Hi All

 

I was wondering if any surgeons would consider doing work on someone with patchy hair loss , scattered on completely different parts of the scalp ??

 

Does anyone have any comments on this ?

 

Thanks.

HT No2 : Marwan Saifi 1680 grafts. Great result

 

HT No3 - Marwan Saifi 1250 grafts. Another good result.

 

HT No4 - Hakan Doganay 2134 grafts. Result TBA

 

Total 5134 grafts.

Sounds like you have Alopecia Areata. No HT doctor with any conscience at all would perform surgery on you. The good thing is that it usually resolves on it's own.

Finasteride 1.25 mg. daily

Avodart 0.5 mg. daily

Spironolactone 50 mg twice daily

5 mg. oral Minoxidil twice daily

Biotin 1000 mcg daily

Multi Vitamin daily

 

Damn, with all the stuff you put in your hair are you like a negative NW1? :D

Levrais is right. Your hair is thinning - maybe in a diffuse manner - but it's not patchy. I'd get on Propecia if you are not already. Maybe look into dermmatch to even things out. But I would not get a transplant yet if I were you.
