people that dermaroll - how is it?
bear56 replied to zenmu's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
in my opinion, it is always best to start with the least harmful substance which i believe is minoxidil. if it does not work then move to the next product like finasteride which shows positive outcome for a lot of users but with the possibility of side effects. i believe that some users get poor results because of several factors: overall health, impatience ( not giving enough time for it to work), inconsistency ( skipping the dosage), incorrect application ( not clean the scalp properly, so that the solution can penetrate properly). but here is what i believe is what makes the difference. you need a stimulus if you want good results. for example take a bodybuilder if he would take a protein powder alone without working out, he would not stimulate the muscle to grow. maybe not the best comparison but you get my point. the stimulus for hair would be massage and or microneedling. it will not bring hair back that is gone long time ago but it can stimulate dormant hair to regrow and keep miniaturized hair alive and improve your overall hair structure. keep what you have regardless if you get a hair transplant or not. a hair transplant does not prevent your other hair form falling out. it only relocates your hair form the donor to the recipient site. so you can opt to take meds to keep it or follow the minoxidil/ microneedling and/or massage if it works for you. -

i wanted to do micro needling post op ht to the recipient area but since i did not get any response from people here on this forum with first hand experience, i opted not to do it to the freshly implanted hair. -

i did the entire top. sometimes the sides but you need to go to .5 mm for the sides. i did minoxidil right after. it all depends how you can tolerate it . you must monitor the scalp to make sure it does not get irritated. make sure you clean your scalp before you micro needle and always use a sterile cartridge. if you must reuse an old one you have to soak it in alcohol. i always used a new one. using microneedling plus minoxidil makes it 4-5x more potent. there is plenty of literature out there. i had to cut my hair every month and it got noticable thicker. i had fine hair grow that i had never seen before. you will start to see noticable results after 3-4 months. good luck! -

i did micro needling using a dermapen #8 prior to my ht for about 7 months. i used 1.5 mm depth at first which was quite painful especially in the frontal are where the skin layer is thinner. eventually i went down to 1 mm which was more tolerable. i also used 5% minoxidil in conjunction with microneedling the same day. suggested use is 24 hours afterwards to prevent skin irritation. i can definately say that my hair felt thicker after a few months and less shedding. -

the three months made quite a difference and u still have more months to come. excellent results !!! -
cocaine by itself can cause hair loss due to stress, nutritional deficiency. also since your ticker will be working overtime it can affect your heart. consider that you will receive anesthesia. if you are a repeat user you might want to address that problem first before even thinking about a hair transplant.

Small Dormant Hairs
bear56 replied to Testaccount9900's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
why would anyone use tweezers 5 months post op to remove hair. that sounds like a very bad idea. if it was not meant to be hair it will fall out by itself eventually. hairs don't grow all at the same time depending on the the phase they were in when they were transplanted. -
3- 4 months months is when the hair typically starts to grow. the hair is at first almost invisible( no color/no pigment), then over the next couple of months as it matures it will get thicker. also all implanted hair do not grow at the same time. they are at different phases. eventually the hair will synchronize which can take 12 months and longer. so i would definately expect your hair to thicken up. i think it looks very good already at this stage and will only get better and better from here on out.

how is prp applied during hair transplant? do they inject it prior to the hair transplant or do they bath the hair right after they remove it from the donor site and do all doctors use the same protocol.?
