smoothy, at any point through all the years and HT did anyone ever notice you were inflicted with MPB? Were you ever losing at the crown?

I found this on another forum. -------------------------------------------------- Many people seem to believe that Hair Multiplication (Cloning) be a cure for baldness. Cloning would offer an endless supply of donor hair. Allowing that a patients hairline is limited only by his desire or budget. Aside from the fact that it could be years away, we do not know how safe it will be. Also, you would still need these hairs implanted via surgery, leaving the success of your hair-cloning experience dependent on the skills of the surgeon who implants these newly cloned hairs. Why FUE yield is comparable to HM / Cloning The proposal to implant only folicular units published by Bernstein and Rassman changed the industry, resulting in transplants that finally looked natural. Aside from scarring the main limitation left to deal with was the limited supply of available donor hair. A forum member JRF posted a recent study published in the journal Dermatol Surg 2001 Sep, 28(9):795.9 by Hwang S, et al. which finds that hair tranplanted to a recipient site, will take on some of the characteristics (most importantly, length and growth rate) as the hair native to the recipient site(i.e. Leg hair transplanted to the head will grow faster and longer than it did while on the leg and vice versa). There may still be some debate as to the best method to extract donor hair from the back of the head, that is not the point. The point is that the FUE process opens up the donor area to the chest, back, abdomin, legs, and arms. If the findings of this study turn out to be true, then the implications are profound. Surgeons could use the seemingly endless supply of body/limb hair to add as much density as the patient desires, or can afford.

hey matthew, thanks for the reply. the thing is, i've been using minox/proscar/nizoral for the past 7 months with no results on my crown. if anything, there's less hair on my crown now than when i first began. i'm going to continue until it's a year, but i've pretty much given up hope for great or any real results.

Alright, I'm 24 and already thinning at the scalp. I really dislike walking around with a thinning scalp, and the whole point of HT is to not look like you're going bald. I realize my hair loss will get a lot worse, but it's kind of pointless for me to wait around for 6 or 7 years, when at this age I want to feel and look young with a thick full head of hair. Regardless, hair loss is not my only problem, I also have excessive body hair growing. I've never had a HT, but I hear using FUE you can transplant hair from any region of the body onto the scalp. Would it be possible to have crown work using only my chest hair? My chest hair is thicker than the hair on my scalp, and grows 1-3 inches just on my chest.

It seems like FUE is the future, and is a very interesting and appealing route, but it still cost too much for my taste at the moment.

Hey guys, I'm 24 and am considering getting crown work done in 6 months when I'll be 25. I started to notice extra hairs shedding at 21, at 23 i noticed it thin, and 24 i noticed it thinner a little more. I've been on minox/propecia/nizoral for 7 months now, and have seen no results in the crown, but have noticed the rest of my hair filling in better and getting thicker(and the increase in growth rate of my beard). I want to get my crown filled in, so it can be a little more aesthetically pleasing. It seemed like the main concern you guys had about younger guys getting HT is that there can be extensively more hair loss in the future, and the crown will use a lot of the usable donar hair. The thing is, I seriously have the body of a yetti (I need get laser hair removal treatment for my back/shoulders/upper arms, and wax my upper chest and upper legs) With FUE, now I have more than ample amounts of donor hair just on my chest to cover my entire front. My chest hair is also thicker than the hair on my head. Even with this info, would getting a ht be a bad idea for me? I'm just curious to know what all you guys think, since you've most likely thought about this stuff more than me. I just hate walking around with a thinning crown.
