I guess that is where I have the issue. It is interesting that Bisanga puts oral Minox now on the same level with Finansteride. But there are no scientific studies who prove teh longterm efficiency with Fin. I hope this was all explained to the patient.

It is not enough to just post results. Age and Medication should be added at the beginning. Unfortunately it is very important this patient commits lifelong to Fin. I hope that this was all explained to him and also the risk of sides appearing down the stretch or efficacy loss.Nothing is guaranteed. WIth Bisanga , that was probably the case but I just do not understand why these videos do not mention

you have any source tpo back this up?

Do not think anything can be done against cobblestone. It is just one of these unpredictable outcomes

I think this is true. But do you think this is also applies in a case when the patient is older. I am NW2 and aleady 41 age? I am happy to hold off on HT no problem , just curious to have your opinion

because of the shockloss risk?

so you think Tillman is just in it for the money? to me he never seemed like that kind of guy though

excellent!

But is not the Dr herself planning to do work in the crown? Prefer to spend a few more bucks on the PRPj than ruin my health with medication if that is ok for you

It is a bit disappointing to see that Finansteride did not do its job in the crown. That is where it is supposed to work best. The front still looks ok. so leave the front alone and work on the crown. you gotta think long term man and not waste grafts now on the front.

is not he with Tillman now ?

you are concerned about temporary or permanent shockloss? I would say in your case shockloss is probably of a lesser concern. Because you are over 30 with good hair otherwise and transplanting into blank areas. If you go to a reputable surgeon who is used to operate theses case without propecia.Some degree of temporary shockloss is likely to occur of course. while I can undertand your desire for the HT, at the end it is also a risks/benefit decision. Your hair looks still good and if you were 5-10 years from now you would not probably even consider a HT. It is your call

why?

Hi I would estimate between 1500-2000 grafts? Did you receive and estimate? It is not clear what concerns you most: Is it that you will need continous surgeries or that you may not have enough donor hair for those surgeries?Because on the first point, it is clear that you will have continous surgeries as hair loss os a life long progression. So you are taking a long term commitment. On the second point, you may very well have enough donor hair for those surgeries given you age, family history and hair loss pattern I have always been of the belief that for this type of case, the best age is beginning of 40s and not 30s, liek myself now. Because at that moment there you have even more certaintly and need less surgeries.

generally no!

I like your approach for the conservative hairline, that is being smart. I am not a big fan of Ferreira who tends to go aggressive on hairlines. But this is a long term game.

I was there many times. Bruxelles is really kind of an ugly city

In the pre consultation, it should be agreed what will done during surgery and the surgeon should generally stick to that during surgery. It is important there is good communication between the surgeon and the patient.

Hair is stable. you do not need a HT. Benefits would be so marginal that outside yourself barely anybody would notice.

I see a lot of good results from this Dr. I really like that he does not use up too many grafts, that is so important long terms.

you still seem very young. unfortuntaley you probably must commit to medication now.

not sure what is going trhough your head but surgery seems unncessary. just a waste of grafts

in my opinion yes. it does not affect the treatment

this is great for 6 months

Hey, I still think that in a lot of higher NW cases the density is subpar. Just not enough hair in hair back. It is what it is. Everybody better have realstic expectations and not rely too much on some of these clinic's posted pics. Patients gotta work with topic or XX like to cover up some half ass coverage.
