I always hear that one reason you don't get as much density from body hair grafts as you do with scalp grafts is because body hair grafts are almost all single hair

But the beard hairs are twice as thick as the scalp hairs, so that cancels it out again

It depends what part of the body you're getting it from. Beard hair will grow more quickly and will usually be more thick too. What area of your body are you getting the hair from?

Beard.  But I'm curious to know how quickly chest hairs grow too

Calling all bodyhair transplant  patients. How long did it take your BHT to grow?

Maybe start a new thread asking this question and periodically bump it form time to time??

Heck, I'll do it 🙂

There are companies that will write fake reviews for a price.  You cant trust yelp, google....etc

Is it true that it can take around 5 months in some guys before they see their first growth??

I’m in the US?? Doesn’t allow me to buy it? Is there a way I can bypass that?

I dont know, man.  Maybe contact the site directly and ask them??

I know it's incredibly frustrating but you are not even at the half way mark of your journey from this surgery. Patience is a difficult thing to maintain but as others have said you can only make an informed judgement once you've reached 12 months. All the best

And sometimes even 18 months

Says not available for purchase??

Works fine for me.  I can add it to my shopping cart no problem.

What country are you in??  Maybe the site blocks foreign IP#??

Is it cheaper than making it myself? Prescription is 30$ a month for a month supply plus topical minox 

Why would you do it yourself when you can buy it for $35 https://www.minoxidilmax.com/topical-finasteride-with-minoxidil-Essengen-6-Plus

The left side is a different story.  There is poor growth so far, but I know I'm only 5 months in so I will be patient with that aspect

 

 

Every hair transplant I've ever seen (including mine) the left side of the scalp always lags behind the right side of the scalp when it comes to initial growth.  I have no idea why that is

How do we get a prescr

 

How would we go about getting a prescription though? What strength is recommended ? 

You dont need a prescription for some of these sites.  Just click buy.

If I were you though I'd start with topical FIN. 

This site sells good quality topical solutions: https://www.minoxidilmax.com/

I even know guys who use both topical FIN and topical DUT together

hmmm, if this were simply the case i feel like I would have heard WAY more about topical Dut on the hair channels that i follow...

Genuinely curious, is this safe...? Is it as effective as Fin? 

If so, why doesn't everyone skip fin and go straight to topical Dut?

Because most people get a script from their doctor for FIN pills and dont realize you can buy topical FIN or DUT online

I would give it 3 weeks just to make sure, but 2 weeks is most likely okay though

After 2 to 3 weeks you should be fine. 

The grafts are buried secure deep into your scalp and cannot be pulled out

How many of you who have gotten a hair transplant on the top of your head have decided to leave the crown alone and leave it bald?? I've seen some guys get away with it, they looked okay. with a bald crown.  And on others it looks incomplete and not very good

Does anyone know which city Dr. Arika works out of in India??

.

Dr. Rahal wrote a good article on it: https://www.rahalhairtransplant.com/many-grafts-need-full-head-hair/

-Month 3-5: Hairs begin popping through surface

-Month 5: 50% of hairs popped or penetrated surface

-Month 6: 60% popped

-Month 7: 70%

-Month 8: 80%

-Month 9: 90% - 100%; biggest changes in overall appearance from this point forward are usually do to maturation and not new popping.

*As with the maturation timeline, this is a rough estimate and no two patients will be the same. Being advanced or slow on this timeline also has no bearing on the final result and a hair transplant really shouldn't be evaluated in full until at LEAST the 12 month mark.

Do you have brothers? Are they bald?

No brother, just one sister.

My grandfather had a full head of hair, and so did my great-grandfather.

Go figure
