Without a doubt the most fantastic result of a HT I have ever seen and I have been on various forums for many years.... I am considering a third HT myself soon (might be Eugenix too) and your journey encourages me a lot. Thanks for sharing the story and happy growing!

Hi Alex, Very interesting thread, I looking forward to see you making progress! As I am thinking about a third surgery (mainly I need more densitiy in the crown) with the use of beard grafts, I also consider Dr. Laorwong - his clinic seems to be a good choice for repair cases. Can you give further informations about the costs as they aren't mentioned on the homepage?

Congrats and good luck for the rest of this journey! I am interested in the density of your beard after surgery! Is there still a lot of redness?

Excellent densitiy!!! What did you pay per graft?

Did you get all of the 1.600 beard grafts in the crown? Or did you get scalp grafts there too (and if, how much?) As far as I remember, you mentioned that you can't even tell any lack of density in the beard? How long did it take until the redness in the beard area disappeared? I am VERY pleased with the EUGENIX work and intend to go there for a density make over in the scalp... Unfortunately I am not sure how much my scalp donor has left to give (after >5.000 Grafts in 2 surgeries, thin hair) so I most probably have to concentrate on beard grafts... PS: sorry if you have already posted this information, but this thread is reeeeaaaaaallllyyy long

Thank you, Doron 😉 Are beard grafts the same price?

Hi! Does anyone know, if HDC performs BHT as well? I have not received an answer to my online request...

@BeHappy: may I ask how old you are? I am in my mid-40ies, so I'm not sure about the impact of Fin on my hair... @Bill: you are right, there's not enough experience in this topic... this is all I found: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5447335/ I definitely lost body hair (but not pubic hair) and I significant lack density of beard hair (I have a full beard). User BeHappy confirmed the loss of body hair in his post - but this is no scientific research to be honest... we need a lot more feedback in this thread Where are the experienced physicians?

Hi Guys, in a "regular" hair transplantation surgery, it is advisable to take FIN first to strengthen the donor, then to keep the native, AGA-prone hair. On the other hand, the consequence of taking FIN is a significant decline in body hair or beard density (I can confirm this myself after about 14 months of taking FIN). If I'd consider undergoing a body / beard hair transplantation (for example to fill up my crown), is it useful to take FIN then? You'd reduce the possible body / beard graft harvest then, rigth? What about post-surgery? Does transplanted beard / body hair take over genetic information of the scalp hair and thus become resistant to AGA by FIN? I'm not sure, but I think I remember some clinics which perform BHT recommend discontinuing FIN a few months earlier - can anyone confirm that?

Congrats! A decision that changed your life I've had my surgery with Dr. Demirsoy 6 months ago, still lacking density. Did you notice growth after 6th month?

Hi pjms, how is your progress?

Very nice result! And still some progress to expect Are you happy yourself?

Thanks for sharing your experiences with Fin. I started taking it about 3 Months ago. First I tried it topical, I noticed slight pain where the prostate area is, some kind of muscle shivering. After 3 weeks or so I started with additional 1.25mg 5 days/week. I then started to have REAL pain in the prostate area plus brain fog plus light sleep plus watery sperm. Really annoying. I cancelled taking it topically and decided to take smaller amounts to find the right amount for me. I've tried a lot (from 2 times / week 1.25 mg to 0.25 mg each day), for now I've ended up taking it dissolved in vodka (so it's easier to dose a 5mg Finpecia), 4-5x a week 0,50mg with significant less sides. I'm still in a progress to find "my" dosage, but 1.25 mg each day is definitely a NO GO for me.

Congrats, very good result and huge improvement in my opinion!

Huge improvement already in my opinion! And the grow-show hast just begun ?
