  1. I'm a little past a 3 i believe as was thinning on the top of crown as well, but i'm quite hopeful with the end result. I believe with the transplant and getting on minoxidil that the results should be great in 12 months. Also open to another transplant a few years down the track if needed as dr nader said that i had great donor area. Upon inspection from a doctor in Australia he said the the procedure looked perfect and one of the best he had seen, so as for mexico from my perspective my doctor was great, the true result in a years time though. =)
  2. Ok I'll try the same, with regard to dr Nader it's just persistence and continue to email him. He will eventually get back to you but has a long list of patients and showed me his email there were thousands a month emailing him.
  3. I'm now 11 days post op. Question for anyone that has undergone the procedure - 1. How long until you started using Minoxidil again after procedure. 2. Any topical treatments post op that i should use that not already 3. How long until started back at gym or running etc (my doc said can start now but would like to hear from people that have had the procedure) Any help be great
  4. Hi Guys, First of all i'm new here and not a paid poster or anything like that (give me time to improve photos or wanted information - ill do my best), i've been reading parts of this site for a while and finally just underwent a hair transplant surgery. I'm also after post op care hints etc from ppl that have been through this. So a little about me: - 30 Years old - Male - Losing hair for about 6 years (although that's prob just when i started noticing it) - Main hair loss on crown and temples with gradual thinning on other areas which seems to have slowed now and the current photos you see pre op are where i've been at for a while Recently undergone a transplant: Surgeon: Dr. Luis Nader (Reynosa Mexico) Comments: Outstanding doctor made me feel extremely comfortable, extremely nice guy and very knowledgeable. Main concern for me was the location in Mexico after looking at media or asking people on the internet, after the experience i'll tell you there is no worries at all if this is a concern for you putting you off dont let it be! Also he has had procedures himself so that was very comforting for me to know he knows what its like to go through. The Surgery: - I had 3666 grafts with an average of about 2 hairs per graft so around 7000 hairs - Half the grafts went to the crown, about 500 to each temple and the rest scattered throughout the top of my head. - Procedure itself was painless and up until now 4 days post op its still pretty much pain free i haven't had any issues and sleep fine Post op: Ok this is where ill say what im doing now and help to the best of my ability, but also keen to hear from others what they are doing and what works for them. - Supplements: Biotin 10,000mg , Multi-Vitamin & Mineral, Saw Palmetto - Prescriptions: Minoxidil 5% (once per day i started this 2 months post op and Dr. Nader said i was starting to get some hairs growing in the crown area, this will hopefully make my transplant even more successful) Finasteride (i only take half a mg i believe the recomended is 1mg) - Others: Shampoo 2-3 times per week Ok thats all i can think to add right now but any questions fire away, ill try reply as quickly as i can and also try to remember to post updates with my surgery along the way. =)
  5. Thanks, aWidowsPeek. Yeah he was great real nice guy and quality surgeon, pretty happy with how it turned out now its just a waiting game.
  6. Keep trying Motokep, he had a little break over christmas and new year. I just underwent a procedure with him 11th Jan 3666 grafts, great bloke and great doctor. He had about 4000 emails when he showed me his computer so just be persistent maybe 1 email per week even if doesn't respond he eventually will and if you have the procedure you won't regret it Check out my blog too if you wanna see how im tracking ill try to keep it updated monthly and reply when i can.
