightly thin in direct sunlight, but it's one hell of an improvement from where I was!
  2. Glad things have been going well with you. Yes I'm very pleased, I'm heading to Vancouver next month to get some more professional photos done at the clinic.
  3. Thanks shampoo....how are you getting on with yours?
  4. Thanks guys - eternaldenied, I've been on 1.25mg propecia daily for about 8 years and I've taken minoxidil 5% twice daily for about 10 years.
  5. Thanks for the positive comments guys. Spanker, I am going to visit Dr Hasson next month so hopefully I can get some photos taken in better lighting and post them on here. Cheers
  6. Fingers crossed for you buddy - I found the 7 - 9 month period really exciting in terms of growth :-)
  7. Thanks Mike, It's certainly made me look a lot younger! How are you getting on - I see you are nearly 8 months post op?
  8. Thanks Blake, really pleased with the result. Would be great to hear some feedback and views of fellow forum members.
  9. Hey guys, I just wanted to share my results from my 4120 FUT procedure with Dr Hasson from May 2012. I am now 13 months post op and the results are really nothing short of outstanding. I am really happy and can't thank Dr Hasson and his support staff enough, especially JoTronic, Doug, Christina and all the technicians for their work, help and aftercare support. Prior to my op, I had spent around 5 years researching Drs, meeting them, and their representatives, before I made the decision to go with the Godfather of HT doctors, Dr Hasson, and I definitely made the right choice! I am in my mid thirties and have suffered from hair loss since my early twenties, using a range of lotions, potions, wearing a distrastrous hair system, before I came to the conclusion that a hair transplant was the way forward. It's also important to note that my hair has always been quite fine, so I didn't really think achieving such a great result was possible. I doubt it would have been in the hands of any other doctor. I've posted a few photos, from pre-op to 10 months, to 13 months (today). Any comments appreciated... Cheers
  10. I think side effects vary from person to person. My libido is still as high as ever using both propecia and saw palmetto together.
  11. I've been using saw palmetto alongside propecia for over 5 years. I really couldn't say whether taking them together helps or hinders things, although I know some people say there's no point taking both together, as they effectively both block dht. I suppose I've always hoped that taking them together will block more dht than just taking one or the other.
  12. Hi, Just wondering whether anyone has used the nanogen range of shampoo, conditioner and treatment mask, and also whether people think it is more beneficial than nioxin, revivogen and alpecin as a hair loss shampoo/comditioner and in helping to thicken and hair and leave it healthier. Thanks
  13. 21yearsandscared sorry for not replying sooner, only just seen this. I can't comment on whether the formula is safe or not as I'm not a medical professional. I cant recall ever having any problems with it myself though. Regarding shedding, i guess it's a possibility initially, but I've always been on 5% minoxidil before moving onto 12.5% so I can't recall suffering any sheds. Hope this helps.
