  1. Hi, there, I went to a specialist in Belgium, who told me that removing the grafts leaves scars, and that he could not re-implant where the grafts were removed. I just don't get it. Can we normally put grafts on areas of grafts removed by laser or FUE? It was my only hope.
  2. Hello Is it possible to implant new, better oriented hair in the area where it was removed?
  3. Hi, friends, I did a 2500 graft transplant 1 and a half years ago, and I have the grafts that are misaligned and pluggy. I wanted to remove 500-600 of them and I was always told that it was possible to extract them and put them elsewhere, and implant new hair, but a specialist in Belgium told me this month that it was bound to leave scars, and that new hair could not be put in. I'm demoralized, it was my only hope. I don't understand, they talk about repair, but have there ever been cases of successful repair or extraction of grafts? Can I remove it with a laser or does it leave so many scars? I'm at the end of my rope
  4. Thank you for your advice. Concerning the minoxidil, would you advise me to increase it to 5mg? Is it much more effective? I'm also thinking of switching to topical fina but with these two changes I'm afraid of a lot of shedding. As for the repair, yes, I'm planning to go to a specialist. But I'm wondering what's the point of correcting when I've got a diffuse at 25, and in 10 years' time I may have nothing left. I can’t even go out I also use a small brush to massage the scalp. When I use it, I lose about 150 miniaturized fine hairs. Should I continue because it's good for growth? Or not?
  5. I hope so. But I'll opt for the topical form instead. But for transplanted hair, is it possible to remove at least the temples? I can't see myself staying with this for the rest of my life.
  6. Thank you for your advice To tell the truth, I think I'm having problems with morning erections with finasteride, I'm thinking of switching to the topical form to stay on the long term. Im afraid of shedding, i had a big shedding when i started medications. Here are some photos just after the transplant, and one at 4 months. The hair is straight up, of poor quality. I don't know if they can be removed, but I've already been told on this forum that it leaves scars, and other people tell me it doesn't. In the meantime, it's fallen a lot on the middle.
  7. It's very hard, my friend... before the transplant, I had lost the gulfs and the frontal line, but in 1 and a half years, it has progressed enormously, so fast that I'm thinking of a tellogen efluvium. The front hair is straight up, of poor quality, and it falls out everywhere. I don't even know where to start, repairing my graft or waiting a while.
  8. Hello forum, I am now 5 months on oral minoxidil 2.5mg, and 6 months on finasteride 0.5mg daily. The hair loss has slowed down, but there is still a shedding of very miniaturized hair. On the photos, dry hair looks like there are no holes (even if I feel a huge lack of density), but wet hair is a disaster. I'm a bit disappointed with the medication, I was expecting better results. I also want to remove 600-800 grafts because the front grafts are very thick plugs that frizz. I also have a problem: all my hair is extremely dry and dull. Could this be due to a TE? Or a lack of vitamin D? Thanks friends
  9. Hello forum, Is there an effective solution to improve the quality of transplanted and non-transplanted hair? I did a 2500 graft a year and a half ago, and I think the texture is different because of bad practitioners. But as for the rest of my hair, it is extremely fine, damaged, rough, and dry, without life. I have a diffuser, and I was wondering how to improve the quality. I've been on oral minoxidil 2.5 mg, and finasteride 0.25mg for 4 months, but it hasn't changed anything.
  10. Yes I'm sharing more photos with you. I can't keep them long, because I find they don't blend with the rest of the hair for two reasons. 1) The hair is misaligned 2) Since my transplant 1 year ago, I have lost a lot of hair in the middle, just behind the transplant. In only 1 year, the whole of my hair has become thinner, and is of poor quality. I hope that with the medication it will get better. I'm on 4 months of finasteride 0.5mg per day, and 3 and a half months of oral minoxidil 2.5mg per day, and after a huge shedding, the hair loss has slowed down. I am now hoping for regrowth, or thickening of the rest. Do you think I have a chance? I'm barely 25 years old, and I've been psychologically devastated for a year now
  11. I see thank you, but on the one hand, extracting them and then re-implanting them saves my donor area a bit. I have already used 2500 grafts at 25 years old, (even if I think they used 2000), and I am very afraid that I will not have enough for the future
  12. It's less obvious in pictures than in real life, but yes, I've already had a lot of comments about my hair. In addition to the problematic direction, the appearance of the transplanted hair is a bit frizzy, the follicles must have been damaged. Do you have any pictures of the scars left by the removal? Because I am even more confused than before. As far as finasteride is concerned, I have a loss of erection in the morning, but I am not ready to stop it, because I have a diffuse with a very high rate of fall
  13. The hair does not go down. It is straight and up. When it is long, it naturally falls back, leaving a lack of density in front. On the temples, it is in any direction. In addition, the front line is pluggy.
  14. You reassure me so much, thank you for your answers. In reality there is a "wave" effect that I don't like at all because the hair goes back.
  15. Thanks ! But bisanga and mwamba are equivalent for removal yes ? Or mwamba can extract more grafts
  16. Hello the forum, First of all I thank each of you who take the time to answer my questions, for this subject or for another, because it helps me a lot. I am 25 years old, and I have done a bad hair transplant of 2500 grafts (maybe 2000) 1 year and a half ago, the front line is pluggy, low, and almost all the hair is misaligned. does electrolyse leave scars ? Is it possible to extract at least 800? I have seen that it leaves scars, and I have never seen a removal of 800 grafts. Can implanting new hair in the middle and in the hairline camouflage it well? I am on oral finasteride and oral minoxidil because of dramatic hair loss. Please, I need your advice, because psychologically it is hard.
  17. To tell the truth, I haven't had a spontaneous erection during the day for 3 months It's true that I don't do sports and that I go to bed late, but I think it's due to the finasteride. Thank you for your advice, I will listen to it. listen to them I really don't want to stop taking finasteride because I have a difuse, and I already had a transplant that failed and it hurt me a lot psychologically
  18. I see.. thanks. my middle is destroyed because last 6 months i stopped topical minoxidil About fin, i have again loss of wood, it can desapear after few months ?
  19. Hi forum ! I am on oral minox 2.5 mg per day, and 0,5mg finasteride since 3,5 months. After an impressive shedding, he is just slowing since 3 weeks. i have 0 regrowth, can i hope regrowth ? Or should i switch to 5mg minoxidil. I have a big diffuse with loss of 40% of density in last year, and have already a bad transplant
  20. I have the same issues and same question.. Now its better for you ?
  21. Yes, but I've heard that it's often nocebo, and that at worst, after a few months the side effects go away. So I don't know
  22. The shedding begin to stop. I don’t know what to do
