  1. Thanks everyone. I'm on my 1 month mark now and I started to use Rogaine few days ago (twice a day)...so far no skin irritation...*crossing my finger** Anybody have recommendation on the type of shampoo I can use at this stage that will help my dry scalp and not too strong for the recipient zone? TIA!
  2. I got a FUE surgery on the front about 25 days ago and the recipient area looks fine so far with daily washes using baby shampoo. But i'm still hesitant to use Rogaine right now because I heard it can irritate scalp. I've always experience intense dry scalps (looks almost like psoriasis) on my crown so I'm wondering if using Rogaine right now will cause any problem? Any idea or recommendation I should take? Hair has been falling off from my crown area aggressively lately....is this a shock loss??
  3. I massaged my hair gently with warm water and baby shampoo on the 15th day and pretty much all scabs came off.
  4. I'm a norwood 3 Vertex scale (Never had a HT before) and I'm seriously contemplating between Dr. Robert Jones or Dr. Rahal or even Hasson & Wong. I had a consultation with Jones and he right away recommended FUE procedure with approximately 3000 grafts (which I do not think is enough). I'm scheduling a consultation with Rahal soon. I'm definitely leaning more towards FUE procedure due to fear of visible scar. - Is Jones really that skilled in FUE technique? - What is the procedure that Rahal is more skilled at?
