    Any updates on this? Has it gone away? I'm one month post op and experiencing something similar. (2) Thanks!

    Very interested. I'm also 32, had a HT 10 days ago, and i won't take Propecia, since i tried it before and had collaterals. But i'm planning to start Rogaine on day 16. Also not interested in taking any medication in perpetuity. Can i experience some shedding after starting Rogaine? And then when i stop using it? Pehaps i should not start it?

    I realy dont get what consists this 'increased risk' you guys talking about :confused::confused: Is it the possibility of accidentaly pulling out the grafts? Im glad i can only see advantages (not the price), like long hair covering the post op signals, knowing how your body will accept the new hair (comparing day 1 to day 365), less risk of shock loss etc.. Hope this will work

    He'll be performing a FUT and its my first time :eek::eek: I have a poor donor area, very thin and blond hair, so i think this method could help since i can choose real time: area covered vs density; going for what pleases me most, regarding my donor limitations.

    Well, i really dont know how those inicial few days would affect final outcome. In both methods the final outcome will be the same. In the chapter from the book posted earlier (Hair Transplant 360) he states that, depending on the pacient, at the end of surgery the grafts are pretty much adhered to the sites (fibrin etc), so he can even comb the new hair (gently, no traction). And of course no traction on the first week, i think its not hard to do it. Anyway, he's located like 10 blocks from my house, highly recommended here, applying this method for 10+ years, i guess ill go for it! Wish me luck

    Here (LINK - page 37 and following) you can see a more detailed approach. I'm considering doing it, the MD has more than 10 years performing this kind of method...
