I feel flattered. Thank you very much. From my own perfectionist POV also the crown could be a little bit more dense though. The good thing is that his donor is still in pretty good conditions, hence a lot more still can be achieved if wanted by the patient. He's very happy anyways.. 😁 -
VIDEO - Watch this NW 6 - Full Video (360°) Age: 45 yo NW: 6 Donor Area: GOOD Total Number of Grafts: 5840 FU Number of Sessions: 1 Surgical Plan: High density on front and middle scalp; gradient to crown area Rx: Topical and Oral Minoxidil, clobetazol and ketoconazol Shampoo, biotin (NO FINASTERIDE or any other 5-ARI) COMMENT BELOW WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS RESULT👍

Asked him and he just sent me these pictures from last week. So this is a 2 and a half years update. Tell me what you think about it ☺️

I'll try to check about DHEA impact on DHT

Good idea I'll ask him some recent photos

Posted another NW7 last week. Check it out 😃

Check out this article. See how creatine increases DHT dramatically. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19741313/ It was published in the Clinical Journal of Sports Medicine in 2010. I understand that this articles objective is not to evaluate hair loss but DHT behavior. However it give us a hint on what creatine does to AGA. I also understand that more trials are necessary to enlight this topic.

That is correct. However this is not by their fault. Most manufacturers claim they're selling a .75 diameter punch when it is really not this diameter. Or they claim this is the "internal diameter" when what really matter is the external diameter (which will determine the hole size). There is an article by Brazilian HT surgeon Dr Mauro Speranzini where he compares the diameter of the most popular manufacturers of HT instruments and found out that only Trivellini and WAW punches had the exactly diameter they claimed to have. I'll try to find it and put the link here.

my subjetive impression of volume, density, shaft thickness I understand that there are plenty of devices to evaluate donor area such as K-bot or regular dermatoscopy. I use them rarely.
-
This lack trial confirmation though.

one is an antiinflamattory and the other is antifungal

In other words: I will only "offer" my surgery skills to a case if I'm certain to give this kind of result to the patient (using the right strategy). No luck at all.
-
Thanks for asking! Those results are not atypical. 😃 They're what I offer to the patients. One surgeon cannot "luckly" get a good result in a high NW class. Of course a good and realistic strategy is necessary and the BHT is the key for the success of those cases.
-
I have but there's nothing special to see there. If you really want I may post it here. 0,85 to 0,95 (***real external diameter) - I'll calling attention to the "real" diameter because there are some equipament brands that sell 0.75 diameter that are way bigger than 1mm. Average donor: around 8k. It's is possible to exctract more than that if intentional overharvesting is part of the strategy. No. Much more common than thought What are your concerns with your donor? DM me if you need...

instagram's video is missing the combthrough in a wet hair as the video is limited to 1 minute there. If you haven't seem it, just watch it here again and tell me your thoughts. 😃

How did you came up with this data?

well my thoughts on chest hair is that it has not the coverage value that a beard or scalp hair have thus, the same amount of grafts from this region (vs beard) will never reach the same level of coverage and result. On other words, one will need much more chest hair to have the same coverage as a few beard hair. Well, concerning the survival rate, I'd be bold to say this but if you implant the chest follicle in anagen fase and with all it's structures undamaged, using the proper technique, I see no reason why it won't grow. Notice that extracting chest hair is much more difficult than scalp and beard hence the transection rate is much higher. Some surgeons claim they don't do chest hair 'cos they can't even extract one single graft without transection. Considering all that was said, in my practice I use chest hair mostly for refinement, eg, baby hair, hairline naturalness, temples etc
