Hi @Melvin- Admin - what about if hair loss is at Norwood 7? With just a few miniaturised on mid scalp a d some normal hair maybe. Do you think medication is still required? I have asked a few clinics about medication. Dr yaman says medication is not required but he says you can use multivitamins instead. Eugenix said finasteride must be taken as it can help the miniaturised hair on mid scalp. I'm curious how/why clinics differ on this subject. I'm considering a procedure as a Norwood 7 but don't want to take finasteride or minoxidil and would only rely on multivitamins.

Hi @danny007 - any updates please? It would be good to see your donor pics and how it looks now after 10 days or so. Also did Dr Yaman mention anything about needing a 3rd session like @BaldGuy suggested? Thanks!

Hi @Cayden - I'm curious, what are his pre op instructions? Except taking finasteride ofcourse

Hi @danny007 - do you have any more updates to share please? Im curious how so many grafts were extracted from your donor area as it doesn't look that dense. Maybe Dr Yaman has a similar technique to Pitella, Eugenix etc where they are able to extract more grafts than most clinics.

Looking forward to seeing more pics especially of the donor. Thanks for sharing. Did Dr Yaman say anything about needing future procedures to get full coverage? I'm curious as to get full coverage with just over 6000 grafts would be impressive. Or did he say the crown will remain a bit thin or something?

Thank you... looking forward to seeing your pics!

Hi @Bald47 - do you have any updates & pics to share please? I also have some questions which I'd really appreciate if you could answer... 1. Were there any advantages/disadvantages to doing both sessions on 2 consecutive days? I would have thought doing the 2nd session 1 year or so later would be less risky? 2. You mentioned extractions were done via manual punch - was this because you chose to do it on 2 consecutive days? I thought Dr Yaman usually use motorised extractions, especially if they need to save time over the 2 days. What was the reason manual extraction was done? 3. How are your scars looking on the donor area and beard? I've heard manual extraction has less scarring. Many thanks!

Hi @Dazzler123 do you have any further updates and/or pics? It would be much appreciated. Hope youre seeing better results.
