Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted February 3, 2023 Administrators Share Posted February 3, 2023 This ad came up on my feed. I’ve seen so many hair transplant results, that this to me, looks like ugly duckling vs. 12 months post-HT. What do you guys think? I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Senior Member Mountinvan Posted February 3, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted February 3, 2023 Can't read the small print, but cannot believe that medication alone would create that frontal density. Now I can believe, as Melvin, concludes, that a HT can create that density and it certainly would help to do some augmentation with medication. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, this is a very deceptive ad, perhaps they do use this treatment. But this result is largely due to surgery. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Regular Member NegativeNorwood Posted February 3, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted February 3, 2023 Zoomed on the fine print and it says: "Before and after images shared by customer. Customer's results have not been independently verified. Individual results may vary" So yes he most likely had a HT and used that product in the meantime. As the before and after picture is so good, they used it and wrote that to save face in case someone notices IMO. "Mature hairline" is euphemism for balding.

Regular Member g8n2h9k3u7 Posted February 3, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted February 3, 2023 If you guys are suggesting it is implausible to have this kind of result outside of a transplant, there are tons of cases on r/tressless that show otherwise. Although they tend to include microneedling as well. But there are definitely some incredible responders to medication-only regimens. Anyways, in the after picture the guy's hair is much longer and with a combover style, which makes a true comparison harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
