Regular Member FUEAsianHairline Posted May 11, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) I finally received my portable microscope ($24): http://www.amazon.com/Vktech-Digital-Microscope-Endoscope-Magnifier/dp/B00MPCOJU8/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1425223015&sr=8-15&keywords=hair+microscope and it's pretty nifty. It zooms from 20x to 800x. I've attached some photos. 2 of my temples and 1 is an area of my scalp that is not balding. The zoom is about 100-150x and my head was fully shaved with a 1 attachment about 5 days ago. (I'm a NW 3) Also, here's a video that demonstrates the abilities of a similar device: For reference, here's a link to a thread of photos of my scalp from January which is basically how I look today: http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/178100-how-many-grafts-do-i-need.html I bought the microscope to better examine my scalp and to track the progress of my current treatments which primarily are: Laser Helmet (8 months) and Propecia (2 years) I don't notice any differences in growth when I look in the mirror or when I take photos of my scalp with my regular camera, but these microscopic photos should give me some more information. Any thoughts on the photos and the health of my scalp/hair? (I know the left temple photo has an area of redness which I need to pay attention to) Edited May 11, 2015 by FUEAsianHairline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member TakingThePlunge Posted May 11, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted May 11, 2015 Looks like an excellent tool for the price. I'm going to consider one of these also.
