Regular Member PP2 Posted November 1, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted November 1, 2010 My story is nearly the same as yours. I'm 22, but I began suffering from hair loss at age 20. I first started using Rogaine, then I quickly stopped after about of 2.5 months of using it because I didn't like it. Then I started using Propecia, and I have been on that for about 1.5 years now and I just started using nanogen for the past 2 months now. I have a very similar hair loss pattern as you. I'm currently losing my hair on the top (sides and back are thick) frontal third. I have been looking at Dr. Alexanders results in the past and they look very promising. I'm very anxious to see how yours turns out because it can give me an idea of what I will experience in the future.

Senior Member aaron1234 Posted November 6, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted November 6, 2010 Looks like great work. The first few months will be tough but it should be worth it in the end. 7 days is on the early side for suture removal so I'll be interested in your scar situation.

Senior Member Sean Posted November 7, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted November 7, 2010 At 10 days that closure is VERY THIN, i can't even notice it until the hair was lifted. Even at day 5! That's pretty good stuff right there. You seem to heal pretty quick, even regarding scabs etc. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
