Senior Member Bleachcola12 Posted November 25, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted November 25, 2007 Noticing from different pictures that hair looks kinda thin at the 4-6 month mark, so wouldnt it look basically the same to apply some dermmatch to thicken up, and make it look a lot better. Then at month 8 or 9 discontinue use and let the ht show its beauty? I guess my question is has anyone used dermmatch during those periods of 4-6 month post op to make it look good, and then backed off in the later months??

Senior Member NervousNelly Posted November 25, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted November 25, 2007 I had used Toppik post HT to thicken things up because of the partially shaved area in my midcore region. It definitely helped. I think that you could use dermatch and then back off, but for me it is more exciting to see the actual changes day to day. I don't want to get in the habit of using a thickening product and then not see the true changes that are happening. My worry also is that it could be an emotional let down because you are so use to what things looked like with product and then all of a sudden its not as dense without. Just a thought.

Senior Member Robert_ Posted November 26, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted November 26, 2007 I used Dermatch pretty regularly during the 4 to 6 month mark, but I applied it sparingly to the hairline (where my HT was concentrated). Get your doc' advice if you're very concerned but it shouldn't be a problem as long as you don't use it excessively. ------------------------------ Check out the results of my surgical hair restoration performed by Dr. Jerry Cooley by visiting my Hair Loss Weblog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Bleachcola12 Posted November 27, 2007 Author Senior Member Share Posted November 27, 2007 Thanks for the response guys, I see, Robert, how did your hair look with dermmatch during the 4-6 month mark? Pretty solid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Robert_ Posted November 27, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted November 27, 2007 Yeah, man. Dermmatch is addicting. I still use it about once a week (usually on Fridays) when I want that "really thick" look. ------------------------------ Check out the results of my surgical hair restoration performed by Dr. Jerry Cooley by visiting my Hair Loss Weblog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
