Petchski

My good night!

Don't you have a trading standards in US, or an American equivalent that can shut these shyters down and fine them?

and a special thanks to you Petchski, for saying I don't look 40. I'm going to take that as "you look younger", even if you meant otherwise. thanks!

You took it right

Sure, once the hair has grown in you can, and many do

Looks good, a nice feminine hairline you got there. You don't look 40 either.

This is good timing for me as I was recently quoted $3.50/graft for 1500 grafts in the Hartford/CT area.

 

In December I met a/ Bosley rep who quoted me $5.50 "end of the year special" if I got it done by 2008.

 

What's normal for this amount of grafts? Should I be concerned?

Be very concerned, any HT clinic offering 'special offers' etc are always untrustworthy...can't you see that that is a sales technique? the top docs don't need to stoop so low

Guys can go in to a prolonged depression when they realise they are going bald, this could potentially drive away any partner...

Just to add to this thread...

I believe women do like taller men, as opposed to tall men... what i have not seen mentioned is the fact that it is relative. Women like men to be taller than them, many women are 5'7 and under, as long as your a few inches taller or as tall, then there is not really a big problem.

Looks good Predator, and you're not even at month 5 or 6, Dude, you have plenty of regrowth to come!

Hey Martinnyc, do you have any pics?

Excellent, good choice in Dr, did you take any pics at all?

Gud luck adam, keep us informed!

You just push upwards, no need to be overly forceful.

Started doing mine now

I've seen Dr Umar soften someone's hairline with nape hair before, it looked very good. You're in good hands abe

My surgery is in 3 weeks and i've not really made much of a start of it, is it essential for 1st timers?

DHT is the main cause of hairloss, if you have problems taking fin then you need a topical anti androgen.

Proxiphen has minox, spiro (anti androgen) SOD, retin a

you could try promox, which is fin and minox i believe, but topical or go for flurdil, xandrox15plus...

Basically you need a topical anti androgen, you'll have to look the rest up.

Word up yo,

Alright you got me, i'm no badass. I'm due for surgery in a few weeks time and obviously apprehensive but looking forward to getting it done at the same time, but i realised i don't actually know what the failure rate is with H/T's?

I know it's a subjective question, if you go to a hair mill your chances of failure, and by that i mean no to poor growth, are increased, but i'm going to a coalition doc, so what are the chances of poor growth as a percentage?

Anyone care to indulge me?

Your new pics don't look to great growth wise unfortunately. You look to have aggressive hairloss, no doubt you have lost a lot of native hair since as your not on fin...

Have you banged your head or scratched at your head much? Hopefully your are a very slow grower

Just looks lime pimples to me, which is not uncommon.

If you look up bad hair transplants or repair transplants in google you'll find some, it looks like old acne pock marks

You can try proxiphen, revivogen, saw palmetto, use nizoral shampoo. There are other products you can use to keep your hair aside from propecia, just not as convenient as popping a pill

It's not looking to good unfortunately, who did you use?

Who did you use for your transplant john?

How long have you been taking propecia....? if your on the 6 month, shedding is not uncommon

Makes sense, would have been a bit specialised otherwise, as opposed to more general.

Good luck with it

Hey jojo, have you thought about other treatments instead of propecia, nizoral shampoo, proxiphen, revivogen etc... xandrox 15 plus

So Foundation,what do you take now to tackle DHT?

I think Brucie looked better with hair personally, but it didn't effect his appeal to the opposite sex, so no real damage done you could say
