Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted October 8, 2016 Author Administrators Share Posted October 8, 2016 Hey guys thanks for the compliments, just an FYI I will be going on my third procedure with Dr. Diep on the 13th, so I'll be creating a new thread tracking my progress. Dobler you're not the first person to tell me that, it's funny cause my friend told me the same thing, I actually started a thread about it, in my opinion my crown has slightly improved due to the medications I'm taking, primarily Lipogaine and Perfect hair with 5% Azelaic acid. I've also been using pumpkin seed oil and emu oil. Take a look at this thread it compares my crown now to two years ago http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/184667-lipogaine-perfect-hair-minoxidil-do-you-see-difference.html I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Regular Member dobler Posted October 8, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted October 8, 2016 Well it's strange because it does look like him, but the before photos are totally different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted October 8, 2016 Author Administrators Share Posted October 8, 2016 Yea spyk that's me, the video was shot a while back though, I think I was 9 months post op back then, I did get a bit more growth, maybe ill shoot an updated vid in his office on the 13th. Dobler take a look at my profile, I had a hair restoration prior to going to Dr. Diep, if you look at my "first hair restoration" folder you will see my hair looked as it did in the pre-op photos in the video. The photos in this thread are with a shaved head right after my procedure with Dr. Diep. As you may know when having surgery you have to have your head shaved.

Senior Member n00b Posted October 8, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted October 8, 2016 HTsoon, First, all the best for your forthcoming procedure. Looking forward for your updates. Next, can yo ask the doc about your hair caliber? I am very curious to know it. I think it is your think hair with your low recipient area that's producing such an awesome result.

Next, can yo ask the doc about your hair caliber? I am very curious to know it. I think it is your think hair with your low recipient area that's producing such an awesome result. Thanks Noob, I will ask Dr. Diep if he has a tool to measure the micron of my hair, Im not sure if he does, but I agree, whilst I don't believe I have the thickest hair, I definitely don't have fine hair, and I have a really small head which definitely has contributed to the result. Wow that's a long time. I'm going for my late one year follow up the same day as your procedure. Small world isn't it lol. I'll find out how long the wait is then. No way man, maybe I'll see you, if you recognize me say hi lol. Do you put these oils everyday. Yes I put the oils on every day, but I only put the oils on my temple points and nape, two areas which are thinning but do not cause a lot of issues with the oil, the oils are too greasy to put on my scalp everyday.

Nw6 as well I'm booked for 3900 in a few weeks, really hope it goes well, do you use ready mixed azelaic acid and Minox? Take it that's a brand perfect hair and you use the lipogaine in the evening Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted December 1, 2017 Author Administrators Share Posted December 1, 2017 Thanks I only use Lipogaine now, perfect hair was pulled from amazon. It’s been two years and a half since my surgery and things are looking better than ever, I’ve taken a break from posting, recently became single again, I’m so lucky to have had this transplant, I’ve been dating and not to brag but things have gone so well in that department. Without hair I’m not sure I would be enjoying the same success, to all the fellow guys out there who were like me, I hope this inspires you and helps you, I don’t log on often anymore and never really check PM’s, I have a YouTube channel if anyone wants to reach me directly signing off 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Senior Member BigBen Posted May 27, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted May 27, 2018 Wow, I wouldn't expect your baldness to be as serious as it was because of your current looks. By this I mean that with good doctor(s) and money almost anyone can recover the hair that they once had which is wonderful. What doctors would you recommend me (anywhere)?
