Dr Laorwong is also a good choice in Thailand. -

@LocksLoomer cancel your appointment with Gro Clinic. They are a hair chain here in Australia. I’m not trying to be negative but you will regret it. Keep looking at ethical surgeons and consistent quality results. -

Dr Woods has a personality that is an acquired one. His son has taken over and I’ve never seen any results. -

If you’re going to India then Eugenix should be on your radar. Here in Australia there is literally no one that can be recommended. -
Hahaha. Thanks Addy for the kind words. Funny thing I’ve just returned from seeing a great British cover band of ‘The Smiths.’ I’ll just wait out the growing phase and keep growing it now and see how it looks in 6 months. Depending on how thin the donor is I want to grow my hair long again (and front a real band)!

For guys on TRT, what works to keep your hair?
Gatsby replied to OfficerWinslow's topic in Hair Loss Drugs
You can still root for me. Lol! 😂 5mg oral minoxidil every day. Nizoral 2% 2-3 times a week. -
I left that to Caitlin James who is an expert in SMP. If the SMP fades away it won't worry me. I mean I could always have it done again but more tailored to my hair transplant and for density. But I can't see that happening. Also this will be my last surgery. If the results are not great or the donor looks affected I can live with that. I'll never forget where I came from and what Dr Sethi did for me. I remind myself everyday by practicing gratitude for what I do have (and not on things that I don't or things I can't change).

You do seem to have a lot of miniaturized hair in the crown and vertex. I'm not a doctor but taking finasteride and minoxidil could help rejuvenate these follicles.

No I had to discontinue due to sexual side effects. -
Why is this forum so pro meds for NW6/7?
Gatsby replied to Fox243's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
The only thing that I don't like about finasteride is that it gave me sexual side effects so therefore I can't take it!!! -
You’re pretty much right with what you have ticked off. Bring a power point adapter so you can charge your phone there. You can take some INR but it’s not mandatory. Buy a SIM card from the Delhi airport unless your phone is fine to use overseas. I had a plastic folder with plastic sheets with me. In each one I put my printed out visa, my airplane ticket, international Covid vaccination print out, copy of insurance, etc. You don’t need to do this but I just like to have everything in one place to be organized. Make sure you continue to spray your grafts on the flight back as directed. All the best!

Gatsby replied to Fox243's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
No one complained about finasteride (in much higher daily doses) about taking the drug for benign prostate hyperplasia before finasteride was used for hair loss that I’m aware of? No post finasteride syndrome group was created in all the years pre low dose finasteride to treat MPB that I’m aware of either. Though I do believe that some people do experience this. No one is forcing you to take Finasteride, Minoxidil, etc. Going bald is not a disease. This forum just provides information for those that are not aware of it. At all times you should be consulting with your doctor/dermatologist about anything you choice to take. -

You've made a huge investment in both time and money in your hair. So it makes sense to look after your hair and prevent DHT from affecting it. The so called donor are of the scalp is not DHT proof. It's DHT resistant. It will still be affected as you age. Look at the photo of hair of someone in their 20's. Then look at the same person in their 50's, 60's and beyond. It's always thinner even if that person has not gone bald. -
I've asked about this DHT method of FUE. I've been told that the healing of the slits works best between 24-48 hours. So when the grafts are implanted during this time they are held in better and heal better. Also it means the grafts are out of the body for the least amount of time possible which can lead to earlier growth.

@carlos55 do you know how many guys wished that they had started finasteride at your age? LOTS!! Even at 5.5 months things will continue to improve up to a year. Stay on the meds!!!! 👌

Gatsby replied to SaulGood's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
At only five months this is looking excellent @SaulGood. Give the finasteride a good year at least. Everything is starting to bounce back and you've still got months ahead of you. 👌
