I was asking right now I have long miniatutised hair, if I cut them short, will they be able to get to where they are now again.Probably not, because growth is very very slow

Is it true that if you have largely thinned out hair, does cutting them short might mean they never grow back that long again. For this fear, I am not cutting my thinned out hair much now, just keeping their length as it is and trying to hold them for as long as possible? Can someone tell me if cutting them short is safe, will they grow back long again?

What is the update on first fue trial? Did the patient get his hair back in donor area?

Congrats for your awesome result. It would be great if you could share your teenage photos, if you don't mind. Will help to understand how close you get to original.

Thanks

Hi, attached is my teenage photo. As you can see my hairline is as wide as my forehead width. I mean the distance from the top of my head to the topmost hair is as wide as forehead. I think this kind of puffy hairline is the result of wavy texture than density. Would my hairline,even with half the density, look like my original with a hair transplant or the width of hairline(distance from top of head to topmost hair) would also become half of original? Can someone tell how close they were able to get to their original teenage hairline with a hair transplant?

We all know that a crown can appear thinner on camera while it appears fuller in reality. Is hair transplant density, that's used by doctors in the crown, enough for it to not appear thin on the camera? If it does not appear thin on camera, it should look great in real life I believe.

What if we wound all the bald heads and inject verteporfin? Will we get new hair there? No need for hair transplant in that case.

Is there any problem in doing fue first ,max out,and fut later? Can you please tell what difference does it make

Transplants should never be done with the support of medicines. Even for people for whom it works ,they will eventually lose finastride dependant hair and in my opinion ,one has to be dependant on and conservative with what can be done with permanent hair from donor and beard only. Doing fut will allow more scalp donor hair and consequently more beard hair to be used for obvious reasons. But thing with fue clinics doing norwood 6 is that HT is too dependant on finastride. I am still trying to understand how much unsafe donor area is eugenix using for norwood 6 and where they are placing those unsafe grafts which are inevitably going to be lost. But the good thing is that they seem to be doing more with less grafts which might help them to avoid unsafe donor area altogether.

Would you be able to go for an aggressive hairline later?which norwood are you and are you restricted by your donor area? Eugenix generally plants low hairlines

Can some doctor advise on this please?

Even if they touch the permanent zone , what difference does it make? Fut can still be extracted from the remaining hair, the only thing is it would contain lesser hair. But the sum total of permanent hair would still be same eventually. Only difference would be that half were taken through fue and other half through fut?

Does it make any difference to first go with fue and then later use fut as a reserve?I don't see any problem with going fue first?even permanent hair gets thin and this comes from a doctor who does fut. Transplanted hairs do thin even if taken from permanent zone but do not fall out completely I believe. So finastride is still required. And another thing is that finastride is no gurantee for stabalisation, so being dependent on it as a long term strategy is not advisable.

Beard grafts are limited by the number of scalp grafts you can get from donor. Probably you cant use more than 30 percent beard hair, so more scalp hair needed for more beard grafts. This means people who do fut will have more scalp grafts and consequently more beard grafts .so total for most people might go upwards of 10000 grafts.

One more point to consider might be that eugenix can probably do more with less. So someone doing fut might achieve the same despite more number of grafts but one advantage of that is that the grafts still come from safe donor area. I am not sure how much of unsafe donor area comes into use when fue is used for higher Norwoods.Can someone comment on that?

After some research, I have come to understand that fut is better than fue in grade 6 patients. Because fue depends a lot on unsafe donor area while fut is done mostly from saf donor area. This means fue results are far more dependant on finastride than fut. And longevity and long term planning is also good with fut. Also, I have heard fue can't provide as many grafts as fut.How much of eugenix results are from finastride because every patient is made to start that before transplant. My view is that in the long term ,our results should not be as dependant on finastride since it can stop working. So fut , where grafts are taken from permanent zone might be better for longevity.or perhaps a combination of fut and fue. That said, zoomster results are remarkable, even if they have to be sistained with finastride.

How much of your results are due to topical minfin? What if you stop using it?

Why did not you take finastride earlier in case you have known about it?

Lol

Is everyone sure that this is not an advertisement?

I was also thinking my area is around 160 but probably it's much more like 300 in such cases . Our heads are curved and that makes it so much more than it appears. And I think u can't plant more than 45 ,forget about 80

How can someone who is supposed to be norwood 7 can have 8k grafts just from scalp. I believe , he is norwood 6 and not 7. And I dont think everyone who is norwood 6 7 can get full coverage.please advise on this.

What's the final opinion on this? Can any doctors throw light on this point? Should minoxidil be left to go as bald as possible before HT? The thing is that if people start finastride ,as advised by doctors, after HT and leave minoxidil in case they were using prior to HT, then finastride is not going to save minoxidil dependent preexisting hair after HT is done. So doing Hair transplants with someone who has been using minixidil for years can be disastrous sometimes, I believe, even if you get them on finastride.
