  1. Hey man! Happy for you that you are satisfied! I think That you should be, you've had some good progress so far! Why do you think that the hair is not as strong as before? Does the transplanted hair become weaker after time?
  2. Hey dingdong! Happy to hear that U have satisfying results. I have a question, at what month did you see the best results? I'm also a patient of dr demirsoy, just passed 6 months, I've had some new growth but cant say that Im impressed yet. Did you see any big changes between 6th and 10th month?
  3. Looks good! I think you have more growth to come..just be patient. Are you using minoxidil to speed up growth?
  4. Yes I got antibiotics post transplant. The most of my hair shed between week 3-5. Haven't seen any significant shedding since then. After the third week 3 I started washing my hair as usual, with some scrubbing with my hands but not hard though. The only pressure I can say have been that I use a cap sometimes since its very cold. Ive noticed this redness the last couple of weeks. Im also using minoxidil
  5. Thanks for your replies. Here is a clearer picture on one of the spots. I have 7-8 similar ones.
  6. Maybe I explained it wrong. I can't see blood. More like dried blood, like small scabs and irritated skin. Like on the attached picture.
  7. Hello dingdong! Looks great so far! Are you using minoxidil to speed up growth?
  8. Hi guys I'm almost 2 months post op and I'm seeing 7-8 dried and red blood spots on the recipient area. Is this normal? Could it be pimples?
  9. Hey guys! I'm about 2 months post op a FUE procedure and I have used minoxidil 5% for the last 5 weeks. However, I'm starting to notice some side effects, It's making my skin look bad in the face and It's giving me alot of bloat and a puffy look. I'm thinking about stopping the minoxidil, but my question is, for how long is it recommended to use minoxidil post a hair transplant? I have to say that I also had some shockloss in the recipient area, so I guess that Minox. is important to get those native hairs that fell in to shock back. So my question is, for how long do I have to use the minoxidil, to promote faster growth of the HT hairs and possibly get the shocklossed hairs back. Thank you for your answers!
  10. Looks good...just be prepared that you will have swelling in the head and the face in the first week, it's all normal though
  11. Hey! Did your shockloss recover in the recipient area? Im experiencing the same thing and its Killing me!
  12. That's tricky man. Theoretically it's supposed to increase wrinkles since it inhibits collagen production, which fights wrinkles. But practically we don't know if it will increase wrinkles. I understand what you mean, but I think minoxidil battles against dht to keep the follicles alive. A battle which minoxidil will lose in time.
  13. Since its a growth stimulator I guess it helps my hair from getting thinner and falling out? . I read in many posts that it can cause wrinkles around the eyes and the forehead.
