However, if the doctor did communicate in advance about managing your expectations regarding the results, then that aspect is acceptable. It's common for both native and transplanted hairs to shed, with around 80-100 hairs falling out daily being considered normal due to natural hair cycles. However, if the shedding exceeds this range, it could be a cause for concern and you should than take some precautionary measures. I cannot pinpoint or neither any doctors—be it mine or others can tell exactly they all tell me to be patient and wait for the full year. im on month 8 4 still to go and in some cases it’s advisable that it can take up to 18 months for full results so I’m trying my real best to patient about it about having a transplant with limited donor and high Norwood I understand the doctor should have kept me on finasteride for 3 months first and then go for surgery but it’s alright. what’s done is done they might lose me as a client. i understand these tactics by clinics to not turn patient away but that thought is long gone I have to be prepared for what’s coming thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all clinics have it, if PRP is made in a normal centrifuge then it is useless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
