Yes, Nioxin is a 3 part system with shampoo, conditioner and treatment. They make different types for different types of hair. Since using it I have experienced 'zero' hair loss. It took one week before I noticed the results. It is also supposed to thicken the appearance of your hair. It can be quite expensive so shop around. I purchase mine at Ross Dept Stores for less than half the price ($19.99) it normally retails for ($50).

Wow!! That looks great.. One of the best and most natural hairlines I've seen posted here.

Your argument is ‘non sequitur’ or logically fallacious. It relates to a thought disorder for people who IMO should keep their thoughts to themselves.

I can see your pain is real and feel bad that you think I am 'with' the place that did this. My initial response was one of skepticism but hopeful things weren't as bleak as it seemed. I apologize for being insensitive or impatient that you didn't reply sooner, as you said, you haven't been on this site for awhile. I DO NOT apologize to any of the posters (fruitcakes) that think I had anything to do with this though. As I said I am an ex medical professional who had work done at the clinic. It's that simple. At one year I happily posted my results here never thinking it would be used against me. But you have a legitimate issue with this clinic and the players involved. You should seek whatever relief you can to remedy the situation. Document, document, document... That includes any contact (phone, email, letter etc...) you've had with this clinic. This is evidence. Date and time, who you spoke with, what was discussed and the result of the conversation. Try to negotiate a resolution first. If you feel they are not interested in helping you resolve this or are stonewalling, start looking online for Colorado legal advice. Familiarize yourself with CO law. Some attorney's will be avl to speak with you and some may not. You are looking to speak with a legal professional with litigation experience in medical malpractice or medical negligence. Begin developing your case as an attorney would even prior to speaking to one. Prepare a portfolio with your documentation and notes and start making calls. Educate yourself. In an earlier post I wrote about 'respondent superior' and how the med. dir. is ultimately responsible for the care and procedures performed by the clinic. If you contact the clinic again, bypass everyone else and ask to speak only to medical director when discussing your grievances. I don't blame you for not wanting to allow him to repair this. Ask him to make a referral while understanding the clinic will be responsible for whatever cost it takes to fix. Be smart.. If you feel negotiation or arbitration is impossible, don't tell them you are going to speak to an attorney. This might end any attempt to resolve this one on one as they may 'lawyer up' and cut off communications with you. I'll give you another medical term you case may fall under. It is 're ipsa loquitur' and means the thing speaks for itself. I believe based on your photos an attorney may agree and because of this may work pro bono. Call these people and see if they can help.

Sorry to break up your group think here pal but I'm just not a 20yo freaked out over hair loss... My money's still green tho. Cheers!

My dad's family came to New Orleans in early 1900's. Connatella's (Contella) migrated to Galveston and Accardo's to Chicago. I also have a lot of cousin's, Di Benidetto's, Bruno's.... But they all came from a small village near Palermo. I don't remember the name.

Having seen this I would never do FUT again. But that quality of work is evidently hard to find in the US today. From my cursive search it seems the best docs are overseas? Even some guys on this site have been to several places in the US with only mediocre results. If I was going to spend that kind of money I would want to only go thru this once. That's why for now I'm satisfied with what I have. At least my exwife likes it.. When my daughter gets out of HS, I'm going to visit friends in Amsterdam and travel Europe for awhile (Madrid, Nice, Roma).... May check out a clinic while I'm there, if not sooner. Nice to have a contact.. You're not retiring anytime soon are you?

I can be loyal to a fault sometimes in both working relations and friendships.. And would never betray someone who's done me a good deed or favor. That will probably never change.... The HT virgin I was was grateful to the clinic and felt an obligation to defend them. That's just who I am. My eyes really opened after reading Micky's thread and then seeing Dr. Lorenzo's FUE work in Mexico. I had no idea that kind of density was even possible. About 50grafts/cm...? Wow!! So, you help Italianos with repair work. That's admirable. My dad was Siciliano and I want to take my daughter to Palermo (Italia) next year. My 3rd trip her first...... Appreciate it Lorenzo. Thanks for hanging in there with me.

When he starts barking or growls for no reason I put him in the bathroom and try to ignore him. I'm going to try the same with you.

I've spent the last two hours looking at FUE videos on youtube watching vids and the use of a 0.85MM extraction tool used in FUE. Now understand the difference in using a 1.00MM vs. the 0.85 and the users technique. I've also been reading the FUE thread here that some guy named 'Micky' started. Tons of useful information there. This is literally the first time I've used this site the way it was intended. I completely see everything your saying now. Should have done this two years ago but decided to trust and go with the flow that I now regret.

That looks about right. Stay away from hot hot showers. I use Nioxin and have seen zero hair in the shower drain since starting the tx a year ago.. It should continue to come in and 'normalize' for a few more months.

You already said that.:confused:

Thanks.:confused:

I think the only way to tell is when it heals. Then they can see how much scare tissue there is. Mine healed very well and hopefully his does as well.

I think they should. HT recipients should only go to places whose core competency is in the area they seek treatment. I'm sure where ever you are receiving bone marrow, you're not their first pt. Depending on the size of the ACF they have likely done thousands.
