  1. Upadate after nearly 8.5 months. I have been with job and been going through some rough times personally so haven't updated for a long time. But nevertheless do let me know your thoughts. I am upgrading my stack as well with 1mm Microneedling each 2 weeks and nizoral twice a week to improve my results over the course of next 6 months or so. I am thankful to this community in helping recover my hair to a point i never thought i would come to.
  2. @GatsbyThank you for the response. I do understand surgery should be the last option. I am quite thrilled by the results too. Hopefully my hairline improves too. I see small baby hairs already and a long way to go after this. Hopefully i reach a stage where i won't need a HT for 6-7 years. Then will consider may be.
  3. 3.5 months update. I think there is some improvement from where i started. I would love your insights on this. Regimen has been the same but i am applying minoxidil once daily lately.
  4. Kinda off topic but is it natural for uneven growth. Like the left side grows a bit faster than the right side or vice versa?
  5. I see a lot of mention of Brad Pitt's hairline. Ever seen Shah Rukh Khan's hairline. He is 57 , regular smoker and sleeps really less. He has a teenage hairline even now. It's all your genes. I don't think I ever had his kind of hair even in my teen years.
  6. Man you going to have a great result if it turns out well. That hairline is sick.
  7. @THE TRUTH I am on finasteride and topical minoxidil for 1.5 months. Nothing has happened till now. Fortunately i have no sides. I was worried i might have regtrograde. The Dermatologist i visited said my donor is really good but i don't know I feel the sides are dipping may be. I have diffused thinning all over scalp especially my left side of the mid scalp. Thank you for the reply.
  8. After looking at the recent pictures of Elon without clothes. I am convinced if you are rich hair no hair physique, height etc are all pointless.
  9. Is it thickening of thinning hairs or regrowth of hairs on bald areas?
  10. @New_Barnet_Please Do take consultation with a good doctor and move forward with the regime he suggests.Also in none of my replies i mentioned about side effects. I made a point regarding echo and ECG because the drug is mainly used for hypertension which in turns affects your heart health. That's all. In no way i am trying to say that oral Minoxidil will cause harm in everyone. It's a choice of the pateint at the end of the day.
  11. @New_Barnet_PleaseI gave a suggestion. There is nothing wrong with doing echo and ECG just to be safe. 5mg Oral minoxidil is a drug for Hypertension. Moreover oral Minoxidil is yet to be FDA approved. Now in no way i am saying don't use it. All i am trying to say is use it with caution. That's all. If it is working for you nobody is stopping you from taking it. Good luck.
  12. Oral Minoxidil is not a replacement to Oral Finasteride or dutasteride. The drug is for hypertension. Yes it does work in hair regrowth but that's should not force you to use it. Use the topical Minoxidil first for 6months and then if you don't see any positive response. Consult a Cardiologist get you echo and ECG done and if everything comes fine go for oral Minoxidil. At the same time get your echo and ECG done every month to check your heart and your overall health. That would be my suggestion for anyone considering oral Minoxidil.
  13. Doubles and triples are found in the hairline because doctors aren't diligent. All HT surgeons know that hairline is only singles ,there might be some doubles but very few. But while doing a HT they tend to put density over naturalness which in turn result in doubles or triples in the hairline. Also magnification too. Now few doubles will not necessarily look bad but if the hairline is filled with doubles and triples it will give a very artificial and pluggy appearance.
  14. You should try to use medications first and then go for transplant. Medications in most cases work and can definitely lower your graft count. This in turn saves you grafts and gives you chances to do more surgeries if you ever decide to get of off medications. Try finasteride and topical Minoxidil for atleast 6-8 months then go for a HT. In your case i think depending on the density you want you would need near about 2000 Grafts but that could reduce if medications work well for you. Cheers.
  15. @John1991Even i have seen normal part in certain results but most results have hair spiked upwards. Not only that even with parting it doesn't look as close to what natural parting looks to be very honest.
  16. @JoselitoElGalloThat's exactly my assumption as well. Add to that styling options are limited too.
  17. 90% of transplant results seem to hairs that mostly flow upward even in the best hands. Why so? Just curious.
