I had my FUE surgery 5 weeks ago. Is there any expected benefit in using verteporfin now? And if so, how can I get my hands on it?

Thanks for the reply. That's reassuring to know.

Hi all,

Topical min has worked well for me since I started taking it five years ago, but I’m planning to come off it for 14 days (during the post-surgery healing process). What are people’s thoughts on taking a break from it for this long? Can I jump back on it and continue where I left off, or will I lose what I’ve maintained?

Thanks @Melvin- Moderator and @5BetaReductase for your replies. I appreciate it! I understand what it is now, but I'm still a little confused. Why would the concept of donor farming stop you from choosing Dr K? I'm booked in with him so was curious about that.

Matt, congratulations on your result. It’s crazy to me that konior filled in your crown like that with a little over 750 grafts. Others wouldn’t be able to get such a result with double that amount. Goes to show that #’s are only part of the equation.

 

Results like yours are what is tempting me to go with him but for another type of issue- donor restocking into areas of over harvesting. Thanks for sharing your story 

Absolutely. Unbelievable for the number of grafts.

May I ask what you mean by 'donor restocking into areas of over harvesting'? Sorry, I'm a bit of a novice, haha. Is there a reason why this would be an issue with Dr K specifically, as opposed to other surgeons?
