  1. So it would appear there is no reason why I can't have 3 of them? The surgeon seemed to think the harvested grafts would "drop" significantly. But i have no issue's with a tight scalp in fact after my second I had no pain with my scalp being tight. After the first one I certainly had a tight scalp feeling but it dissappered after a month or 2.
  2. I was wondering If anyone here had 3 FUT transplant's, I have a 3rd surgery scheduled. The FUT doesn't really impact my existing hair I mean isn't even slightly impacting it. I dont really wanna have FUE and have my entire hair structure compromised & generally thinned out with this procedure on my 3rd surgery (the surgeon recomended FUE).
  3. Well I am regretting it now. Going for my second transplant & they said unlikely I will get it totally fixed. If I took finasteride earlier I'd probably be just fine with 2 transplants I would certainly hope. Far less coverage needed. But Yeah it wasn't the best idea to delay it so long.
  4. I'm about 50 and i never got on finasteride, i finally got a hair transplant. But the coverage would of been so so so much less if i had tried it so much earlier in life. I feel like i could of gone through my 40's with much better hair if I got on this when i was 30 or so. My hair deteriorated rapidly though my 40's looking at pics, you have to really question what the hell i was thinking not slowing it down. I guess we shall never know but i feel like I could have really prevented the damage that occurred leaving it untreated.
  5. Could you recommend a place to get topical dutasteride?
  6. This confused me some. I thought dutasteride was used in place of Oral minoxidil. This sounds like it's a replacement for finasteride. Would you use Dutasteride and Oral Minoxidil together? Or Dutasteride and Finasteride together?
  7. I'm looking for a mix of these two topicals. All i'm having luck finding is the dumb subscription based stuff like Happy head. I'm sure someone on here could direct me to a better place? to purchase...
  8. Yes i been doing micro needling. Not alot of success. I just started Oral Minoxidil. I was told by my doctors that this had the best chance of success. For some reason this was one of the first areas i had real trouble. It's along the bottom and a bit thin around top of my ears to the temple in a thin strip. I was under the impression that fixing it with topical Minoxodil doesn't work well it that area but i haven't tried it. I will certainly post some success if i have it with oral minoxodil. Hopefully someone had some success regrowing in this area.
  9. I have substantial hair loss on back of my scalp along the bottom collar line. I haven't used much topical attempts at it. Anyone have any success growing hair there?
  10. I am on first week of starting finasteride taking 1mg Mon/ wens/ Friday Is this a normal routine for most people? Or do most use it daily?
  11. How long after hair transplant did you use any tropical help solution's. Trying to get some idea from past experience. I was using on the crown some solution's (no donor in that area) but I've help off doing much at this point I'm 2 weeks out. and i have no idea when minoxidil would or should be used in transplanted area.
  12. I was wondering if anyone who has used this experience any color pigmentation return? I have a many grey hairs in my beard it would be great if it could somehow help that I far far less in my hair just some mild started at temple area. but i read in comments on Youtube some were experiencing color pigmentation return in their hair.
  13. I have a Mito Light I use daily for my skin & Health. I not really interested in a debate on effectiveness of Low laser red light. I am in a hair forum and wonder which of the 3 options is the best to use on the top of my head. For Mito pro we have red light or (nir) Near red light or both. some stats LEDs: 50% Red and 50% Near Infrared (NIR) LED Peak Wavelengths: 25% 630nm, 25% 660nm, 25% 830nm, 25% 850nm
  14. I had this very same question My scar is very sore I'm much more inclined to help it heal than to do nothing.
  15. My Doctor said some patients have growth at 18 months it's individual dependent.
  16. fertilizer for the grafts. I know about PRP results. But i was more considering it helping the survival rate of the grafts based on information he stated.
  17. I was watching an interesting video yesterday from Sam Lam Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Acell Technology to Improve Hair Transplant Results. I am wondering if anyone tried it with a transplant? He says it acts like a fertilizer and helps improve graft survival rate. I inquired about A-cell pre-surgery and doctor stated it was more for FUE healing.
  18. Thank you sir. That was exactly what i was worried about. I didn't do it yet. I been just spraying distilled water still on day 4 to try and slow the scabbing. I was pretty religious about doing it every 30 mins the first 48 hours. day 3 at night my scalp started to get first signs of being itchy. Today day 4 my scar & sutures are very sore.
  19. I seen a hair restoration place suggest this yesterday. I can't recall so much which one as i was in quite a deep dive. To use aquaphor to aid in healing. Anyone ever use this method. Had my grafts put in on monday 11/7 so they are quite secure now. I seen also this from Northwest hair restoration. Using copper peptides to aid in wound healing. from the website a spritz infused with copper peptides that aid in healing and help keep the area moisturized. Anyone try this? Scar is really sore today i had FUT procedure. Feels like someone pulling my hair as the scalp is much tighter.
