sorry dude, i didnt mean to jump the gun and assume you had decided not to reply. I'm just anxious to hear verification on its effectiveness which i thought Dr Feller would be able to provide by now as he has been performing prp for some time.

Anyway, thanks for replying and we appreciate your honest feedback. If it appears that it can halt hairloss then its a huge move forward.

thanks again and hopefully Dr Feller will chime in at some point with his updated thoughts.

by the way did the UK PRP option ever work out. I thopught I heard Dr Rogers was offering the treatment.

I know Spex frequents these forums a lot and I've seen other posts from him since this was posted so I'm assuming he has seen this post and decided not to comment. No news is bad news :-(

Hi guys,

I'd imagine by now the Feller clinic has done a fair few PRP cases and you should be in a position to gauge its effectiveness.

Can you please tell me, in your opinion, from what you have seen so far, how confident are you that PRP treatment can help to slow down or stop hairloss?

I'm not concerned with regrowth, just keeping what I have.

Thank you

There is a real contrast difference between native and transplanted hair in his pics, as is the case with mine.

I hope he gets taken care of.

Wrong direction and I think they were damaged during removal giving them a texture very different from the native hair in both colour and texture. I don't have a camera, but its a similar case to this only the directions are a lot worse

I have recently found that if I don't wash my hair every day that my hair looks a lot thicker and easier to style and cover my baldness. It doesn't look particularly greasy either. I've gone nearly a week this time without washing it. Anyone else found this to be the case?

Hi Headinahole,

Out of interest what is your donor density?

Thanks Eman. Really glad to hear you are happy with your scar. I've read a lot of your posts and think you have a great attitude to this whole HT thang.

Thanks Ammars.

I hope that is true although I have difficulty in believing it to be the case with the majority. For example a lot of guys that I have seen with wet hair even with an inch or so in length you can still see their scalp due to the wetness, especially at the sides. I would therefore imagine if that person had a scar it would be visible!

I'd be inteested to hear if your strip scar is visible when the scar is wet and what grade of cut it isn't &is visible when wet?

Thanks Bill & Eman. I like the approach to the whole thing you guys have.

Thanks for the honest answer Bill.

Do those close to you know how you restored your hair ? Have they asked or they just know it somehow came back?

Those of you that went to good docs and particularly those who don't have the advantage of lots of native hair to camaflouge transplantyed hair, would you say your HT is 100% natural?

Do you think people ever look at your hair wondering if its a HT? Are you able to tell the difference between native and transplanted grafts?

Thanks Swagger & Bill. Good sound advice.

Thanks everyone for your comments amd thoughts.

you will have a very thin crown if you go NW7... 6000 is just not enough IMO

Do you mean 6000 is not enough to provide a natural result, for soemone who ends up as NW7? I'm fine with thinness and a thin crown as long as it looks natural.

your best look will probably be the comb back look

Unfortunately my hair naturally points forward in a flat direction hence the comb back lookdoesn't work for me.

How old are you? Would you consider posting some pictures? Who told you that you have 6000 donor available?

I'm 33. Sorry camera is currently not working.

1.go for a very skilled surgeon and tell him your goals man.

2.cover up your frontal and mid scalp and dont think much about the crown because "crown is like a well" which requires a lot of hairs .

3.another way is that if you have a thin crown then you can always cover it with some good concealers.

 

Good advice. How many grafts do you think a NW7 can use on the crown? I'm only a NW4 at the moment, but just wondering but just wondering if the crown did start tro open what the max no. is that I should sensibly throw at it.

If you are going to be a NW7, I would absolutel not get a standard (or even receded) hairline planted. You will end up with an island on top disconnected from the rest.

So what alternative are you suggetsing or are you stating that if a nw4 thinks they will go to nw7 then they shouldn't get a ht full stop?

I guess the sides dropping is the biggest worry. I mean there are some ol men out there who have the tinies little ring of nw7.

6000 donor available, good hair characteristics BUT good chance I will go to NW7. If I get 2000 in the frontal 1/3rd now will the remaining 4000 donor be enough for me to still have a natuaral look if I did reach NW7? I don't care if I have a thin crown, just as long as I don't look like I've had a HT.

What do you guys think?

Wantego,

Everything looks fantastic.

Do you feel it looks 100% natural. What have friends and family said about your change in appearance.

Well done mate.

5 or 6 cm Joe but that would be nearly the width of your whole donor at the back, unless you have an extremely tall head!

Also wouldn't that amount of tissue removal, even with extreme elasticity, have an impact on skin towards your face. Kind of like a lateral facelift, lol.

Hi Bill,

Are you saying that 3cm width is generally achievable in the average patient?

I asked earleir what the average donor density was and the general consensus seemed to be 80 FU/cm2.

What do you think the maximum width of strip the average patient can take from their donor is? I'm talking about more than one procedure.

Also would it be fair to say that donor density is relatively uniform from the back to te sides?
