Hello,

My initially reasoning for posting was to ask if indeed a Collagen supplement could potentially help strengthen my hair follicles and scalp?

From there I just read that Minoxidil reduces Collagen production and isn't actually overly beneficial.  Looking for some sound advice and information.

Thanks, Chris

I accidentally posted my thread twice.

I'm aware of how to care for the donor area post treatment as far as pain management,  however are there any products to help heal faster and to eliminate scarring?

Does the scarring go away from FUE donor area? Or are the little dimple holes and such going to remain forever?

I'm curious as I cut my hair at like a 1 on the back and sides. 

I had an FUE with Dr. Panine recently.

Hey All, Can I get some feedback on what would help my results as far as FUE post care? What products and practices etc. should I be doing with the donor site and transplants. Thank you

Hey All, Sorry if this is ignorant..I'm just not sure based on what I've seen...after a hair transplant, what hair falls out around the 4 week mark? Just the transplanted hairs or all hair on the head?

Thanks for any info. 

Can anyone with experience or knowledge give me some info on how swollen to expect my eyes to get after an FUE procedure? Anyone have pictures? I need to get back to work selling within a few days of surgery. 

Thanks in advance.  

Thanks champybaby for the info

Melvin/HairlossPA,

Thanks for the feedback.  From the sound of it there would be ample donor hair for more than one transplant to buy me quite a few years.  I will look into the beard hair as my beard is dense in the lower portions.  The surgeon/transplant clinic stated 2000 to 2500 grafts as you had.  Cost seemed in line as well.

Hello All,

I did a search on hairrestorationnetwork.com and didn't come up with a definitive on cost per graft for FUE transplantation?  I would like to stay in the states for the transplant vs. flying somewhere out of the country.

Beyond that I have attached some pictures of my current hair/hairloss.  I've been told I am at the Norwood 3 classification, which I agree with.  I have some thinning I believe in the mid scalp region (Vertex?), the crown besides having a cowlick in the center seems to not be loosing much hair.  I am worried the back of my head (donor area?) will become noticeably thin after the hair follicles are removed for transplant?  I also am nervous about what the future will bring and what to expect?  Can body or facial hair be used as a filler, as I do have ample of both it seems?

I am currently taking Finasteride/Propecia 1.25mg per day.  I have been on it for say 6 years or more.  I also use minoxidil foam twice a day all over my head, using more than I probably should (about 3/4 cap full twice a day).  I also am using DS Laboratories shampoo.  Not certain if that is of any good, or just another scam?  Any shampoo recommendations I am open for as well.

Any information or feedback from the experienced would be great!
