  1. Hey guys, just wanted to chime in to say - I'm fine! I do not have any side effects from meds @Mike10. And thank you very much for your remarks. I'm doing my best! 😅 Thankfully everything is absolutely perfect with my transplant and no, Norwood reaper won't win this fight @follically challenged! I've got absolutely no seconds thoughts about my hair anymore for the last year or so, so yeah, I'm kind of "moved on". Truthfully im sort of "burnout" from YouTube. Creating 1 video takes anywhere from 5 to 20 hours of my free time. And since there is absolutely no incentive doing videos, I've decided to take a break and focus on other aspects of my life. That being said, I do plan on coming back very soon.
  2. This is the type of questions I've been asking myself since seeing this study. How else we can use it (it it works) besides typical fue. Also I wonder whether the newly regrown hair (if it works) will be also dht resistant.
  3. My suggestion - do not change anything. Funny enough, I just filmed a video on the topic of transplanted hair shedding after a year or so. If you're worried about shedding of native hair while being on finasteride - don't, at least not now. Shedding is a part of a normal hair growth cycle. You probably didn't have one for some time. Hair won't be growing forever. Check out this video
  4. You have a very skewed idea of what "promotion" means. Yes, he got popular because of me (more likely than not), but I do not get any kickbacks for this. This video will be educational for you as I'm going through my research, reasons and my budgets.
  5. Man, you're putting me into your narrow view and trying to convince me of something I'm not lol... "you're doing a lot of promotion for him" - literally not true. I can bet you haven't watched even a single video on my channel, as it shows you have no idea what you're talking about and trying to put a generalized label on me. According to you, everyone who's online and got good result is being paid for it. Anyways, nevermind, I'm not here to prove anything to anyone. You do you. Best of luck.
  6. I DO NOT do any promotion for anyone. I just went to Dr. Ferreira after extensive research and documented my journey on my channel. I paid in full with my own hard earned money. And no, I'm not a high earner. At the beginning of my research I had the same budget and options, but after researching more I came to a different conclusion and decided to wait and save up more. I'm not surprised you thought this way as you don't know what I do or who I am. It seems you're taking my post in a completely wrong way and getting defensive. My point is - you do you, as long as you're fully informed with all potential outcomes. If you will get good result - great. If not - you'll probably come online to badmouth the clinic like most others did. What we as a community are trying to do is to educate people in all potential outcomes and give them best chance to avoid joining "bad result" group of people that will ever since just try to catch up with repairs.
  7. this is such a bad way to think about budget and hair transplants. I understand where you are coming from, BUT, what would an individual do if he got really bad HT (hair growing 90 degrees up, a ton of multi hair grafts in the hairline, the hairline design itself looks unnatural, not to mention unhomogenous extractions)??? If the person have only $2000 and he decides to go to such clinic, he won't be able to repair it in any way, shape or form. People with such results are usually more stressed/depressed than they were before transplant. I personally have spoken to hundreds of people over the years with such stories and trust me, some people can't live their life normally ever since HT. So the answer is simple. If you can't afford it, don't do it. Gambilng with hair mills isn't a good trade off as if something goes wrong, sometimes its even impossible to fix it despite how many millions $$$ one has. Oh, and the excuse "I will just shave it" won't cut due to thousands of scars. Imagine if a person heals in a similar way I do with hypertrophic scars. They will be even more visible. Not to mention that extractions in such cases usually aren't done in a best way, making matters even worse. "I will just do SMP" - another conclusion people make. First, one didn't have money for better quality HT, he won't have money for SMP. Secondly, SMP isn't perfect. It can change colour over time, it can fade, it can expand to the point the whole "treated" area will look like 1 big splash of ink. TAKE EVERY STEP WITH CAUTION. DO NOT RUSH INTO SURGERY.
  8. I've seen hundreds of his results, immediate post-op pics etc. It's consistent in my experience. As a matter of fact, it's quite rare to see grafts NOT being implanted in rows. Not to mention them growing upwards. In my opinion, it's best to avoid.
  9. But he clearly couldn't care less how he does his job. By the looks of it it feels as of he is rushing by doing incisions in rows, so he can get out of the room and get back into his doughnut and coffee. No surprise people who got incisions from him for the most part have hairs growing vertically up.
  10. You can see amount of hair in my grafts clearly just by looking at it. With proper microscopical magnification I'd assume you should be able to see clearly. It's just sounds like someone didn't care much about it as its clearly not few here and there, but quite a few. I feel like I've got an idea who was it.
  11. I've read all comments and here's my opinion. HT itself doesn't look terrible, but it's far from being great. - Too straight hairline (almost no microirregularities) - Loads of multi hair units in the very front (I understand few doubles, but triples in there is simply not acceptable. The excuse of "sleeping graft" is BS as the whole reason why everyone is using microscopes is exactly this, to see whether there's another "hidden" hair growing out of what looks like a single. So they simply didn't do their work properly (and it seems whoever was sorting grafts, or even implanting couldn't care less what he does as even after implanting few grafts surely the surgeon would see its a double or triple!) - the worst part of them all is the grafts seem to be implanted in a steep angles, something I between 45-90 degrees. If you look at your post-op (roughly 2 weeks), you can see the difference in native hair growth directions and transplanted. Very poor work and its something that's almost impossible to fix. My suggestion - STAY AWAY FROM THAT PLACE. I do understand budget, but what's the logic to go back to someone who clearly has no clue how to perform a good Hair Transplant? How can one who made a bad one repair it? According to him, this looks good! What kind of repair would you get? More grafts at incorrect angles and more "sleeping" grafts at the front? Try your best to save up as much as you can and start sending pics to other good doctors for their opinion and repair plan. Don't do the same mistake twice. Oh, and also. NEVER TRUST ANY RECOMENDED LIST. Do your own research. What's "good looking" for one can be awful for another. Find someone who consistently does one after another transplants are are literally indistinguishable from nature. The ones where you can't see where native hair finishes and transplanted hair starts. If you find yourself trying to find excuses or justifications for any possible bad thing you see in some results - don't. If you see it, others will too. One last thing - "only us focused on HT will see" - biggest lie. I've done my fair share of experiments with people who have no clue about transplants showing some pics and videos and every single time they find something odd.
