  1. Hi guys, (I hope I've posted this in the right section!?) I'm 21 years old and been suffering from MPB now for about three and a half years. :eek: It sucks and feels awful loosing hair at such a young age. I've been on Propecia and Rogaine for a year and a half now and it's managed to stabilise my loss. I haven't really had any regrowth though from my treatments but I expected it as they are mainly for prevention. I'm really unhappy with the way my hair looks and it's caused me to loose a lot of confidence. I've recently got a place at university, and I'm so nervous and worried to go because of my situation! I've been thinking about a HT, I'm a Norwood Three with a Vertex too. I'm not sure if I am to young or not for it though? Another remedy I found is BioFibre. It's sort of like fake hair but it actually gets fixed in to your scalp in the thinning areas and their is no recovery! I desperately want to do something about my hair. Does anyone have any experience of BioFibre? I couldn't find a lot of things about it. It seems like their is a risk of infection with it though which doesn't sound to promising. I'm open to all options apart from a Hair System which I'm not interested to get. I play a lot of sport so I don't think this option would be convenient. :confused: Thanks for your help! Cheers, Cammy
  2. Thank you for your reply voxman! I'm glad to hear BioFibre worked so well for you, congratulations! Is it okay to play sports and swim with it? And can you style it anyway you want and things like that? This sounds like a really great option!
  3. Thanks so much for your response again! I haven't used this forum in ages, but I'm finally back. I've got an appointment with my Dermatologist next week to discuss about my options regarding a HT or a BioFibre Implant. I've also looked the names of the surgeons that you guys recommended and they seem great! :cool: Does anyone know of any good HT surgeons or places in England that I can research about? Cheers
  4. Thanks for your reply Gillenator I guess your right, how long does it normally take to book your surgery in?
  5. Hi Delancey & Hadenough Thanks very much for your responses, I really appreciate it! If I'm going to get one, I want to try and get it quite soon because I start university next September so I wont to get the first few months out of the way before I go Is Dr Lorenzo from England also? I think your right though about any using trusted surgeons only. Is FUE definitely a better surgery type to select compared with FUT? I have also found something called a BioFibre hair surgery, which is sort of pretend grafts but look the same as real hair? This can have instant results and maybe a bit cheaper than a Hair Transplant, however I'm not sure about this too?
  6. Hi guys, So I just signed up here. I've been looking at this forum for a while deciding whether to sign up and I think it's a great place to come for advice and feedback The main reason I have came here is because I'm considering a Hair Transplant and would like some more information. (Please read my Hair Loss Story on my profile if you want to understand more) Thanks! I'm about a Norwood III with a thinning vertex. After some investigation and reading I have decided that I think the FUE Hair Transplant maybe be the best option as it doesn't involve as long recovery time and stitches and that kind of thing. I'm from England (UK) so I'm not sure if there are many other Brits here? I'm having trouble searching for a surgeon here in the UK because you just don't know who is reliable and safe? I've found some companies called "Ziering" and "Vinci" which seem pretty promising but I don't know? I saw you guys had a coalition list and only a couple of doctors got on to it, Farjo, Lorenzo and Reddy. Are these the surgeons who are well trusted and can do a good job in the UK? I noticed they are a lot abroad too. I've also found two clinics in Scotland which seem okay too. A few footballers have gone there so I thought it must be so bad if famous people can go there? I'll put the links of them: (Links removed by moderator) Thanks so much for reading, if you could read my Hair Loss Story on my profile and give me some feedback about the things on this thread too, that would be fantastic! Have a nice day everyone. Cheers
