day 30 you should not have any scab left unless they are new wound, or you had complications which prevents you from having them all removed at latest end of week 2. the hair coming off are normal, most of transplanted hair needs to come off first before beginning their regrowth. you need to add more pressure on your massaging-removing the scabs, you're most likely just nudging them instead of trying to actively massaging them to remove the scabs.

i think most aren't sure how credible / skillful dr yaman's tech are, since now he has been increasing the quantity of tech and surgery / day compared to back then. then there's the temple issue on several members, with wrong implantation angle. iirc design and incision is usually done by the dr, so this could be an error by the dr himself. one case might be an outlier, but there were repeat, so many members are cowed. especially those who has been vocal in saying dr yaman did great. HT usually needs at least several months to judge their result, and with less people coming up with dr yaman's work, no one can really say how he performs now, other than that there are some mishaps back then which is a blot to his otherwise good rep.

the angle doesn't tell anyone much, pretty hard to say accurately if it's good or not. half half on the clinic issue. one part is that tbh the clinic doesn't matter in hairline drawing, a good drawing design is good, but it's not just about lines. density, angling, line meaning, differs from surgeon to surgeon, the last thing anyone who advised or agreed with you need, is that anyone blaming them when they don't have all the information should things go south. the other part is that if the we know the clnic experience and their prior work, it's pretty easy to be assured if the said designer know what they are doing, EVEN if the drawing seems unorthodox, due to his experience and prior results, in which end up producing natural results.

can try to contact dr demirsoy's agent or FUEcapilars, although they might not have short notice availability unless someone canceled. they do have pretty short queue compared to top docs though, so there's a chance.

No they can flow down. It wont melt and become a sludge, but more like sweats dotted with tons of black powder. You can look up on melvin's video on how he apply a few tools, like dermatch, he even have one way to swim while looking like having full coverage.

he did have a somewhat of finasteride equivalent iirc? xyon, unless i'm wrong. for me it HT comes to the pricing/how affordable it is for YOU, how it ages, and are you fine with bald look, or if you are fine with losing the HT hair down the years. if you life very comfortably financially, and this won't make a dent, i say why not as you're just buying hair for set amount of years (if it even falls). only reason not to is if they will develop hair loss cure (which is unlikely in our lifetime), or it would strain you financially. this is the premise with not taking the meds. if you are able to take the meds tho, despite the possibility of still losing the HT hairs, they are minimalized.

depend really... finas is "more effective" in preventing baldness as it halts or dams the process significantly. meanwhile minox simply thicken your hair, and giving more bloodflow, making it healthier and more likely to "survive". hairs affected will still likely balds though, it just take a while longer. unless you are lucky enough that you're not supposed to bald soon or badly, it's best to take both meds.

uh... i suppose FUEcapilar plan to only fill the front and leave the scalp... probably. as for dr demirsoy, tbh i haven't seen him doing high NW, i also haven't seen many high NW from bicer as well. dr yaman, i have no idea of how well trained his techs are now, and yes a few months ago there was a lot of subpar works. the thing is with your budget there isn't much option... not to mention you being a high NW...

haven't heard bad things about FUEcapilar, and at near dr yaman's rate, the only two i know are rather "safe pick" are FUEcapilar, and dr.demirsoy. the 3 seems to have low queue wait too, which is a plus. not sure about FUEcapilar's lately though since they seem to have an influx after getting 'recommended' on the list

any brand is usually fine, and there is no one stop solution for baldness yet. the meds only holds your hairline as long as you are using it, there hasn't been any solution that let you retain your hair and not use any meds. the closest is a transplant, and chances are you could still lose them if you don't use meds. baldness can start happening to us at an early age, i myself have started shedding heavily and lose hair from 15 as well. his concern might or might not be warranted, but valid nonetheless. hopefully it's just temporary or stress induced instead of MPB, but it's still a possibility.

most likely stress or life factor, or you came into contact with something. had that much shed when i was younger daily, especially after stress periods. There might be some of the transplanted hair falling out but most likely mixed with native, probably more native than transplanted one.

not "strictly", but it is true. apparently anal lining is very absorbent, meaning even if it's hetero but doing anal sex, the risk is the same. thing is that gay men have sex very frequently compared to heteros, and they do it very freely. women are more careful with having sex everywhere, as it can demean them socially (applies to gay men, but less discrimination because many are doing it). not to mention, protection... i found out that gay men have sex without protection somewhat often. couple that with that they literally... f**k around... and tada, tons of HIV occurence. at least with women, protection are more prevalent due to risk of pregnancy, and the natural defense like alpha posted, which helps.

i know, thank you however for clarifying so that the community and more people could understand and stigmatize HIV less. HIV is somewhat of a boogeyman in many country. the problem lies with the people however, such as there is risk of human error on cleaning, or the patient themselves. if the patient doesnt take the med for some time, the viral load can become positive again, and sometime, people lies about their HIV status, due to fear and other reason. this is the human part. is it only horrible if it's compared to hitler and nobody else? i do know the HIV ratio is way skewed on gay men especially, seeing how... profilic they can be in unsafe sex. this is the paragraph why i said what i said. now in hindsight, i might have mistaken what you mean, as the quarantine part if we're just seeing it as quarantine is a vibale and good method of preventing spread of disease etc, which i agree. the problem lies with how the wording is before the quarantine sentence, and that combined with the sentence produce an implication, albeit not explicitly, intended or not. for this, i apologize if i misunderstood your wording. technicalities aside, you get infected for having unprotected sex with someone with a positive viral load. vaginal juice does NOT negate it, but yes it is somewhat acidic that it would kill many microorganism, and it would kill some amount of the virus, but not all which means it helps prevent but it's not that effective. HIV way more prevalent in gay man yes, because gay man seems to have sex way more freely, and what @The comeback king , and not using protection (maybe because they don't get pregnant and think it's fine to do it unprotected... like some people who swears by "pull out technique"). *edit on extrapolation of the vaginal juices... killing HIV

while i understand you're sympathetic to HIV patients, "need to have their clinic closed" is basically doing a cancel culture. even with proper sterilizing, it's a possible risk, either by negligence, or human error. even robots have error margin. i understand what you mean, but as a bussiness, most people would like to minimize the risk, for longevity of the work. there is also the worry of that if they're off meds, the patient themselves would be at risk, not to mention some doctors who doesn't know if the meds would cause complications on the surgery. if you're putting it that way, you'd be the same as the poster above me who simply put every HIV people in one basket, like how he categorize every people who has HIV have sex indiscriminately. heck from the last sentence, he'd want to make a concentration camp for people with HIV.

you're doubling the dose... you might still not be affected by the side effect, but doubling the dose means the chance of the side affecting you is more than double, as this isn't a "basic math" problem. are you stressed or having a different lifestyle for last past month? because it's likely that such shedding are triggered, rather than just occuring. you can up the dose, but i'd say to check if there are any other cause first. there are people who's saying that sometime fin just stopped working... if that is the case, then you should probably switch to dut instead.

seems like you've made your bed so... good luck man, i hope your result would be one of the good one.

i have gotten a few of these, and i can't pluck them too. but i notice some that popped out after a few weeks, and in return, i see new hair. it's possible that the follicle is in resting phase, and your stubble is just stuck, until new hair grows out and push out that "stubble". i'm not sure about OP's however, since he's already 7.5 months, but it's possible it's the same case. either way, there is not much we can do about it but hope and take care of it. hopefully it's just stuck on resting phase at the moment.

for my case though, the first day after the op, they sprayed my head with... saline solution probably? most likely same as the holding solution to "water down" the bleeding, leading to a cleaner head. d+1, i went again to the clinic for evaluation, with very gentle / light cleaning of the head, using running water (trickle volume, very gentle touching, only slight patting no brushing / dragging). d+3 and onward, i did the same, with lukewarm / slightly cold water + foamed shampoo to keep things clean + drying via cold setting hair dryer. it's best to leave your head alone for at least 3 days, so that the grafts are able to settle down and stick onto the made incision, but i don't think it's a deal breaker IF you know how to clean them very gently without damaging the grafts. like narmak said though, you might want to take a photo of the bleeding source, and check if the graft is still there. if it's still there, it might still survive, but if it's not there anymore, then probably you have lost a graft.

if you have a pic, that would help. if the blood is sourced from one of the grafts, you might have dislodged one, but otherwise probably you just cracked a scab open and blood flowed a lil bit. mine were cleaned pretty early too thats why most of the dr i went to have clean looking HT, the water applied is like having trickles of water through your head, very2 gently and slowly. try to have little to no pressure on them, especially for the first 3 days at least.

it is less dense than ideal, but it's not that bad either. thing is you're comparing it with your native hair, which is naturally way denser than most HT. you can try to glean what other people think, and if anyone is staring or noticing your new hairline, i think most people who aren't interested in HT wouldn't be able to tell

4 months update Most of the grafts have grown, at around 85-95% spot, i'd say. caveat is that the number of follicle seems to be different that what is implanted, as in, what should have been triple or quadruple, many seems to be double or even single. I do not know if in one graft, follicle grow differently or together. My hope is that they don't always grow together, which means not all of them has sprouted. this led to a somewhat sparse look, but i'm confident with enough length (probably 6/8cm) it will provide "enough" coverage, although it would look somewhat see through, it won't look like i'm balding badly, with proper styling and hair fiber, it shouldn't be noticeable for normal eyes. despite that, i am happy enough with the growth at the moment, since it's likely to improve. not to mention that most of the graft placement, at least a follicle survived, in which at this point i can confidently say the HT is a success (*bar some unsightly occurrence happens, or that they fall off later). i've started going out without a hat, and currently as long as i don't stand right below a light source, or room that is lightly but adequately lit, it's only a little thin but most people couldn't tell unless they are eyeing my hairline. pretty happy with my progress.

in my opinion, it's best to ask if it's safe to break the pill / tablet to take them in smaller size, and still take it orally. i'm not a medical worker, but as far as i know, most topical antibiotics are for skin problem, and they are usually only skin deep problem. maybe it would go systematically into your blood and body, but should there be any infection or telltale sign, such as pus/white spot on the grafts, it might not be able to penetrate deep enough to actually kill all the possible infection. I for one had several white spots, which could have become an infection if not for the regular cleaning/drying and antibiotic intake, so i'd advocate for it. do note that my opinion is not of a medically educated one, just from what i know, and what i experienced.

not sure how FUEcapilar pack the hairs, but either it's a problem with not packing enough, some graft not growing, or harsh lighting. it IS a bit less dense than usual 40/50 from a glance, but HT hairs are less dense compared to the native, so it's abit hard to tell... and he still have that redness in his head on month 8, which isn't usual. monetarily speaking though, i'd still say FUEcapilar is a good pick still, since from what i know, their pricing is basically competitive even with hair mills, or unknown docs. at least, i'd pick them over, always, as up to now... there isn't a bad case, yet, which gives a peace of mind. if you can afford better surgeons though, you should if this make you worry a lot. back then my pick are either dr.demirsoy or bicer, but bicer is pretty expensive nowadays. i didn't pick yaman due to them having 3 people a day, and as for FUEcapilar, they become more known from around month 5, i think, which by the time i made a booking, they wasn't well lauded yet.

don't think it does, if anything, most of the late / troubling growth i see in some cases are actually on the temple area, and in my experience, somehow the middle front area grows before my temporal. not sure why or how, but maybe it got something to do with balding pattern in which many men have a tuft or hair on front, or that temples recede first?

one of the downside of using topic if condition is humid, or you're sweating or got water on your head somehow. still beat looking like half bald though. i don't use topic for workout exactly because of this. on the topic, i don't think it's bad for your hair as so, but usually despite you shampooing/cleaning your hair from toppik, there would still be few powders left, this can stick to your pillow or any other surface. i'm not sure how they interact with your scalp, so it's possible to create buildup and create acne, especially if you don't clean it after the use, but i don't know about this one.
