These were definitely the three things I've tried to grapple one. I'm just wondering about the third option. By stabilise do you mean no further hair loss? Or just slowed? I've been on meds for years and it definitely slowed my loss, but it still occurs albeit very slowly. Thanks again for the great vid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, I mean make sure it’s slowed down enough, so that you don’t end up looking then same or worse. Hair loss in the beginning can be very aggressive and rapid, I lost most of my hair from age 26-29. As long as you’ve noticed your hair loss level out you should be okay. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Senior Member 1978matt Posted January 8, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted January 8, 2020 Some good points. I got a '5 year car loan' for my first procedure, mainly as the interest rate was so low but also as a contingency that I had other savings to do the whole thing over again if anything went wrong. And as for stabilization, another option is...to wait it out. It sure sucks but it might be better to wait until you have lost enough hair to make a single HT worthwhile. Obviously then you have more time to save up too. 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...

I would recommend this to anyone who doesn’t want to take any meds. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.
