  1. Hey guys, thanks for the kind words!

    MiradaEast, as i know, you are not be able to choose a surgeon and decision on who will perform a surdgery is taken just bofore it begins. I think that its not so important who will do, because all doctors have sufficient experience and skills.

    Some words about my progress. As i mentioned before, i am definitely a slow grower. now i'am at the 13 months and i notice that my hair still comes more strong and thick.

  2. You look very good. I just literally finished my 2000 Grafts HT also at the HLC in Ankara. After 4+ years of thorough detailed research I decided to go with HLC and guys.. what an exprience and such talented, detailed and incredible surgeons. What a hidden gem. I will be posting my story soon.

     

    Thanks :) It would be interesting to follow your progress. I wish you a good result!

    They are definitely a hidden clinic cause they dont invest a lot of money in advertising. Their works speaks for themselves.

  3. Work looked quite good and growth so far is right on schedule. You look to be headed to a great result! If I may enquire, you mentioned the stick and place technique used, so they went 1 for 1, they immediately extracted and implanted the same hair no real time sitting out of body? or am I understanding you incorrectly?

     

    A little bit incorrect. In one session they extract about 500-700 grafts and after that implant them in recepient area.

     

    "For regular hair transplants, a surgeon typically makes all of the recipient site incisions first, or in stages, then transplants the follicular hair units into each recipient site on by one. With a stick and place technique, however, the surgeon will transplant the follicular hair unit immediately after the incision is made. The surgeon will continue to make a recipient site and then place the graft immediately after until the hair restoration procedure is complete."

  4. That is very good. An 80% drop in dht.

     

    There's some studies that were done which gave the median drop of a 1mg per day dose of 68.7%, 0.2mg per day was 61.7%, 5 mg 69.2% and 0.01mg 10.8%.

     

    You could probably get away with 0.25mg, Mon, weds, Fri OR every 2 days.

     

    I have done the former before but nowadays just take 1mg once per week for simplicity. DHT doesn't bounce back to normal levels very quickly.

     

    (Never had a dht test but have considered it)

     

    How long did you take 1 mg once per week? Thought your previous regimen and dosage were 1 mg ed...

    What was your goal, to avoid/minimize side effects? Did you notice some difference after that?
