  1. They are actually working in the same building medical city have alot of floor and different services. I simply didnt choose her because of lack of response and no intrest from her side. didnt answer simple questions like how much the graft price was and estimate how many grafts she think it would be. not even questions simular to "if i go there on monday is there any possibility t do the surgery the next day so i dont need to travel back and forth" she blamed her team for not knowing but i didnt feel comfortable with her. Check medical city's homepage, they have 3 different doctors for hair transplant The Medical City | Services | Wellness Center
  2. I went to meet Theresa Cacas at medical city in pasig (MARC) mostly because she have been trained by Dr. Damkerng Pathomvanich at medical city in bangkok which i confirmed by contacting his team. 2,345 grafts - 60php each (if belove 2000 its 70 i think) She was very professional and kind. and i love the result (fixed the sides and frontal) the frontal is to thin for my teaste since the hair a lil backward is thicker but its because you cant transplant to much at once due to the survival rate of the hair. thats why you usually need a second seassion for frontal. however she estimated 2500 but only got 2345 from the cut and that may be the reason. However she dont recommend minoxidil on the transplanted area which i do dissagree, my hair started to grow back in 1 month after the transplanted hair shedded and 3-4 months it looks like i never had a problem (sadly a lil thin in the front like i mentioned) Start use minoxidil liquid 10 days after surgery (no open wounds) to speedup the growing process and in most cases you skip the shock shedding in nearby area. and in a few lucky cases you dont even loose the newly transplanted hairs.
  3. My sides started to go backwards when i started but now grownout again even better then before. shedding is normal the first months since the damaged hair gets healed (going to resting state) then growout again
  4. Hello everyone, im going to do my hair transplant around September and have been looking into Dr J. Peralta-Arambulo. So my question is simply if anyone have any experience with Dr. J. Peralta-Arambulo which havea clinic by the name Asian Hair Restoration Center. From what i have found they have instagram, facebook and youtube channel. and you can see some results of theirs operations but its mostly minor and not really frontal restorations which is what im looking for. I have also been looking into Dr. Manzanares and Dr. Andrew Pineda but their homepages kind of give you nightmares, however a member on this forum have been talking well about them. if anyone else have any tips or recommendations im happy to look into it Note im only looking in the philppines And as mention im looking for frontal (Female hairline like this) Female hair transplant surgery before and after images with 2419 grafts
  5. also good to know is that different areas of your body have different sleeping cycles. some places 90% of your hair is awake while on some just 50%. http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/148765-shedding.html
  6. Im not sure how long you had been using it but Read more about what shedding actually means here(link removed by moderator)
  7. I have never heard that anyone recommend 5mg/day thats for cure enlarged prostate. recommended dose is about 1mg (propecia) however due to the results here i recommend 1.25mg (5mg splitted 4 times) Propecia Rogaine Finasteride Results Before and After Photos | Bernstein Medical
  8. quote 3months slow and stops 6months start regrow 12 months see result ---------------- from what i understand. For me im really happy white small hairs on my bald sports on the sides, not even sure if i will need a hair transplant bit i will do anyway just to make it thick im not just talk 1-2mm im talking like 5-10mm long now, however just been using fin and minoxidil for almost 2 months, but been using saw palmetto for a few months, i guess thats why i started getting results already.
  9. if your hair gets dry, get a hair "impact" idk the english name. however you leave it in for 30 min, then wash it out. if you need help ask any female friend or relative they usually know that kind of stuff PS apply shampoo while shower, wash it out, applie conditioner (leave in for 5-10 min while cleaning your body) then just pull water on your head, you should still feel that u have conditioner in your hair when you walk out of the shower, when you pull your hand throught your hair is should feel feels soft and easy and silky, no resistance. I also changed away from head and shoulder to elvital because of the same reason.
  10. Form what i understand with fin is that once it takes effect it restarts the "life cycle" (which i think is estimated to 6 years on the head?) of the hair follicles with more healthy hair. However im not sure if that should apply to the transplanted hair since its not damaged to begin with due to its DHT resistance
  11. nizoral 2% can easy be found on ebay cheap, just select a top rater seller (can be found in local drug store also by other name, the active indigence is "Ketoconazole 1%-2%" and is mainly used for bad scalp and fungus) used maximum 2-3 times a week, guess people who have experienced shedding form this may have used it more common? Minoxidil 5% can also be found on ebay cheap, just select a top rater seller (brand name rogain, can be found expensive on local drug store) Dont buy propecia, buy finansteride (much cheaper) and you get it by go to your local hospital say that you want finansteride for your hairloss. tell them that you want 5mg and cut down to pieces. in sweden i get supplie for 3 month only 15 dollar (finansteride Teva 5MG) 1/4 of 5mg (1.25mg) i would recommend due to this Propecia Rogaine Finasteride Results Before and After Photos | Bernstein Medical Instead of biotin, just buy vitamins specified for your hair and nails. they include biotin and alot of B vitamins Ebay is safe, just look for a top rated seller (>95% possitive) and have sold alot. Its the real product, just bought form the store and shipped to you. usually to a lower price then your own place
  12. Fin and minoxidil help damaged hair get healthy. dead hair is dead. Thats why age matters when it comes to restoring hair, not preventing future hairloss.
  13. Stress is a common cause for hairloss, if you stress about loosing hair you will actually loose more. eat healthy food (junk food is your enemy) Dont be to ruff with your towel. If you have long hair like me, remember to comb from the edges and work yourself into the scaly not form the scalp and out, if you put your hair in towel make sure its not pulling your frontal hair (heavy towel) Use good shampoo and conditioner (while you are not using Nizoral) ----------------------------------- They usually have specific vitamin tablets you can buy for your hair and nails and skin (since its combined) so you know that you get everything you need example vitamin E,b1,b2,b3,b5,b6,b7,b12 sink, copper and so on ----------------------------- Remember Nizoral should only be used twice a week (as i understand) I cant say much about how fast fin should take effect but i know that it was very rapid for me, however i started minoxidil and Nizoral on the same time and it have just been 1-2 months for me and i noticed shedding already, not much but its noticeable while combing and shower.
  14. Im 23 year old and i started taking medication because my grandpa is bald (moms side) and i noticed hairloss on the sides (Stage 3 at the moment my grandpa have stage 6) i have been using for soon 2 months. I take -1/3 of 5mg fin -Minoxidil to fasten the hair restoration progress (will stop taking that later, its just to boost the process before finansteride take full effect), I Apply on the sides where im bald and on the top where i still have hair (since you should continue even after your hair grow back i assume it just improve the result) -Nizoral (ketocanazole 2%) because its good for your sclap and people say it works good. ------------------------------------------------------------------ The results so far is that - I have been loosing more hair (but as i understand when the threatment start working on your hair follicles, you start to loose the damaged hair thin hair and new healthy hair start to growback "thicker") - Minoxidil have some magic power to make your hair "swollen" so it looks and feel thicker (using kirkland minoxidil foam) -Nizoral maked my sclap feel much more healthy -Starting to see thin white hair popup on my bald spots on the sides, (not sure if thats because i did eat saw palmetto before, its a little early for minoxidil and fin to take effect) i will do a hair transplant soon to cover up my currect bald spots anyway and lower the front), see images in my album -------------------------------------------------------- Important to know is that The male hairloss is genetically gained form your Mother not father. If your grandpa is bald you have 50% to get bald, if your grandmas dad is bald you add 25% and so on. it sound weird to me that you say its only your fathers side who is bald. Its based on the X chromosome which is earned by your mother if your a boy.
  15. i do understand the risk. however i do take minoxidil for now and will continue for a year this is just because it works more rapid then finasteride. i will take finasteride for the rest of my life. already got a 5 year prescription. studies shows that people who take it usually regrow some of the lost hair up to 5 year after that you keep taking it because the effect of finasteride dissapear after 6+12 months and your hairloss would begin again. It does work not only on the crown, which people that use rogain have noted on their hands. its just that the study was only aimed for the crown since people that havent started hairloss didnt applie. This is why i will do the hair transplant at young age. since most studies shows that i shouldnt worry aslong as i keep taking the meds.
