slickedback Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 So I have been on Finasteride for over a year and while it has stopped my hair loss I havent really re grown much on the front of my head. I use Nizoral every 2 days but thats the extent of my hairloss regiment. I am only thinning at the front and I am wondering if anyone knows what other methods I can use to thicken my hairline in the front? I am too poor for a hair transplant, 6000$ is not even a consideration at this point. I am also afraid that if I use rogaine and get a hair transplant I will have to keep using rogaine forever. Are there any options for my hairloss type? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member JayWalker Posted December 9, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted December 9, 2013 You look to have a good thick head of hair from the pictures. Unfortunately, finasteride is not known for much regrowth on the front part of the scalp (as far as im aware), but great that you've stabilised your loss. I would start some Minoxidil then you are giving yourself all the chance you can. Other than that, its time to get saving for a transplant, unfortunately. http://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/blog/journal.asp?CopyID=10024&WebID=2832 October 2011 - 1647 FUT - Dr Dorin January 2014 - 1580 FUT - Dr Dorin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member sillymusic Posted December 10, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted December 10, 2013 Have you considered a temporary concealer until your in a position for a HT? I was using Toppik spray applicator until I was ready for the HT. Think that could work looking at your hairline! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Patriot34 Posted December 10, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted December 10, 2013 Well at least you are taking meds and that is great news. Not a lot you can do if you really want to thicken your hairline besides a HT. A concealer might be an option, but I suppose it depends on you view of using concealers. Personally, a hair piece and concealers are routes I won't go. I think a HT would be a good option for you but finances are a big part of going down that route.

I have been losing hair for the last 3 years and no one has noticed at all! But I'm looking for more of a permanent solution. I guess I,ll just have to start saving.
