Greetings everyone,
First time posting but have been following many threads for several months now attempting to educate myself as I consider a HT. May I take this opportunity to congratulate all contributors on this forum, I have found this website such a huge help.
A little about me - UK based, 55 years of age & started thining about 25 years ago.In preparation for potential surgery 4 months ago started on Proscar 5mg 1/4 tablet a day, Minoxidil twice daily, MSM tablet once daily & dermal roller twice a week.
As yet I have not decided on a surgeon and will again seek guidance but my issue is most of the consultations that I have either with the surgeon or online are offering different opinions on the crown. Most are consistent with the frontal region suggesting approx 2000-2500 graphs but it’s the crown area that is proving to be conflicting, out of the 5 consultations I’ve had 2 surgeons suggesting that 500 graphs should be implanted to the crown area with the other 3 surgeons advising against this saying that shock loss being the major factor and that the above medications I’m now taking will suffice with SMP another option.
I’ve attached some images taken about 1 month after I started meds.
Would really your views guys.
