  1. Who cares about his scar? The point of hair restoration is to have hair. Someone who wants a buzz makes sense for fue, someone who doesnt like their hair that way makes sense for fut.
  2. I have psoriasis as well and had a procedure about 5 1/2 months ago for 4100 grafts fut. Your time lines are fine. I had the same worries you did as I didn't see any growth, but it takes 3-5 months to see anything for normal people as it was explained to me. I have growth now. I would go to the dermatologist and get your breakout under control though.
  3. You and I are at about the same point right now. How many grafts did you have? Good Luck!
  4. I do not know either way, but in all other walks of life, you get what you pay for. Makes sense you would here too.
  5. Hi, I recently had a session about 2 months and 3 weeks ago. Was just curious to see how long it took people to start to see growth? I know people say they start to see it 3-5 months in. I'm just getting impatient.
  6. Thanks guys for your response. Any issues with an FUT scar?
  7. Thanks for the response Kira. Do you see a decent amount of patients that do not take fin? Pretending that the bridge and forelock are gone, would he have enough donor to cover all of this sufficiently?
  8. I am considering getting a procedure at Hasson and Wong. Getting cold feet a little bit, not due to the clinic, but about the investment of time both now and in the future. I have no intention of making this and FUT vs FUE thread. I would just like to get the opinions of people that have gone through the experience and whether or not it was worth it in the end. My problem is that I despise using meds despite being on propecia currently. I am experiencing minor sides. I am 28 and a class 3A progressing towards a 5 or 6 in the end. So, back to the original question.....would you go through with it again?
  9. This is a great result and a really interesting case. I know propecia is recommended and advised when getting a transplant. I am 28 and have a similar hair loss pattern to this patient. I have more hair then he does currently. I hate taking meds even though I have started Propecia, though I am seriously considering stopping the use. I am curious, what did it seem like he was progressing towards, a V or VI? Does he have enough left for a second decent sized procedure should the rest go? This case gives me hope that I can do the same.
