  1. looks great! pop was a huge fan when he played for Chelsea
  2. when you split a pill that is not "scored" remember that the active ingredients maybe not be equally distributed throughout the pill and might also deteriorate the effectiveness of the drug, so cut one pill till you need another that said the splitting of Proscar into quarters seems to be working for many on this site proscar is the brand name from which merck developed the brand propecia clinically tested specifically for hairloss
  3. hey dude good luck i want that type of surgery as well and can't wait to see you scar results! thanks for the updates
  4. that's fantastic! i like that policy of a counter keep you involved in the procedure and your mind busy happy growing!
  5. check out a thread by screen name SPANKER. his condition pre-HT reminds me of yours although, he is in his early 30's and seems to have much thicker hair than you, he did have HT to temples and front, areas that you are concerned with, even though most of us would kill to have his pre-HT head of hair. but everyone has different goals for their lifestyle. in the end, you just might be too young to risk having these areas treated now. maybe not. best to get a consult with a COALITION doc in your area or via Skype/email, just to have get an opinion on what is really going on and to put your concerns at rest. he might advise fin or minoxidil. totally worth it, just to keep ahead of things.
  6. hey saw your other post of 4000 slits with 5300 grafts! didn't know you had it done with hasson and wong you're in the best hands good luck
  7. that is interesting, jotronic i wonder if the slit needs to be made larger to fit more than one graft CFORCE1: are you saying while numb and under some sort of sedation you actually counted as the doctor made each of 4,000 slits? WOW, you're good!
  8. "natural hairs available before the use of Minoxidil" will eventually miniaturize and fall out as well if they are programmed to minoxidil MAY help keep these around longer than they would have without but once you stop the minoxidil they will just go back to their gene "programmed" life span
  9. "But there is a view is that buzzing tugs on the hair roots (as the hair gets ensconced in the opposing moving blades) and this is an unnecessary cause of irritation and trauma for the new hairs. People like Dr. Feller said you shouldn't buzz." Scar 5 is the safest bet
  10. i would think only one graft per slit otherwise the slit would have to be made larger to accommodate more but each graft may have 1-4 hairs
  11. your head/hair reminds me of BOBMAN on hasson and wong website but if you don't want a strip, well maybe you can have a FEW FUE procedures to get that many grafts for coverage depending on your donor, which you really can't tell from the pics. it will be interesting to know what Dr. PATH says. get on propecia and minoxidil NOW for a year you'd be surprised at what propecia will do to your mid and crown especially since you are not totally bald but still miniaturizing and see where you are at the best is that you like the way a shaved head looks on you which you can always do if PATH and medications don't work out but at least you tried
  12. great write up better to go conservative in HT 1 then see where you are and if you need #2 thanks for the clear pics scar looks great minimal if any shock loss
  13. Got it You were really lacking in angles and points You have great hair characteristics to have a winner here. Good luck
  14. great scar HT1 do you know the size of recipient area (approx cm2) for both HT you got great coverage with the amount of grafts transplanted could be due to your hair quality, which looks thick how long was your surgery? looks like a winner congrats
  15. WAIT SAVE the money you need to do it the way you really want to (Because I paid 4000 GBP last year I can’t now pay similar payment again) then CHOOSE a clinic who does it the way you want (the fact that he doesn’t do the work himself is worrying me a bit) this way no matter what the outcome you know you did your due diligence
  16. heard of not buzzing recipient area for up to 30 days
  17. This combination can cause respiratory depression or breathing problems in some patients. The biggest risk is central nervous system depression and respiratory depression which can be lethal sometimes. As long as your doctor knows about it then I'm sure you'll be fine. Yeah sounds good to try without one and see how it goes The donor pain part WILL subside in the coming weeks
  18. consult with all three first before you choose even if it is only email (pics and gifs) as for who does what you want best? compare your current state and proposed design with there before and afters or post some current pics here and you'll get opinions on this
  19. since you will not go on propecia then MATT's post needs a BUMP MATT'S POST: 1)Scar revision + possible creation of conservative hairline (depending on laxity) 2)FUE into new scar 3)SMP for shaved look
  20. GILL IS RIGHT stop the AMBIEN mixing opiates and cns depressants is dangerous take as many perx as prescribed by your doctor this donor pain is normal (i couldn't rest the back of my head on a pillow till WEEK 5) some only need advil or OTC anti-inflammatories for this but if you need something stronger like the percocet then TAKE THEM as directed i'm sure your doc gave you enough to cover the amount of time you might need them everyone is different so don't be concerned about having pain that needs percocet at under 14 DAYS and don't NOT TAKE the pain medicine because you think you should not be in pain (i think my doc gave me enough for two weeks use) as GILL said an anti-inflammatory (advil) will help with the swelling and this CAN BE taken with the percocet BUT DO NOT MIX WITH AMBIEN i'm sure your doctor doesn't know that you are using both
  21. since you are on FIN and REGANIE and your goals and expectations are clear: to lower hairline and filled in temples taking your hair down to a 1 and SMP, if you continue to have hair loss i think a FUE surgeon would definitely take your case, even at your age, if your a good candidate we can all speculate what we would do if we had your hairline but you know you don't like your forehead height and the truth is HT is a possible solution for you caveat ....knowing that nothing is guaranteed with any cosmetic surgery: growth nor scarring and that HT like any cosmetic surgery might need upkeep over time...meaning more surgery or like you've said taking your hair down to a Grade 1, SMP, etc. (which you might or might not be happy with...) But as long as you are cool with things not going according to plan.... there's a very good chance that you will be fine if one of the top FUE docs decide to take your case great FUE docs like FERIDUNI in Belgium will not take your case if you are not a candidate i think it's worth a consult
