Senior Member cardel25 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Senior Member Share Posted April 27, 2012 Oops i would have missed that post..thanks RodG for letting me know.. I hope his results are much better than what he expected.. Like Rod said i will update at the nine month mark which is soon. I can already say that I'm still very happy with the HT. I don't think that much have changed during the last months but its hard to tell when i haven't taken any pictures the last months. Perhaps it matured a bit and it have of course grown a bit. I will upload pictures within a week or two. 1 mg Finasterid M-W-F. 2,500 mcg Biotin. 1 mg 5 % Minoxidil once a day. Multi-vitamin. Fish oil. Head and Shoulders every day.

Senior Member cardel25 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Senior Member Share Posted April 27, 2012 I can say that i started slacking with my daily use of minoxidil. Because i sometimes get a few sides from using it. But after 10-20 days i started losing hair rapidly so i am back on it and I will stick to it as long as I want hair on my head - unless some magic intervention is invented. So I have probably lost some hair so perhaps my results now would have been even better if I haven't tried quitting minox. But as I stated before I have about the same mount of hair as I had at the 6-7 month stage so it isn't that bad. 1 mg Finasterid M-W-F. 2,500 mcg Biotin. 1 mg 5 % Minoxidil once a day. Multi-vitamin.

I would just like to ask you about the use of minoxidil. Do everyone who has had a transplant required to use minoxidil or other medications to maintain the result of the HT? Could i also ask you when you started to go back to work again after the operation? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member cardel25 Posted May 8, 2012 Author Senior Member Share Posted May 8, 2012 Hi cardel25 Thanks for all the wonderful updates. I would just like to ask you about the use of minoxidil. Do everyone who has had a transplant required to use minoxidil or other medications to maintain the result of the HT? Could i also ask you when you started to go back to work again after the operation? Thanks Well Its definately a good thing. But because it doesn't work for everybody i would wait to begin with minox until i was able to see if it works. If you start on it right after a HT you wouldn't know whether it was the HT or minox that is causing an effect. Finasterid is a more powerful product But it also have more sideeffects. So whether one should take it is individually. Most HT docs recommend it thought. 1 mg Finasterid M-W-F. 2,500 mcg Biotin. 1 mg 5 % Minoxidil once a day. Multi-vitamin. Fish oil.

I do think that i am one of the better results of Dr. Radha mainly because some of the patients pictures she have posted her and on her website is taken only a few months post op. I hope to many with similar results like mine when they document their progress until one year post op. I am thankful that i could inspire others to undergo a procedure by Radha. Im sure that they will benefit from it. Once again thanks for your post. It was nice to read. 1 mg Finasterid M-W-F. 2,500 mcg Biotin. 1 mg 5 % Minoxidil once a day. Multi-vitamin. Fish oil.

Senior Member HARIRI Posted May 12, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted May 12, 2012 You look amazing Cardel25. You hair is breathtaking. I swear if I knew about Dr. Radha from the start, she would have been my HT surgeon, its only 3 hrs away from here. There are many great hidden surgeons in Asia. BTW I noticed you are on fin M-W-F since day 1, have it affected your libido so far?

Senior Member AllAboutHair Posted May 14, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted May 14, 2012 Great results, you can get such a results becoz 1) you had excellent doctor 2) you already had good amount of hair covering most of your scalp, you had HT only around temples. So your results are obvious. Meanwhile, I am planning for HT with Dr. Radha, I will soon join party with you.. Happy growing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW I noticed you are on fin M-W-F since day 1, have it affected your libido so far? Thx for your comments on my hair it really means a great deal. I know that you have much knowledge about hair restoration. You are definitely one of the most respected members on this forum so i really appreciate your kind words. Im also happy that you acknowledge Radha?s great work she deserves all the praise she can get. Regarding Finasterid it did effect my libido at first when i started - i used it everyday. But when i then changed to only using it 3 x a week the side effects subsided. So now it doesnt effect my libido at all. 1 mg Finasterid M-W-F. 2,500 mcg Biotin. 1 mg 5 % Minoxidil once a day.

Regular Member Cartesian Posted May 19, 2012 Regular Member Share Posted May 19, 2012 Cardel, May I take the liberty to ask you " how much was the charge per graft" ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member HARIRI Posted May 19, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted May 19, 2012 Catesian, believe it or not... Its $1 per graft. Dr. Radha offers great price WITH great quality. Cardel25's thread is almost viewed 10000 times, that shows how popular is his result and how popular is Dr. Radha became. I think one of the reason of her good HT quality is because she insists to perform one surgery a day for the reason of giving full attention to the patient plus she handles most of the tasks in the surgery and not throwing it to the technicians. I wish she stays the same, I'm so glad for having a high quality surgeon at last in Asia :-) Plug removal + Strip scar revision - Dr. Ali Karadeniz (AEK)- May 23, 2015 Plug removal + 250 FUE temple points- Dr. Hakan Doganay (AHD)- July 3, 2013 Scar Tricopigmentation- Dr. Koray Erdogan (ASMED)- May 3, 2013 2500 FUT (Hairline Repair)- Dr. Rahal- July 26, 2011 My Hair Treatments: 1- Alpecin Double Effect Shampoo (Daily) 2- Regaine Solution Minoxidil 5% (2 ml once a day) 3- GNC Ultra NourishHair™ (Once a day) 4- GNC Herbal Plus Standardized Saw Palmetto (Once a day) My Rahal HT thread http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/164456-2500-fut-dr-rahal-hairline-repair.html[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
