Beautiful results. Congrats. How much total donor do you have? For me, it seems like a fairly aggressive approach for you level of baldness. However, the results look great. Are you going to have enough donor to address the crown fully?

10 months update, havnt been on in a while, time is flying by!

 

Nick im not too sure how much donor ive left, my laxity still feels good, will find out for sure in December when i hit the crown for HT number 2! Booked in for 1500-2000.

 

Im a touch weak on the left side but have made huge strides from my pre op stage and im happy with the progress, im basically half way there now, always knew id need 2 HTs at a minimum, looking forward to getting back in the chair again :D

What an outstanding result. Would love to see how it looks with the hair combed back as that is one awesome hairline design.

Hey, excellent result! What is your expected donor total? Also, do you have medium fine hair? Have you noticed any regrowth from Propecia?

Thank you lads

 

Ive just had HT number 2, 2350 grafts so thats 6860 in total, ive 2000 odd grafts left by FUE should i require more work done in the future.

 

According to the doc ive got fine hair, not ideal but i had decent laxity.

 

My experience with propecia is a bad one, i was on it for 18 months, the sides just wouldnt go away, i tried lowering the dose to 1mg MWF and 0.5mg daily but to no avail, im off it 6 months now and finally feel like a MAN again!! Im not even sure it made any difference to my hair, 90% of what i got on top is transplanted hair, im never touching the stuff again thats for sure.:eek:

Hey Cueball. Thanks for sharing. Does that place your donor density at around 75 fu/cm2? Sorry to hear about your experience with Propecia. I am very impressed by your result. It looks amazing. I am taking Propecia, too, with some minor sides, the only one being no erection in the morning. I am hoping this will go away.

 

May I ask you a question? Are there any Norwood 7s in your family? I am having this dilemma myself, which is why I ask. My dad is a Norwood 6, very similar to my hair loss. My maternal grandfather, however, who had a full head of hair throughout his 20s and 30s, perhaps even in his 40s, became a Norwood 6,7 hybrid later on in life. Jus the possibility of Norwood 7 scares me. I never thought I would be so excited and hopeful to inherit my dad's NW 6 pattern. lol

 

Thanks mate!

My donor density was between 70-80 , pretty average really but id above average laxity which allowed me to get 2 decent strip procedures.

 

Yes mate i had that side effect too with propecia and it just got worse as time went on so i dumped it, thankfully everything returned to normal but it did take some time, possibly 2/3 months after discontinuation before i felt a proper man again, the missus is delighted too lol :D

 

There are no norwood 7s in my family, mostly 5s and 6s,this was a concern for me too, my loss did stabilise and even though the crown loss was extensive i kept strong high sides and they are showing no signs of miniaturisation.

@ QBall, thanks for sharing mate. You should be very happy soon. :)

 

@ mosd, I am taking 1 mg Finasteride per day. I started approximately two weeks ago, and I still have minor side effects (slight breast paid, testicular pain, and loss of morning erections), but I plan on sticking to it unless it becomes unbearable. I will give it 1 yr, and hopefully my body becomes accustomed to the drug.
