  1. Hey all, so it’s the end of the road for this thread as I am here now posting my final 12-month results photos. I have been completely off minoxidil for the last 2 months and occasionally use Pura d’Or to shampoo the hair. I want to thank everyone for their feedback and motivation during this incredible journey and wish everyone who is considering having a transplant much success. Based on the final photos, I am sure many will agree this is a transplant worthy of publicity on the Hair Restoration Network Instagram page, however as we know that is unlikely to happen I also want to thank @ASMEDMANUALFUE for doing a fantastic job, especially where no finasteride was involved (yes, I know this surprised you too!) I am sure people will agree this is an incredible home run , one of the best seen on this forum. Tagging the crowd who followed this thread and gave much needed feedback and support! Finally, am also tagging @Melvin- Moderator I realize you probably had to distance yourself from Asmed related posts but you should be aware that the clinic still produces great results . Proudly No Fin, just a little Min… (ps ignore the back of shirt stains, probably hair dye :)) @Gatsby @BaldV @Navthedon @Pbaird98 @Gramatik @Aus1980 @Jackhair @StillAlive @Jackdaniels @davidn @ITA @JayLDD @botchedguy95 @jerseyman @BRITA-XL
  2. Photo taken last night by my better half.. not a bad angle!
  3. Hit the 10 month mark over the weekend and am including photos with various lighting . Overall the hair has filled in nicely in the last month and the few gaps in the back are pretty much gone . One interesting feedback I am getting is hairline doesn’t look even, but wonder if that is just a function of the way the hair is brushed to the side . Am starting to brush it back more straight line and it does look a bit more even .. anyone has experience targeting the hairline as a follow up transplant ? @Gatsby @Britalian @BaldGuy @botchedguy95 @Jackdaniels @Navthedon @Pbaird98 @Gramatik @Aus1980 @Jackhair @StillAlive @davidn @Melvin- Moderator
  4. FUT is usually recommended for candidates with weaker donor areas as it yields more hair to transplant and leaves more room for future surgeries. I recommend you get a consult done with one of the Thailand surgeons, they regularly perform FUT and can explain more. Dr. Pathomvich is on this forum, also Dr. Sorapong in Chiang Mai.
  5. @magn1fikusbased on the feedback on your donor area, it sounds like you could look into FUT (instead of FUE)...
  6. Barber. Pre-transplant, a cheap and cheerful barber who only used clippers (as there was not a use case for scissors given the lack of hair ). Now, a fancier barber who does a scissor cut and only uses clippers for the sides/back.
  7. Yep got a good result so no complaints. Though was a bit concerned after reading all the negativity about this clinic on here..
  8. had my procedure done at Asmed in April 2022. I paid the premium for Koray, but according to my understanding, he just handles the incisions so technicians understand how/where to place the grafts. the rest of the work is still done by others. Given how many botched cases Asmed has had since 2018, I am guessing it is because he was not involved in those procedures at all (unless I am missing something).
  9. @botchedguy95 are these the photos you are referring to?
  10. @honey21790I do not have the answer for that as it’s been 9 months only. But I don’t believe in taking finasteride.
  11. @botchedguy95Sure . Let me find and come back on that
  12. I’m sure it will @StillAlive. Though I don’t agree it’s time to graduate just yet. Plenty more info to share on other clinics, experiences etc ..
