LookMaxx replied to Gokuhairline's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
He got screwed in the ring too so no surprise there lol Yeah expensive clinic doesn’t mean good result unfortunately in HT industry. -
Best haircut for retrograde alopecia?
LookMaxx replied to Kaelthost's topic in Open Hair Loss Topics
Grow your hair long. That’s what I did but then again, never was a fan of skin fades probably because I had a natural permanent skin fade hahaha -
Hair transplant result at 8.5 months
LookMaxx replied to garry singh's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
Which clinic? Seems about right for 2k grafts to me. Also Minoxidil could be masking the results as well, those vellus hairs could be native hair popping up from minoxidil rather than transplanted hairs. This is why Minoxidil after HT shouldn’t be used, at least not on HT region if you want to judge the Ht properly -
Sure but it’s still 2k grafts which would’ve made some difference somewhere. There appears to be very small difference between his before and after pics.

It’s not inappropriate comment, definitely not very. But OK, you’re doing a good work in your mind and I appreciate that 👍

LookMaxx replied to bald's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers

Go to a hair stylist, he can make it look how you want it -
XYONHealth Partnership and Announcement
LookMaxx replied to Melvin- Admin's topic in Hair Loss Drugs
This is great news. I quickly skimmed through the article and seems like this formulation reduces absorption of fin into bloodstream which is fantastic. May even require less frequent dosing if the gel is slow release and stays active on scalp for longer periods. -
Chill bro, BDD isn’t some “oh he’s crazy psycho” disorder. I would imagine all of us suffer from it for some part of our body to some degree. It’s not disrespectful at all. You’re overreacting a bit.

Dr Koray Erdogan- ASMED Clinic 3243 Grafts FUE 25/11/2020
LookMaxx replied to IRE90LARK's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
Yeah, obviously if they offer a refund that would be the best but I would be really surprised if that happens. From what I heard Erdogan used to be really great and that’s where all the old recommendations are from then he just scaled his operation up to like high class hairmill lol, the video tour JT did of his clinic, it’s the most beautiful clinic I have seen for a HT clinic. Well, that’s the thing about hairmills. It’s a lottery and the result depends on which techs get to operate on you. Your friends won the lottery it seems, you didn’t -
When should you start dutasteride?
LookMaxx replied to mafpe's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
That’s exactly it. You get the girl but if you can’t do much with that, what’s the point 😂 -
Oh, I know it would’ve been terrible for you going through that. Sorry that was bit insensitive of me. I guess the positive is that the density seem OK for the number of grafts implanted. Maybe you can grow your hairs out long and it would be better. Shorter hair definitely don’t look that great or hard to style.

You have very valid points, having as many doctors in many locations is needed for patients especially when the wait times are ridiculous for so many of these doctors. Not just that, the money they charge too. Clearly the supply demand is working in their favour and they’re taking full advantage of it. But I have noticed Melvin really has a lot of patience and I admire the way he moderates/administers the forum as someone who has experience running forums, I don’t display such patience. So if Melvin banned a good doctor (?) like him, it wouldn’t have been a light decision. I think it’s easy to forget that just because surgeons are great at HT doesn’t mean they’re great human beings too. As you spend time here, you start to understand that how a surgeon is as a person is a different thing than how his skills as a surgeon. Dr House was a d1ck but he was great doctor 😄

Dr Koray Erdogan- ASMED Clinic 3243 Grafts FUE 25/11/2020
LookMaxx replied to IRE90LARK's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
This is perfect example of why tools don’t matter but the hand that wields those tool does. You would drool over the quality of the tools that asmed uses, it’s really some high class stuff but useless at hands of techs. I guess the positive is it’s not that terrible of a result and will require a few more grafts to fill in the gaps/density. What I mean is it’s not the only elite super expensive surgeon can repair terrible result, any competent non-hairmill surgeon will fix you right up. Shame 3200 grafts could’ve been incredible density for your level of loss but it’s a hairmill after all. Just forget about the clinic or touch ups or whatever. Refund is obviously out of the question, I haven’t seen elite doctors offer free touch ups much less refunds, this is a hairmill after all and I would be surprised if any sort of that happens. Even if they offer free touch up, are you going to take it?? Of course not The next clinic you choose please stay away from hairmills. Any doctor from this forum recommended list will be good enough to have 90% graft survival and nicely plant few hairs in the gaps. -
When should you start dutasteride?
LookMaxx replied to mafpe's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
I used 0.2-0.5mg finasteride every other day for two years, near the end of 2 years I would take it after 3 or 4 days ( twice a week ) because I didn’t care or would forget. Maintained hairs well and had thickening as well. I am quite surprised people say fin doesn’t work when I took it so low dose and infrequent and my hairloss is aggressive yet it worked, I lost so much hair in just 40+ days that I am fin free. I don’t consider dutasteride an option. No way. Maybe topically but there has to be large scale double blinded placebo controlled randomised proper trials that show dutasteride doesn’t get absorbed into bloodstream at all. -
I see what you mean about the comb over, it’s kind of funny 😆, sorry I had a laugh imagining him groaning and grunting for an hour while implanting hairs. Sounds like a terrible experience and the hairline is funny like that done by crap hairmill. Maybe he was having a bad day or just didn’t like you. I don’t know why else would a doctor show his annoyance verbally for an hour. I am sure no doctor enjoys implanting hairs as its menial boring work but they hide their annoyance. Maybe you can use hair spray to tame those wild hairs

my results + should i switch to oral minoxidil?
LookMaxx replied to demezz2's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
I don’t see a difference ? The before pics don’t show any hairloss. -
In other words BDD ( Body dysmorphic disorder ) It can make the situation look worse to the sufferer than to the outside world.
