  1. Basically, it comes down to the question, is keeping your hair (in a high %) important enough to risk potential sides (low %)?
  2. I gotcha. Same problem w/ my hairline from previous 2007 surgery. Dense hair, but hairline on the left didn't blend due to sparse hairline. Drove me crazy.
  3. His work looks excellent! I'm interested to see how it turns out. Keeps us posted; Don't be one that post a single update, then we never hear from again, b/c your out enjoying your hair
  4. You don't look like you need anywhere near 3000.
  5. A graft is a unit. A unit can consist of 1-4 hairs (usually).
  6. Why don't you try dutasteride (avodart). propecia is weak compared to this. propecia gave out after 4 yrs. avodart has been going strong for 6+ yrs. w/o showing signs of losing its effectiveness.
  7. Ask to be put on standby, if somebody cancels, they will offer you their spot at a reduced rate.
  8. Click on top right corner on view & create hair loss weblogs. Then paste link on profile page.
  9. 1/2" is #4. No guard=0, every 1/8" add one. (i.e. 1/8"=1, 1/4"=2...) Are you talking FUE or FUT?
  10. Go to that dutasteride.com site and click on links. There's a place to order from there.
  11. Yes, as far as I know. As for generic avodart, I know Reddy and 2 other names are legite. Check dutasteride.com site and they give real generic names from India. As always, check with a Dr. prior to taking any medications. http://www.dutasteride.com/dut...ernative-brands.html
  12. You lucky bastard! I'm only 2 weeks into the doldrums. Summer seems so far away. Your hair looks great and each day it keeps getting better. OMG, I sound like Christina Aguilara. Later dude!
  13. I know some clinics recommend you discontinue rogaine several months prior to surgery. Something about skin irritation.
  14. You sure side-stepped a landmine there. I would make a list of several docs listed and that has patients on this board you can talk to. And don't let travel have any determination on your decision. I can't stress that enough.
  15. Never heard of him. His prices seem compared to top-notched docs, except I've NEVER heard of your guy. Your head, you have to live with it, so same prices for unknown result or same price for coalition doc. (downside is travel. reimbursed travel fare (usually)). It seems everyone from the UK is traveling across the pond for HT. This should tell you something!
  16. I always buy generic dutasteride (dr. reddy's). avodart eliminates the alpha red. 2, so proscar would be redundant. This place has never let me down in the several years I've been ordering.
  17. I'd like to see the hairline of the 3,288 fu patient first. Why didn't the doc just raise the hair, knowing this is the area of greatest importance.
  18. inhousepharmacy.com (australia) If I remember correctly, shipping worldwide is free.
  19. Normal shedding after a HT. Will grow back.
  20. Don't know anything about him, but your going in the right direction w/ proper research. Don't just accept what the clinics give you, find actual patients posting their results as well. This is how to make the best well-rounded decision that you will ultimately have to live with.
  21. Peanut gallery...LOL. In the police academy, a group of us would always act up and our sgt. always referred to us as the peanut gallery.
  22. I had the same reaction in the back/sides where hair loss normally doesn't occur from MPB. it's temporary and will grow back. Propecia works, have you considered proscar and dividing into 4 pieces. cost 1/4 the price and exact same thing as propercia. Talk to your doc about it.
  23. Density refers to the # of fu's per cm2. word is one doesn't notice hairloss until one loses more than 50% of their hair in a given area. unlike fullness where hair characteristics come into play. density only refers to the amount of fu's/cm2. non-hairloss density in caucasians is normally 90-120 cm2, so 50% would mean the doc transplanted roughly 45 fu/cm2.
