Can you upload some pics taken under light?

Great progress Alex...Looks like it going to be a great result by month 12:)

You should start with Finasteride and multivitamins & minerals tablets (containing Biotin). To reduce redness post op - Aloe vera water is great.

Plus there is a video from Spex on post op healing. You should be able to get your hands on it. I can't recall where I saw it. But it was very informative & helpful.

Did you get another date finalized ?

Yes, many good tip and I will of course use this meds before and after a fue operation.

 

Any good european doctor for fue in my hair loss stage? I was thinking to go to Dr.Koray and not so far from Norway plus the price are not bad.

Go through this thread...

Propecia (finasteride) and minoxidil are the 2 approved meds for hair restoration and stimulating growth. So if u use them for long term u will see results and will be able to preserve what u have or at the least be able to delay the pace of balding. You stop them and you will soon reach the balding stage u would have, had u not started these meds.

Even after a transplant you will be advised to take these.

I just got this today. The list looks exhaustive and contains all items necessary. Will be able to confirm only after longer use of it

For the hairline 1500 to 2000 max. That would give a very noticeably fuller hairline and frontal look. I would say 1800 would be sufficient, and the remaining areas above the ear should be 200 on each side, but it could invoke shockloss on the hair that is already there.

Just got this today... Any views or experiences about it anyone?

Wow! Excellent result

Awesome result! You were a fast grower to get that good a result at the 6 month mark

I think Transformer is probably so happy with his result, he has just resigned himself to not waste any of his new 'with-hair' time on any hair forum sites but to enjoy the rest of his life with hair.

 

Judging from his last set of pics and where he started, I would say he was well on his way to a phenomenal result.

Yeah...he is probably over the top of the world with his new hairline and doesn't feel the need to come back to this forum anymore. But it would really be nice if he or his clinic post d the final outcome as this was one of the rare big FUE sessions that we usually come across and hence it would really help the community, and if it's a great result then huge positive publicity for the clinic too.

Now this one really scares me. Fingers Crossed!

Updates please...

With regards to the Chinese herbs question...They look promising and would definitely want to try these. However, I think it would be best to start a new thread in the appropriate category as this may not get the necessary attention here & would get buried under other comments.

On the result - Just wondering...Does it have something to do with Transection rate for FUE that the FUT surgeons keep highlighting all the time ? You had both the procedures, so if we exclude the two small patches, how would you compare the density you got between the two procedures (FUT V FUE) in the areas where you had good growth?

Hope you will update this thread based on what your surgeon suggested

I hope you will go to Dr. Lorenzo in Madrid, personally I would do 2,500 to the frontal third, I wouldn't put any grafts in the back, you still got a lot of hair there and it will most certainly expand in the years to come (even on meds), I'd hate for you to be wasting grafts playing catch up on your crown rather then utilizing them on your midscalp. Other than that you look like a good candidate.

Couldn't agree less!!

Also can you comb ur hair backwards and share pics of your sides? You might be needing temple triangle creation as well but can't make that out with current pics. But looking at ones posted 2500_3000 for frontal framing and another 1500 for the rest in second procedure. The count for second procedure will depend greatly on quality of donor. As you are just 28 your hairloss would take a while before it stabilizes ...like in your 35-40 yrs period

Ingesting Diatamaceous Earth daily has really helped my hair the last couple week, looks healthier and grows waaaay faster. Maybe I should add this soy bean stuff to my routine and replace the castor oil rubbed into my scalp every evening lol

Diatamaceus earth?? Hearing this for the first time. Does it really help with thickening hair and accelerating growth? What has been your experience?

I think I have seen a topical finasteride bottle being sold at one of the local pharmacy....can't recall the brand. Will get the name and composition tomorrow.

its been 10 days since the op and all the scabs on gone, although the recipient area is quite dry not sure why. pain in my donor area has almost completely gone. just waiting for the shedding to start now

Looks like it will be a great result. Very nicely packed. Neat Job!

You are in a lot better shape than I assumed from your original post. When I think NW4 I think a lot of hair loss but you are diffuse but not super diffuse. From the back you dont look like you are losing any hair at all. Your sides look to be very high. Your forelock from this angle looks strong - some small % of guys keep their forelock no matter what even if they go NW5/6. Which looks really weird - but is a great thing if you get a HT as that saves a ton of grafts you'd have to use.

 

2000-2500 will do a lot of good for you, your top back of scalp is actually the worse spot right now and you can fill in any temple weakness and populate some in the mid scalp as well. Doctor will probably try to fill in behind your current hairline since you are not on fin and you will probably face some regression there in future. But with how little diffused you are in some spots you will get a really nice cosmetic result for I imagine 6-7 years and then maybe in a decade you might want to consider another. If your forelock is still around then, you may just need a small followup.

Agree! Great advice

I think it's the native hair that has grown more. Have followed this story on you tube. The transplanted hair...some have sprouted and some yet to sprout. I think it picks up from the third month onwards and now every month would be more visible growth.

Certainly good quality videos...are these made at the clinic? Look professional work!

Oh....sorry to hear that. Hope you get another slot per your availability. And there is no perfect crime!

Ok...thanks. No biotin or multivitamins/ supplements?

Can u upload a frontal hairline pic? From the two pics u uploaded...you seem to be a good candidate for ht. The crown thinning can be controlled with minox, nizoral, saw palmetto n biotin.And based on your frontal receding ... You could go for 1500 to 2500 grafts.

I think u can go for it!

Nice & informative!
