HTcurious

Thanks alot Pat and others, Shock loss is one of my major concerns for sure. HarryBen asked the right question. I have xisting hair (not alot ) ) But, the point is I would like to increase the density.So in this scenario, I am very much concerned about shock loss, since I can afford to lose my existing hair. My other concern is the scar at the donor site. right now I could feel the sacr even if i run my hand over my head at the donor site. if i cut my hair short I could see the scar. When i see posts that says "my scar is almost invisible " , I am even thinking if it can be true. But what I know & realised is ..my first Ht is a Train wreck. I hope, I can make the scar less visible after my 2nd HT.

Are there any one in Michigan who had had HT with Dr.Fellar ? Or Shapiro ? Or any suggestions for good surgeons in Michigan ?

Hi All, I had a first HT in MI, at a place called Hair Loss Treatment Center (Cozmedic - Michael Heilman)- I only wish I had known this commuity earlier. It was a waste, disaster I should say. well I lost more hair because of shock loss I guess. I have hair loss mostly on top of my head. I have hair but its NOT AT ALL dense. I mean if I walk in sun you can see my scalp, actually under any bright illumination. Question: Can I go for 2nd HT ? To make my existing condition better ? I am afraid I may again go throug the shock loss if i have HT and the surgeon places hair grafts closer to my existing hair. What Should I do ? I am confused ( and depressed.

Thanks Smoothy, I hope I have enough donor hair (seems like I have enough to me.)so that I can have a SUCCESSFUL HT. Please let me know more details about scalp excercise. What kind of excercise are these ? any web links/ resource where i can get to know ?

Hello I had had a HT with Hair Loss treatment Center, Mi in feb. A total Disaster.I mean atleast nothing bizzare happened other than that I lost my donor hair, hair on top (heavy shock loss) and my money. Q1. Will I be able to have another surgery in the same area (need hair on top)? Q2. I am on propecia for about 7 months now, I thought my hair loss was stabilized, but now suddenly I noticed a lot of shedding .Does this mean that propecia does nothing to me or why is this sudden wave of shedding ? Please help me !!!

I had my HT at Hair Loss treatment center, Troy MI. This is my 5th month. I havent seen much results yet. I was curious (as my name says) and also was suspisious of this HT game after acquiring some knowledge through this messageboard, so started talking to this guy michael heilman and asked for my exact number of grafts- He said i got "2259" and the deal ws actually for "2000", with the results i am having either i didnt get that many number of grafts or ..major part of the grafts are not growing..but anyways..my question.. - How could any one possibly tell or count the exact number of grafts..like 2259....is anyone counting each graft ?? if its approximate ..i can understand if the answers are like 2000 or 2100..but 2259 ..so specific..?? Am i smelling something here ???

Dr.Rose Thank you for your time and the knowledge you have shared. Your input certainly has helped me to take a decision on this issue with regards to my 2nd HT. Since i have had the first Ht as a strip, I think there is no point in going for FUE.Since I would have a scar anyways. Thank you again.

Hi, I had missed seeing the video clip. is there any place it is uploaded in our website or anyway I could also see the video please ? Thank you

Hi Guys....I really got to thank you all for the support and advice..It is relly encoraging. I am hanging in there..waiting to see some results ?? Whats is MSM (I mean the expanded word )?? I would assume I could get it in any GNC or health store like that and also i hope no prescription is needed.Please correct me if I am wrong. Thank you al lagain for the encoragement !!

Is MSM also falls in "Once you Start - you cant stop " Category like finesteride ??

Hello guys, It amazing ..to see people with great results in 4,5 6....months, I am so happy for them...But here I am sitting worried. I had 2100 grafts from HairLoss treatment Center , troy Michigan in feb. All That i have seen till now is to lose more hair....My scalp coverage has become terrible..can see my scalp easily now..which was not like this before the surgery. I was convincing myself that the loss is because of shock loss etc...But now its almost the end of 4th month and all I have seen is my hair vanish in front of my eyes...even now..I just ran my fingers on top of my head (not enough hair to say - ran through) and i see hairs in my fingers. I dont know why I lose so much of hair so fast...in matter of few months. I have been on propecia for 2 months. But I dont know how much it is helping me. Well I just wanted to share my feeling swith this community, which i wish i had got to know before february. I am still hoping...But I really dont know what kind of results i can see now..after 4 months :-(..what ever i had is also going..going ...gone..

Pardon me for my ignorant quetsion..but want to get educated !! What is FUE and strip - I mean the difference between them. Is there any difference in percentage of success rate - the number of grafts that grow after transplant ? Any difference in the result - I mean the looks ? Any Difference with regards to shock loss and scarring ?? Why the big difference in cost ?

I am a lso a newbiew..But from what i understand atleast 3 months is needed to see any difference. from previous threads : Propecia starts to do its jobs from the day you take it. But to see the difference i.e; slower hair loss rate and thinsg like that atleast 3 - 4 months.
