Regular Member Bej520 Posted August 29, 2018 Regular Member Share Posted August 29, 2018 I'm a young diffuse thinner not currently on any medication as I had a very bad reaction from fin and dus separately. Currently, Im happy to trim my hair all the way down to a 0.1 and have some temp SMP done but was thinking if a HT would be possible in the future. Let me know your thoughts guys and as I said earlier I had a bad experience with the meds so please so "get on the fin ASAP" comments. The pictures are from last week before a hair cut, this is the longest I've grown out my donor area in a very long time. Interested on your thoughts on my donor area so drop some knowledge guys. ??

Senior Member TrixGlendevon Posted August 30, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted August 30, 2018 To be honest, the second pic already looks like FUE scarring a bit. Donor looks alright but go for a few consultations and they will calculate it precisely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Speegs Posted August 30, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted August 30, 2018 Use rogaine on that crown, are you absolutely sure you can't give finasteride another go? Without it hair loss will inevitably get worse and you'll be chasing it with a finite donor to try and fill in the thinning. Hair loss patient and transplant veteran. Once a Norwood 3A. Received 2,700 grafts with coalition doctor on 8/13/2010 Received 2,380 grafts with Dr. Steven Gabel on 9/30/2011 Received 1,820 grafts with Dr. Steven Gabel on 7/28/2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member VicTNYC Posted August 30, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted August 30, 2018 1st photo of yours looks as if you have decent donor density. 2nd photo of yours looks as if you have had a FUE procedure prior with many gaps, unless it’s just the lighting.

Regular Member Bej520 Posted August 30, 2018 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 30, 2018 I haven't had any work done yet, so it may be the new hair cut + lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member 1978matt Posted August 30, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted August 30, 2018 I see you're in the UK. Suggest you consider in person consultations with Farjo and the Maitland Clinics. I think they charge if you want to see a doctor but it's not more than about GBP150. 4,312 FUT grafts (7,676 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2013 1,145 FUE grafts (3,152 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2018 763 FUE grafts (2,094 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - January 2020 Proscar 1.25mg every 3rd day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted August 30, 2018 Administrators Share Posted August 30, 2018 I agree with what everyone's assertions, the second pic looks like my scalp and ive had 5,300 grafts extracted.

Senior Member True Posted August 30, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted August 30, 2018 Dr. Ball of the Maitland Clinic is probably one of the best doctors in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who did your temporary SMP? I'm very interested in this procedure for my Norwood 6 scalp. Edited August 30, 2018 by True Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
