Pt's result looks outstanding. And like aw33 said, even with gel, the outcome is very pleasing. I bet if he used hair thickening pomade or some other form of styling product it would look even better! Kudos to H&W as always Sincerely, Empty Area

this looks great. Even aside for those that just want a buzzed down look, it almost rules out the "don't get a HT because of the scar" saying.

Great post maahong. That being said though..... are there any diffuse thinners here that care to elaborate? Such as when you got your HT, how long after more hair started to fall out, if it were the right decision, etc? I also remember reading in this forum that Propecia was great for diffuse thinners. Figured i'd throw this into the mix and see if anyone could elaborate on "why" it is great on diffusers? sincerely, Empty Area

sounds like you think its a bad idea overall for a diffuse thinner to get a HT Megatron?

thanks mikethedane. I just didn't know if i was just thinking too much into it. So it seems to make sense to others as well. Even then though, after waiting ten years or so, hopefully technology can speed up and we won't have the same options in ten years as we do now. I'm hoping that Propecia will halt the loss even longer. I try and stay optimistic :] Any other opinions???

So most of us know that getting a transplant at a younger age is a very speculated topic. We all know the outcome of such, in the case of losing more hair as you get older. I've read many topics with terms such as "devil horns" and that would be enough to scare me away...if all i had was a receding hair line. So i got to thinking.... Let's say someone with a diffuse pattern, with and even ammount of loss over the top portion of the scalp was to get a transplant, where the grafts were evenly distributed, no lowering of the hair line, and no dense packing. Even if the patient was to halt his loss, and maybe lose a little later, what would the outcome be? Seems the more i think about it, they would be back to square one, in a sense, right? While that patient would not be happy, it seems that one would rather that than "devil horns" or dense patches in specific areas, or just a full crown and no hair in the frontal part of the scalp. Could anyone elaborate or give some insight as to whether what i am stating is true, or whether i'm talking out of my behind? Sincerely, Empty Area

dear god..... that guy looked ridiculous!!!!

agreed with these guys. Though, i remember reading on various websites about anabolic steroids, and hair loss being listed as one of the possible side effects.

why is propecia out of the question? if i may ask

thanks sabby! i appreciate your comments :]

Bill, I in know way meant to be harsh or anything of the sort. I'm sorry if i came across as a butthead or what have you. Darren, i apologize if i came across really aggressive. I too am in your shoes, and i wouldn't attack anyone on these forums. I just meant that doing you research will help better narrow specific questions regarding your own personal loss, and situation. I guess i should re word my posts a little. sorry guys! -Sincerely, EmptyArea

ok dude, you need to read a bit on the other threads. First off, without pictures, no one will be able to recommend anything without knowing your degree of loss. Second, you said FUR? Im not sure whether you meant FUT or FUE for the procedure, but when you mention talks of travel being a problem and this and that, you aren't ready for a HT procedure. Anyone's who's anyone on this forum will tell you, again that travel and cost should NOT be a factor in choosing who to perform your procedure. Do a little more reading my friend and then come back with your ?'s Sincerely, Empty Area

I can't wait to have my procedure with Dr. Arocha! Though i only did an online consult with him, i feel very confident in his work. Everything from his approach, to his patient results, his staff, and great attitude has made me very optimistic and confident in choosing him. October cant come soon enough!
