Regular Member Moises Posted August 8, 2004 Regular Member Share Posted August 8, 2004 I know each individuals results vary but generally speaking if your hair tends to grow fast is it likely that that transplanted hairs will grow quickly aswell. My hair grows extrememly fast and growing up it was pretty annoying having to get haircuts so often, But now it looks as though I could possibly benifit from it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member hairworthy Posted August 10, 2004 Senior Member Share Posted August 10, 2004 Your transplanted hair will continue to act as it did before it was moved to another location, but it will first need to "adapt" and "recover" from the surgery. This might take a few weeks or a few months. In addition, you probably know that each hair goes through various growth stages, and it seems that the post-op growth also depends on the stage the hair was in when it was taken out. So some hairs will be quicker to grow than others. After 6 months or so, everything should be back to normal. You can also take MSM to try to speed up the process. Worked well for me. 3045 FUs with Dr Victor Hasson on 8 June 2004 1836 FUs with Dr Jeffrey Epstein on 2 March 2006 Regimen: 1.25mg Proscar every other day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Brando Posted August 10, 2004 Senior Member Share Posted August 10, 2004 I'm not that familiar with MSM. Do you have to continue it or can you stop once you see growth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Robert_ Posted August 10, 2004 Senior Member Share Posted August 10, 2004 Moises, Understand that I have absolutely no proof behind me saying this, but I would think that yes, if your hair normally grows rather fast I would think that the transplanted hair would retain this characteristic. As ever, hairworthy's and my own opinions are basically the same. Brando, MSM is an "organic source of sulfer that forms the basis for the structural raw materials in joints and connective tissue. **As a supplement, MSM promotes joint and cartilage health.**" -Label from the bottle of CVS Pharmacy's MSM 1000mg. SInce it is a supplement, I think of MSM, quite basically, as a vitamin in that you can stop taking it with no real adverse side effects other than losing the benefits that initially taking it gave you. -Robert ------------------------------ Check out the results of my surgical hair restoration performed by Dr. Jerry Cooley by visiting my Hair Loss Weblog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
