    Transplanted for sure. I didn't have transplanted where I lost. That theory is not supported by anything. It is just a claim from a famous surgeon that sounds like this "the other surgeons are not good. I'm able to handle your hair so well that, if you get your Ht with me, your hair will live forever". The theory that 70% of people lose transplanted hair in 4 years is supported by scientific datas. Sometime ago I published the paper where the authors suggest 3-4 mechanisms to explain the phenomenon.

    The fact that XIMENA is an honest and ethic person doesn't mean that her results are great. She is a good but her results are not great. Custodio has ONE real report worldwide. All his other works are from his IG and YT and some of them are bad.

    If I was you and had your age, I would spend one years on strong medication and, in the meantime, would book with a GREAT surgeon to have a nicer hairline.

    Look for medecap. avoid catellana (that a Spanish guy is trying to push on this board). imho, ximena is overrated. Never saw a wow work. custodio is very wow effect in many of his cases but: a) some of his works oh ig appear to be weak (and if you consider that the doctors publish their best works, there is some room for doubting on his skills); b) the only real report I found is quite poor.

    First of all, aga is progressive. You lose crown after (sometimes years) you lose the hairline. Considering that, it is time related issue. second, some authors suggest that is something related to the areas of the scalp: the hairline:temples have less blow flow and less steam cells.

    Supposing that both of them are not fake,It is just a matter of brand name.

    Medications can restore density. Sure he won’t get the density he had at 15 but nobody has, even people without aga. medications usually are not able to restore the hairline. I can’t see how is hairline is, because there are not pic but my 2 cent tip is working on that area and let the medications work their trick.

    I am following the same protocol (people underrate collagen but I think it makes a huge difference). can you tell me how much biotin you use, please?

    They do not survive and the way you lose them is quite similar to natural aga. me 7 months and 4 years after ht

    Maybe I missed something about topical duta. You are using duta cream/lotion, right? what frequency are u using? do you use dermarolling before topical duta? is duta in the same lotion of minoxidil? thanks

    When the doctor implants among natives, he sees the natives and put new the grafts in the space between the natives. if the hair is in telogen, there is nothing visibile so he sees a bald spot where, in reality, you have a sleeping hair.

    It was on his website https://www.bernsteinmedical.com/answers/timing-of-a-second-hair-transplant/ read this q/a too. it is interesting what he says regarding electrolysis and ht. https://www.bernsteinmedical.com/answers/hair-transplant-procedure-existing-hair/

    It is not only a matter of good surgeon. if the hair is in telogen, it is not visible, so the risk to add a graft on the native hair is quite high.

    Did you get your PRP right before the surgery?

    maybe this can be helpful

    I posted this research on this board 4 years ago. it is full of flaws but can make sense. If you consider that transplanted hair do not thin all at once but the thinning replicate the same pattern of natural hair loss, you indeed that the hair loss has something related to the skin in the bald areas.

    Oral dht reduces scalp dht but adding topical bring the dht to about 20% that is crucial for hair growth.

    coito for example has cases of poor density after one year. I don’t want link any case, because the patients could feel offended.

    I can’t understand if the single hair in first line are your natives (that I see in the pre op pic) or if they are new implanted singles.
  21. duchaine
    Did the doctor explain why you can’t one per month all year around? is it useless or can it be counterproductive?
  22. duchaine
    I wouldn’t be so dramatic. the donor is perfect. the traspanted area is not nice to see at six month. maybe he will improve, maybe not. but do not forget that the best surgeon in Europe has similar cases in this forum.
  23. duchaine
    Take the good side of the story a) you donor is perfect B) you covered a bald area c) angle and directions look correct If just need a minor touch up (and maybe a little adjustment to the hairline design), it should be quite easy.

    I saw microscopes but can’t say if they used. i suppose they did but keep in mind that microscopes are not 100% guaranteed. For a 100% result, the grafts selection with microscopes should take hours.

    All over my head (crown, mid and hairline) 2 mm every 2 months but i am not very disciplined for futa injections. (Sometimes less, sometimes more. On average 2 months)
