Hello everybody,

I'm thinking about HT but I found it difficult to see any dependable verifiable results of this operation. I don't want to point fingers to anyone but I have read (and on this web site as well) many stories with a lot of inconsistencies in them. This is so easy to fake the results with wigs, photoshops, special cameras etc. Actually for a not very good HT clinic it is very easy to hire a hairy person in need of money and then shave him like he was actually bald and then just wait until his hair grow back and claim that this is the truly result of the operation.

So my question is: is there any legal body (governmental or NGO) that confirms the results of HT operations in a rigorous manner?

Thank you for your replies.

Cheers.

Hair systems have come a long way...still, I wore them for over a decade and hated it!

Do you like your HT much more? Do you think it requires less maintanence and looks more naturally?

You got this thread wrong by a lot of your comments.

 

Thank you for your opinion but I asked about something different.

Sorry guys, I have been thinking about HT but actually today I'd rather not undergo this. My decision is partially based on this thread.

But can you tell me what is the advantage of HT compared to a wig then?

Based on the comments in this thread I got:

1. HT is easily recognizable in close contact (hair angles, hair dencity are different etc.)
2. HT requires a lot of maintenence and care. Hair should be kept dry (which means no intensive sports) and styled regularly
3. HT is a surgial operations with all the corresponding risks
4. HT makes scars which, again, noticable in close contact.
5. HT requires serious lifetime post-operative therapy with highly unpredictable medication as Fin (I was banned for discussing Fin in another topic so I will not discuss it further).
6. HT (for high norwoods) requires using hair sprinkles which means you can't touch/scratch your head (the same as with wig)

So what are the advantages of HT at all? Just the fact that the implanted hair are growing? Or for looking good from the distance?

Thanks for your replies.

As about Zoomster's results -- they are quite good per se. Crown area which is always a hard challenge is impeacable.

@Roman1973 out of respect to any threads that choose to start and to the threads that others have started, could you create a separate thread with your thoughts on Finasteride please? This is actually zoomster's personal thread about his life and how Eugenix have turned his life around for the better, when others were unable to help him. This is a thread about 'celebration' for zoomster's results, not a place to hijack for personal reasons. It's just common courtesy and the way I was brought up. Many thanks in advance mate. 👍

mate with all my due respect you are not Zoomster nor his deputy nor his press secratary. If he decides that my question is not welcome here I am more than sure he will find a way to do it. Many thans to u mate as well.

I agree fin will make you a dud in the sack.. but i don’t agree transplanted hairs will fall out. That hair is taken from a permanent zone of hair. That area never falls out in almost every man

What is more likely -- that the hair there are DHT immune or that the area itself contains less DHT? If the hair there are immune -- how do they know where to grow? If we just have some hair immune and some not it is reasonable to presume that they will be spread evenly all over the scalp and there should NOT be such a similar among men male baldness pattern. 

By the way HT surgeons also (though reluctantly) admit that fact here:

That’s just disrespectful to the Op @Zoomster 

No it is not. Zoomster has (had) a vast baldness so he is probably aware of the side effects of fin and definitely made some research on this. so this gentleman will probably have a say about his opinion.

What's the use of not taking finastride, getting bald and have sex with ugly woman.

I just don't believe you. And as I remember you decided to NOT use fin.

Fin debates are common place here. If you use the search function you will find a plethora of them. 
Or you can start your own and give it a suitable heading. Members will definitely participate. 

If such debates are common place here and there are plethora of them I can discuss the fin in any place I like so I choose this tread

Fin is a part of HT. Without this the operation doesn't make much sense because as I said before there is no such thing as DHT resistant follicules. So if not using a fin the transplanted hair will sucessfully dropp off in couple of years if have grown at all. But maybe you are right. Is there any thread related to fin in this forum you are know of? Tx.

Well thanks for this psychological support but the side effects over placebo are well researched and proved. As about self-reporting it's also very biased.

There is no such thing as 'normal' sexual drive but if you have sex (or masturbation) less than forthnightly -- it is actually impotence (or you may use more polite euphemism doesn't matter). So honestly -- do you have more? I am not able (and not keen lol) to check so your word is good enough. 

Yes, thanks for the references but Fin is the ONLY medically proven hair loss treatment.  Even topical fin is not.

Could you plz make a conscious effort and try to answer my previous question seriously? I am of course bald otherwise I wouldn't be here but taking Fin is so scary that unless I understand how to handle its side effects I will probably refrain from any HT.

mate, the fact that you prefer to make jokes on this tells much more than you probably realise  

Do you take Fin? How long? Has your sexual life changed or stayed the same?

Sorry guys, I am a bit new here so maybe a bit agressive so my apologies. But do you understand that taking finasteride you effectively and voluntarily make yourselves impotents? Do you understand that there are no such thing as 'DHT-resistant' follicules and that you will have to take Fin as long as you want your new hair stay, which means that you will have to take it for tens of years? Do you realise that decreased libido is the same as erectile dysfunction and both of them is the same as impotence? Do you understand that the numbers of men with some sort of sexual dysfunction in the corresponding articles are based on self-report and clearly understated? 

Having a full head of hair is definitely make you much more beautiful and sexy but what's the point of being sexy if you can't enjoy sex?

Good vibes to everyone.
