  1. Thanks Rootz. I was considering going back, but after receiving this feedback probably not! Haha. But to be fair I'm wondering if I didn't respond well because of a lack of Fin and Minoxidil therapy after the procedure.
  2. Hmm. Well technically it was a 2501-3500 grafts range, I just chose 3000 because it's in the middle. And they put it entirely in the hairline area. I tried Fin and Minox around the time of the procedure but got some unwanted sexual side effects, so I didn't bother to continue. However I tried both again recently. Minoxidil has been good to me this time around. I stopped Fin because of an infection down there which may or may not have been caused by Fin. I'm seeing a doctor right now to treat it and may start back on Fin once it goes away. But I'd say go ahead and try both, because my experience with them isn't really the norm. As far as what I'd do differently? Probably nothing, because I at least tried Min/Fin and there's not many viable options outside of that besides Nizoral shampoo.
  3. Just took a new photo 2 years after getting my procedure done and would like to share my results. 1st pic - Day before surgery 2nd pic - 1 year later 3rd pic - 2 years later These results are, for the most part, without using Finasteride or Minoxidil. I've been on and off with Fin and might continue after I get some health issues out of the way. Overall I'm very satisfied with the procedure and want to do a second one, since my vertex is now thinning. I was told you can do 3 procedures from the same donor area. Comments and questions are welcomed. Robert
