  1. Dear all! This is my monthly update! I included 2 pic of my hair dry and other 2 with my hair wet. The area of baldness appear to be shrinking but I experienced some increased shedding which was very concerning for me! It started every time I wash my hair or rub the cream when I apply it, I see more hair in my fingertips! Fortunately it decreased gradually throughout the month and I was able to reach to my dermatologist through Xyon and she assured me that this is not uncommon and should get better gradually. I will continue the treatment and I hope my hair gets little bit thicker and the shedding stops!
  2. This is my monthly update! Not sure if it’s getting better, I feel my hair is about the same, it feels thin and I noticed same hair falling when I wash my hair! I am using Xyon daily and so far no side effects
  3. That’s a good point! it’s just I don’t like cut my hair too often! It can be little challenging to make sure every time it’s the exact hair cut but in general if there is significant hair growth then it should show regardless!
  4. Yes I do! I’m not a big fan of top min, it start to fall on my forehead and I find it difficult to be compliant! But this been going on for years now since I had hair loss! I’m considering oral min, but will do after finishing the year of Xyon to see the results
  5. It’s about time for monthly update! I notice some improvement in mid scalp area, however my hair is getting longer and I didn’t get a haircut which may camouflage the actual results! Also applying the gel isn’t easy especially with long hair, it get stuck in the hair which makes it harder to apply to the scalp!
  6. I’m pretty much just using Xyon at this point, I’m also taking Biotin supplements but that’s it! I was planning initially to use minoxidil topical daily but haven’t been consistent, maybe I apply it once every 2-3 days!
  7. Hello everyone! I am posting about a month update since I started using topical Xyon. What I like so far, It’s easier to apply because it’s a thick gel so it won’t start seeding to the forehead like topical minoxidil. However, since its a gel I feel its harder to cover all my scalp with just 1ml. I can use 2 ml every other day but I’m sticking with 1ml daily to keep the routine. I don’t feel my hair is getting thicker or fuller yet! It’s probably early to judge. In the pic below my hair is longer as I didn’t cut it since my last post! I will try to add a pic with my hair wet every time for objective reference
  8. So I got a reply from my dermatologist at Xyon! They mentioned it’s ok to use both but preferably to space them by couple of hours. Currently I’m using Xyon in the morning (it takes a bit longer to dry up) and I use minoxidil in the evening.
  9. You should consult your doctor for better evaluation. In general, Just make sure to check your blood pressure, it’s a small dose but basically it can lower blood pressure and that can lead to increase in heart rate a reflex (aka reflex Tachycardia).
  10. I wasn’t told that I can’t use topical minoxidil with Xyon! So far, I’m using them at different timings. One in the morning and other in the evening (both once a day). But I’ll reach out to my dermatologist through Xyon to ask about advice as well
  11. Hello everyone, I’m starting this thread as part of signing up to try topical Xyon Gel for 1 year to share my result and experience. I’m 35 years old with Norwood 5/6, I started having hair loss in my late 20’s but it was not until 2 years ago when I Niaz noticeable loss in crown and hairlines, I started using oral finasteride for over a year now, and I didn’t have any side effects but I didn’t feel it made any difference in my hair loss, I also use topical minoxidil but not too compliant with it! I had my first and only HT on May 2022 for crown and conservative hairline, I’m starting to see some results now as I’m heading to my fifth month. I had no transplant at all in my midscalp area! I decided to try Xyon with hope it will be effective in increasing the density in my midscalp mainly and hopefully with crown too! My current regimen will be daily topical finasteride (Xyon) and topical Minoxidil. I’ll be posting updates and pic every 1-2 months. Please feel free to ask any questions! I’m attaching recent pic prior to starting Xyon for reference. Disclosure: I’m participating in a 12 month Xyon campaign in which I share my unbiased and honest experience along with follow up pictures and I’ll be getting the supply for free throughout my 1 year journey!
  12. I agree 100%! Price is a huge factor and even people say save for 2 or 3 years and go to top notch doctor isn’t always justified! As OP mentioned there are a lot other family/personal responsibilities that come into the pic! Very few people would be willing to spend $ 20-30k USD or more for HT! I think for OP would an affordable surgeon do a good job and you would look better than how it looks now? My simple answer is most likely yes! Your donor density seems great and your baldness isn’t extreme! With good and affordable surgeon you should have a good result! I find it relatively lacking here is affordable surgeon recommendation!
  13. Well, I agree that this isn’t a public service that obligate the moderator to disclose his salary or financial gain! However, I would like to make 2 points here: 1- For full transparency then financial disclosure should be made, amount of payments doesn’t have to be exactly accurate but members should get an idea, ie do clinic pay $100’s or $1000’s or more to be recommended here! 2- The recommendation list here isn’t at all INCLUSIVE, this need to be crystal clear! ie there might be very well surgeons out there that isn’t recommended here just because they don’t pay their fees??! Finally, I really appreciate anyone’s effort to share their honest and unbiased review/experience with HT as this can be the only true reference for potential patients!
  14. Thank you. Yes it started to improve, I used some benzoyl peroxide shampoo and it been getting noticeably better!
  15. Yes Aloe Vera helped, it smelled weird though! I feel my itchiness improved after 10-12 days post HT
