Background:had been on fin and minox since 21, now 26. Had good results with fin the first two to 4 years then have seen a pretty steady decline in density without much else obvious changing in my life during this period. I waited for about a year in the hopes it was just a regular shed that would subside and I'd recover from but this didn't seem to be the case. Started dut about the start of January and took it with 1mg fin daily for the first month then 0.5 ED for the remainder. I've still been shedding alot, don't think it's necessarily more than before but certainly not any less. Strangely I don't think my density has went down that much in this time? Please be honest with me though I can't tell if I'm in denial haha. Pictures in the gray dressing gown are before duta, yellow jacket are 3.5 months in

Reddit has some reviews from her I believe

Thanks for such a detailed response. I know its a strange situation. The only thing I could (maybe) attribute it to is that my pharmacy switched generic brands of fin. I know this shouldn't matter if the active ingredient is still 1mg, however, after some research there does seem to be other people who have experienced similar. After getting back to my other brand after a few months my hairless stopped almost immediately again. I'm currently on 1mg fin daily and 5% minoxidil foam twice a day, applied liberally all over not just the half a cap or whatever the recommended is. For microneedling does it need to be kept up to keep the results like min and fin or if will you retain the gains made after stopping? Tell me about it mate, couldn't have really picked a worse time haha. Hoping by the time I'm ready to pull the trigger it may have recovered slightly. What's you're option of Dr. Turan and Dr. Gur from FUEcapillar? I've been leaning towards Turan as he's trusted on here, reasonably priced and seems to have good reviews and a decent body of work to be seen on here. Aye I feel like I'm quite realistic when it comes to what I'm wanting. I'm not after a fully flat hairline, just something that doesn't look like the mcdonalds logo and a bit more density.

Thanks v much. I'm already on fin and min and have been for a few years. I made good progress (no scalp visible unless under v harsh light), however, I just underwent a pretty large shed so the density is definitely down from my normal. 26 from the UK, it was actually a British company but after reading their reviews I've decided my money would probably go further with one of the better Turkish clinics. The max I could spend would be £4,000 all in, but preferably closer to 3k. Have you any good recommendations for that range?

I'm just curious as to how many grafts I would roughly need to obtain a fuller hairline and more general density? Worried about tanking my donor area being quoted 3500+ for a first HT
