    Great post especially for me.....I'm diffused. So far, had consultation with HW and Batti...both said around 3000 FUE should make me look decent. Have another one with Rahal soon.

    In general it is 800-1100 per treatment and you need 3 in one year. If you book/pay for all three together it's 2400-3000. Mcgrath (houston/austin) offers ACELL+ PRP for 5000/5500 that's only once per year. Another doc (recommended on this forum) charges 3200 for one year without ACELL but they use "more" blood per treatment. Anyway, seems expensive for a relatively simple procedure. The cost of PRP machine is less than 1000 LOL and it's applied by a non-doc/non-nurse.

    I have tried everything - Laser Cap/Hair Vitamin/Scalp Elixir/Fin and now onto Lipogaine. I really want to give PRP a try now but the problem is it's minumum 2400.00 dollars for 3 treatments. With Acell the price goes upto 5000.00. Very confused as to do it or not? Are there any cheaper places where we can do it, the procedure it straightforward, not sure why it's 800 per visit. I have called multiple places in Houston.

    I'm curious to see updates on this case as well.

    un-frikkin-believable.

    This is the result I would hope for; the pic is form Asmed. I, however, do not see any such results from H&W/Rahal/Koinor. What do you guys think - Is my current hairloss situation same as this guy in his "before" pics?
  9. Panamera13
    I would go only FUE, don't want the scar AT ALL. I'd take 15% poorer results instead. The goal is to have a hairline and frontal third. I didn't ask for the distribution - how much in hairline/frontal third/mid scalp etc, maybe I would ask this as a follow up. I don't want to waste grafts in the crown. I'd leave that for caboki in short term and chest hair in long term.

    I have higher degree of diffused thinning and I had my consult with H&W recently who said I can get decent results with 3500 grafts. I have Rahal consultation coming up as well so let's see what they say. I was on FIN but stopped (or rather sabbatical) two weeks ago because of side effects, Now Lipogaine and laser cap. My plan would be to take FIN before and after the HT to ensure no shock loss but eventually I want to get off of FIN.

    Thx for the replies. I still have some left of top but not much. See attached pic. Fin + Laser cap hasn't helped for sure in re-growth. This Sept/Oct, planning HT. Already sent info to H&W/Rahal for consult. The PRP quotes are from generic derm clinics in houston area. The only recommended HT surgeon on this website charges 2600 per treatment but they were very clear in telling that they use 120cc of blood which no other clinic mentioned so that was good. But the main point is whether I should go for PRP or not. Again, this is coming from a relative who said it helped him but he has more hair on top than I do.

    So, I'm on Fin; have the laser cap, bought Lipogaine shampoo, Lopigaine Monix, Advanced Trichology Azelaic Acid, Scalp Elixir, Derma Roller...but I'm still bald Last week a relative of mine (overseas) told me he got PRP treatment and his hair loss has stopped and he is seeing growth....this is coming first hand so I called clinics around Houston area for prices. I'm being quoted 5500 for 2 treatments with ACELL; 800 per treatment with a 3200 dollar 4 treatment package. Another clinic said 1500 per treatment. I'm inclined to try one thing I haven't in my journey before HT so wanted to see if you can can give me some pointers about prices. I initially thought it was more like a 250-400 dollar treatment.

    Melvin - So basically caboki has to be washed out before we apply anything. Since Lipogaine has to be applied everyday, washing hair every night might be a big hassle for me Harry - Lipogaine is the shampoo/minox that ppl use to fight hair loss. https://www.lipogaine.com/
  14. Panamera13
    Here's my dilemma with Caboki, since that's the only one I have used. I want to use lipogaine minox/shampoo and my laser cap and confused as to do I need to wash my hair every time I do this. So, is it possible to use Caboki and still follow your hair loss prevention regime?

    Agree with VicTNYC. Just went to get my new glasses and the new thing now is "blue light filtering" lenses for an extra 100 dollars. The only studies that back using these lenses are by the companies manufacturing these lenses.

    Marked my vote as Yes. Things were great down there and suddenly it went downhill pretty fast. Changed my regime from 7 days a week to 4 days a week. Erections are soft and libido is down....I hate it.
  17. Panamera13
    I tried to create this poll two days ago since I have the same question but in the posting section it makes me add a post also alongwith a poll. Melvin - Can you create a standalone poll in the ques/ans forum?

    Price William/Jeff Bezos/Statham have all the money and still don't try to get an HT. I'm glad for people who embrace their baldness. Easy for people with deep pockets since women are attracted anyway. The problem is being an average joe and balding, that's where girls seem to avoid you for being "old". Having to decide between hair/looks and sex life is a very bad situation to be in. I hope hair cloning comes soon

    Everyone I speak to or who ever posts on this forum and other forums...there are barely a few people who Do NOT have side effects. Rest all, including me, do have sides. I was taking 1mg every day...now every other day ie 4 times a week. Also started Lipogaine shampoo and Minox and will try to get off Fin gradually. If you're single and on the dating scene...man it sucks to be that person. I feel for you guys.

    I have been taking Fin for exactly a year now (did it for 1 year 3-4 years ago as well). Libido is down, erections are weak but it happens however, I have to focus more..LOL. Earlier it happened without focusing . I started Lipogaine Minox/Lipogaine Shampoo and will buy Azelaic Acid this week. 3-4 months into this new regime, I will quit FIN. I want minox to start working before getting off FIN. For me FIN sucks, I loved having morning wood.
  21. Panamera13
    OP - you don't need an HT. It looks pretty good as it is.
  22. Panamera13
    www.lipogaine.com/buy-products/ sells hair loss products. So start with the shampoo and minox (one of the FDA approved treatments other than Finastride). I have a laser cap too but it didn't too anything for me so not sure. Why don't you post hair pics so people can give better advice.
  23. Panamera13
    There are other options: Lipogaine Big 3 Shampoo/Rogaine Foam / Biotin Supplement / Azelaic Acid. You can start on these to begin with. How old are you?
  24. Panamera13
    OP has great hair and plenty of supply. Just need to make sure he has money to keep going to H&W
