How soon after a HT can someone sunbath to get a tan with a backwards baseball cap on in a way that it covers the hairline but the face gets the sun exposure? This would involve sweating

Of course you can my friend, you might want to ask the nurses for help while you're at it...

Is the row implantation of De Freitas a big negative? His results are excellent of the most part and come to think of it it seems that Couto also kind of implants in rows What are the main problems with this?

I'd go with either De Freitas or Couto, although Couto's waiting time is too long

The best thing to do if this is a concern is to rent the hotel or airbnb for 2 weeks at the city where you get your surgery, arrive a day before surgery and have the place loaded with food for the upcoming 2 weeks, do your surgery and then stay indoors for a couple of weeks and then travel with a cap on since then it won't be a problem. If you are very self conscious about this the sight seeing won't be a priority.

Doesn't almost everyone has some inflammation to one degree or another? Even just basic dandruff or those with seborrheic dermatitis who have successful transplants and there are plenty would be considered to have inflammation How would you define inflammation in the scalp?

Very astute observations and I would tend to agree with the overall conclusion I have to mention that the event of skin discoloration takes place quite often to one degree or another in the case of the recipient area in hair transplantation, specially when the patient gets plenty of sun exposure before a few months go by Biopsies are very important to detect these things but let's not rule out the human element and the different interpretations by different Dr's of the same results, as has happened far too many times, unless in cases that are extremely clear and straightforward

Ok it makes sense now Since you had it, how did you treated it? Any success?

Interesting, where did you get this from? From what I read in various sources, it seems that one of the main elements of scarring alopecias is that in the vast majority of cases once the hair falls it never grows back

This is very interesting Let me ask you something, do the hairs that fall because of LPP regrow a few months later??? Or once hairs fall because of LPP they never come back? What is your experience and opinion on this?

I have a theory that the pattern we have as newborns is the one after many years we are going to have as adults( after mpb kicks in or not) In a full circle kind of way

Thank you for proving my point, completely clueless you are buddy it appears that you have certain people you admire on a pedestal and refuse to think otherwise , whatever makes you happy :)

the OP is clueless Tom Cruise had a HT in 2006 , he had a bowl cut the whole year and you can see in 2007-8 the change see pic, and another after 2015 Despite his extreme self care, he's losing something as in the pic from 2 years ago below Henry Cavill had a HT in between 2020/21, here is a pic of him in 2019 and that's for a photoshoot(where they make everything look much better), look back over a decade and you see his recession growing, he's made a great choice by doing it Brad Pitt might had a very small one in the 2012/13 years when he was shaving his temporal points and having a middle part for a year or so, look at his brother, great hair but some minor recession As for meds, they are all on meds

Let me ask you something As the years went by and you lost the transplanted hairs, how was the process of losing them? a) Did the hairs suddenly fall and never grew back b) Did the hairs suddenly fall/grow/fall/grow/fall while getting thinner and miniaturized over many hair cycles over years until they stopped growing c)or did it happen in any other way?

I see a clear HT on Gosling, a bit on the hairline but still keeping it basically high as it was, but noticeable clear work on the temples/sides that make a big difference What you are saying is true regarding the light in movies and photoshoots making hair look much better in general as well as making a face look better hence why they spend millions on doing so and why in real life they never look like in movies/commercials , it's all heightened Yes I agree that's what it looks like

While what you say its very true oftentimes when it comes to marketing and photo alterations ,it does’t seem so in this case regarding the hairline Here is a snapshot of his last movie The Grey man and one of the tag heuer event, the hairline change is clearly is there

Ryan Gosling had a Hair Transplant the first pic is from lala land and the second one is from recent a tag heuer commercial while he was filming the grey man(hetook a “break” from acting in 2018) He had a higher hairline but good hair it’s the type of work that no one would notice as he has done it before hairloss was an issue

Bump for Rahal Representative

He sure has, many others with self destructing habits of booze and alcohol got a HT, it is both vanity and required for his profession and type of actor he is, Johnny Depp bald would have a very different career It seems like when you say him getting a HT “wouldn’t be like him” because it would imply self care and vanity, looks like he cares enough to always have his hair perfectly dyed and not showcasing a single gray hair being close to 60 whether he is working or not and keeps care of his van dyke goatee all the time besides staying at a certain weight range give or take Not bothering is Marlon Brando later on when he became a whale and had bad habits all around

Your first pic is from 2019 or so The time i’m referring as to when he did it was sometime in 2013-2014 While it is very subtle you will see him with long hair and something slightly off at the hairline for his standards in sone pics and you’ll see as well the temple points shaven two years after having filmed killing them softly as per your second pic As far as a clear sign such as ramsey, musk etc, pitt is extremely image conscious and is never seen unless while promoting something, he covered it up with the long middle parted hair

BP did his transplant before the Fury movie, he had great hair still but I guess slight maturing of the hairline wasn't acceptable, he was shaving his temple points for a good year or more before, and he was wearing long hair with a middle part for the time he was recovering

Thank You for the response That's what perhaps is happening, I was on Finasteride A for years before the transplant and during and 2 years after having done the transplant and everything worked perfectly 2 years after the HT or so I switched to Finasteride B and everything went down(only the transplanted hairs) for close to 2 years I've been on it I am just back with Finasteride A and just suffered a shed of some HT hairs that were growing back, we'll see what happens While I intend to be on Fin for good, How long would you give it to see if this was the cause?

Yeah you are correct, he was 41 and 42 in the pics I posted, he had the transplant later than I thought age wise

Here is JD at 31 and 32 years old, he had a transplant years later keeping his natural high hairline, while very natural you can see the sharp design over the last decade

That is the way it should be as per the donor dominance theory, which is not black and white, albeit not being the norm, countless of people have lost transplanted hair over years, specially the ones not medicated there are plenty of users on the spanish forum recuperar pelo an others mentioning it. I am all for hair transplants but this happens more than it thought of Let's put that aside an imagine I'm right, would this situation be possible?
