  1. Honestly, this is a poor result from Eugenix. I am surprised no one is criticizing them so far. The good thing is they offer him a touch-up but still it's a waste of valuable grafts.
  2. Thanks Jhon, actually i found an Italian pharmaceutical company that produces topical fin but it's too expensive 100 euro/ bottle. Do you know any topical Dutasteride that can be shipped online? unfortunately, it's not available here in Dubai. As for your last point, yes there is some improvement in the crown and the hair has thicken-up a little bit. See below my before and after photos. Last month i started crushing 8 mg fin and mixing them with Min. Not sure if it will work 😂
  3. Gents, I reached out to Dr. Pekiner and Erdogan, both of them recommended to use fin for 6 months and then re-evaluate my case. It seems they want to check the response for medication even though i mentioned clearly i had some side effects after 2 months using it. Any thoughts on this? Am i taking a big risk while i am not on fin?
  4. What an an amazing result !! Congrats bro 🙂 did you also transplant the crown or it's just the effect of fin?
  5. I all depends on your current age and family history. please share some pics to assess your situation. BTW, Yaman tends to overharvest the donor area and take from the unsafe zone.
  6. Thanks SLA, it's good if the clinic can update us on the progress so we don't assume it was a failure God forbid. There are at least 6 to 8 potential patients for Eugenix here who are just waiting to get it done once the tourist visa is open.
  7. hope you're feeling better now. i guess you should reveal the clinic name, this is a fraud ! If not mistaken, this is Joelle clinic right?
  8. Hey Mate, i am so curious to see your final result. Hope you are satisfied and enjoying you new head of hair🙂
  9. Thanks a lot, i found one source but it's too expensive 100 euro/ bottle 🙄 Are you also considering a hair transplant with Eugenix? it sucks tourist visas are still suspended.
  10. Thanks mate for your advice. Actually i am still unconvinced on the suggested number of grafts but the Dr. said she will only implant the bald area with a density of 40 - 45 grafts/ cm2 🤔 Anyway, i am not aiming for a high density and my priority is to lower my hairline with minimum 9 cm height as my forehead is really too big. The final design will be confirmed during the operation day or the day before. As for the topical fin, do you have any resource for a gel brand ? I don't like the mixed one (min +fin) as the dosage is very low 0.1%.
  11. Hello guys, Re-attaching my pics as it was delete it by mistake. I had another consultation with Dr. Arika and we agreed to reconstruct the hairline and temples only which will need between 1800 - 2200 grafts. The crown area will remain untouched at this stage. According to her, any implantation between the native hairs will be too risky and may lead to permanent shock loss. As such, i have changed my regimen and added fin 2mg/week + saw palmetto 320 mg 1 tablet/day to strengthen may native hairs. Hopefully i won't get any side effects with low dose fin. On a side note Dr. Pekiner is still insisting to start on fin and reassess the situation after 6 months. he would like to check the response of medication pre-op. Happy to hear your opinions and comments
  12. Cool, it's very important to stick with your medication so you can get the best result. Happy growing
  13. It looks excellent and super clean, your donor looks untouched 👌 Did the Dr. prescribe you Finasteride?
  14. Looking good, just be patient it's a matter of time before you enjoy your new head of hair Keep us updated with your progress !
  15. Thanks for sharing, you're in the right track. It's about time now so chill and wait for your new head of hair coming soon ✌️
  16. After reading your post, the 1st advice i should expect from you "shave it and own it" Still can't believe how did you loose all the transplanted hairs in such a short period. if your scalp is healthy then definitely HTs are false.
  17. Thanks Dobler, i don't have high expectations. if i can have some coverage in the front that would be great. Have you done any HT ?
  18. Happy to hear that you're satisfied, it really looks amazing and natural result. Would it be possible to share some photos for the donor and crown? did you see any difference in your native hair after using fin?
  19. Thanks Dr. for taking the time to read and comment on my thread. I am 38 yrs now and as you mentioned the crown is not my priority for now. Not sure if you have seen the hairline design which is dropped by 2 cm. In your experience, what's the size of the marked zone in the attached pic? i guess it's around 70 to 80 cm2 so if the Dr. is aiming for a density of 40-45 grafts/cm2 then he will need minimum 3000 grafts. Does it make sense?
  20. Nice idea Plus, i never used toppik My main problem is that my hairline and temples have receded dramatically. Actually i don't have a hairline to grow 😂 I attached one pic with longer hair.
  21. Appreciate your input Gatsby, yes he will only use scalp grafts. Actually, i didn't have enough time to discuss his plan in details as he was in a visit to Dubai and i got the chance to meet him in person. For now tourist visas to India are suspended so i am taking my time to search and come out with a proper plan. I believe he's planning for a light coverage that matches my existing hair probably 40-45 grafts/cm2. he will only implant the frontal 1/3 without touching the mid scalp but still i think 2200 grafts for the marked zone is not enough. If you do the calculation it will cover maximum 50 cm2. Anyway, i will call him again to better understand his approach.
  22. Thanks Gatsby, you're right the in person consultation is totally different. My plan actually is a bit different than what Dr. Pradeep suggested as i am thinking to only do the frontal half with 3000 to 3500 grafts and keep the crown for a later stage. i don't wanna end up with a hairline and an island in the crown if i lose my mid scalp native hair which most probably will happen in the future. Any thoughts on this? don't you think 2200 grafts for the frontal area is very less?
