  1. Hi TM

    I hear you loud and clear... I found myself looking at this minute 1/4 pill on the tip of my finger thinking "what's the catch?".. Surely it can't work in such a small dinky amount... 

    Well it's worked great with me since I started end Dec 19 post my HT.. 

    My research told me the most prudent dose to take is 1/4 pill every M W F ie 3 times a week.. To help ensure no sides. 

    The actual effective half life of fin is 30 days in the TISSUE of scalp not bloodstream.... Therefore this 7 times a week optimal dose trumpeted by the manufacturers is merely an exercise in "Optimal" extracting of cash from its customer base. 

    1/4 pill 3 times a week and you're good to go.... Trust me.

  2. Super stuff Paddy.. Continued good growing.. Months 5 to 8 will be the "business end" of  things.. 

    Re the Aloe Vera juice.. Are you spritzing it topically or having a little slug each day??.. Its obviously working 

    Happy Easter

  3. Looks like I got my maths wrong last week 

    today is actually 3 months since procedure ...I thought I’d give some direct daylight pics this which gives the most transparent view on things...

    also attaching a beard pic ..1600 grafts were taken from here ..you’d never notice a thing

    stsy safe and well out there everyone...seems a bit futile loading HT progress pics at this moment in time

  4. @paddyirishman.. Well said P

    Kinda puts things into perspective a bit in these changing times of ours 

    A few grafts here or their doesn't quite seem as important right now.. 

    Stay safe and well where you are... You paint an idyllic picture where you are. 

    Even more idyllic when the wind is blowing through newly grown out locks come mid Sumner 😉

    Hi All

    just thought I’d share how coming on 3 Months looks like with my preferred 0.5 mm buzz ..barber did yesterday ...

    I think “illusion of density “ doesn’t only apply to récipient area ..personally speaking I think the tighter the buzz back and sides the better to give “ illusion of density “ in Donor also ..providing of course the procedure was refined enough to allow it...Im thrilled the way my donor turned out to be honest giving that there were 5600 grafts extracted from scalp 

    Things hopefully start getting more exciting from here on in

    the waiting game for me was and is  by far the worst part of the whole process ..

    stay safe and well out there guys 
     

    lll check back in end April .

  6. Well P. 

    Can you tell me what you eat for breakfast please.. With such good early growth I'm very envious I must say... 😊

    You must be thrilled...

    Continued good growing my friend

  7. Hi Jeff

    I sense your frustration. I was in the same boat myself after my procedure end of Dec last year.. DHT@Eugenix

    I stay in hotels 2 something 3 nights each week and having a nice swim in the pool followed by a lazy Sauna was always something I looked forward to at the end of each day while away from home... I developed a pretty big resentment having to wait a period of time before having a proper swim..swim hats are typically super tight silicone which are a no no early recovery so youre faced with hotel issue polyester type which aren't "waterproof"... Water just seeps through 

    I'm must have Olympic level of head above wading skills at the stage.. 

    I allowed myself 10mins sauna twice a week after one mónth post op

    I'm OK with 20 min max twice a week at this stage 3 months post op 

    People don't really refer to the non financial price we pay when we opt for surgery...guess its all part of the process.... Its a commitment for sure.. Not always an easy one 

    Good luck with everything
