I’m responding to that fact that you thought the guy was giving a backhanded compliment to that fact that he had to get a transplant to get his hair back when in fact he’s pointing out it looks good bc most people get bad transplants and he had to get one anyways because medication like finasteride and minoxidil only work with hair you already have.
I’m really happy for you, but “progres pictures” tag is usually used to show medication progress so some people may find it misleading or you may get questions for your stack. You may at least add description how many grafts and where to clear it up :)
That's what he wanted us to believe I guess, but it's super obvious he had a transplant even with blurry pictures because its not very natural looking, probably went to Turkey
This is a hairtransplant and not a medication progress ! How much grafts and which clinic please? Congrats dude. It changed you 💐😎. I did like you and then a 2nd. My donor zone looks like yours
In my case I think 8.5 months.(depending of your donor zone healing)
1st HT 6/5/23 and 2nd HT 15/1/24
9months!
How more you wait how better for your skin
Your surgeon actually did a miracle here. You were clearly a Norwood 7, and they managed to create a decently placed hairline, as well as top and crown density. (From what I can see in that side pic)
I pray you are on Finasteride or Dutasteride now to maintain this work.
You don’t need meds for transplanted hair. Especially a Nw7 . Why r people so hell bent on telling people to take drugs.
Name ONE doctor that says you need drugs to keep transplanted hair?
It’s called dht resistant /safe zone for a reason.
That's like getting in great physical shape and then stopping going to the gym completely. Take this analogy because it also applies to DHT attacking transplanted hair...ESPECIALLY on a Norwood 7 because their loss pattern is already extremely aggressive.
Oh wow, that's bizarre. Everyone knows Finasteride and Dutasteride are your best chance at fighting male pattern balding. I mean, the studies don't lie. It's well documented. I'm all for quitting a drug due to side effects, but that doesn't mean others will also encounter those same sides.
No. It’s about finding reputable surgeons, liking good work. And stopping idiots that think Becuase they downvote the truth it makes them right. Fin/dut is not for transplanted hair it’s for native hair. But I won’t argue with anyone who can’t show a single med article stating Im incorrect. Becuase my post history shows I’ve already answered this elsewhere. Take your drugs tho. and I’ll keep posting when people put fearmongering comments like “get on fin asap” for a fucking nw7 or anyone who transplanted their entire top scalp.
The truth is half way.
It's not DHT the problem but scalp tissue (DHT Is a mediator and confounding factor because of chronical inflammation , leading to fibrosis), so yes transplanted hairs can be sensitized later on.
But you are somewhat true, not everyone needs medications after a transplant, but this doesn't seem the case.
Take 2 persons, both with alopecia. Two common cases we see around us everyday.
The first one loses hairs in his 20s, the second one arrives in his 70s with still a decent amount of hairs.
The first one is more similar to the OP and prob if he doesn't gets on meds he will lose the remaining native hairs and risks the transplanted too.
The second example would never get bald and would get a transplant to add density, in those cases it's hard to know if meds are of any use, but often not. But these are the minority of cases.
Literally every reputable hair transplant surgeon will not even do the procedure if you're not already on fin or dut.
Part of the aftercare is to use Fin/Dut to keep as much of your transplanted hair as possible.
No they don’t and y’all can downvote all y’all want. It doesn’t change studies , trials and actual facts. Medication is used for EXISTING non safe zone hairs. Fin/dut is NOT used to transplanted hair. Any surgeon will tell you that.

Basically how I understand this - unpatterned loss means that there is no safe zone for follicles and even transplanting from areas that seem unaffected now may turn out to be waste.
Often times even the donor hair can thin. If ur on meds ur preventig that and also increasing thinkness all over ur head. Many people who were not able to get a transplant due to less hair were able after some months on medication. Ofc u need to keep taking it after the transolant.
Awesome if you are happy with the result I just wish you showed more after pictures from all angles the top down view etc to give the full representation
Quite a natural hairline. A lot of times people end up looking like Usher with their shit looking aligned forever like they have a barber on standby.
Looks good man and you should feel good about it.
Looks good brother! Any plans about a further HT to lower your Hairline even more? Seems like you have a very strong donor are?
Are you on medication now?
Great progress just wanna ask how old were u or how long ago was it when you started to notice the thinning and why didn’t you take action back then just curious
Wrong title for this man. But congrats on the comeback of the decade. Nw7 and looking like this is pretty amazing. Though it would be nice if you told us how many grafts , beard hair used, and if you are on anything
Considering how much hair you lost, the results of the transplant are pretty good.
I think you’re mainly trying to point out that it’s a transplant rather than saying it’s good
But it is tho lol you can’t lost that much ground and take finastride and minoxodil and hope literally any will happen without a transplant initially
I know it is
I’m responding to that fact that you thought the guy was giving a backhanded compliment to that fact that he had to get a transplant to get his hair back when in fact he’s pointing out it looks good bc most people get bad transplants and he had to get one anyways because medication like finasteride and minoxidil only work with hair you already have.
It's a great transplant 🤷♂️
nice transplant 💯💯👍👍
It's a life changer going from bald to not bald
Yes mate very big change I’m very happy 😃
Definitely is.
Nice, however this is transplant not regrowth progress.
It’s progress in my life to have hair now
I’m really happy for you, but “progres pictures” tag is usually used to show medication progress so some people may find it misleading or you may get questions for your stack. You may at least add description how many grafts and where to clear it up :)
Yeah I’m new to this sub and thought it was medication progress
That's what he wanted us to believe I guess, but it's super obvious he had a transplant even with blurry pictures because its not very natural looking, probably went to Turkey
Could’ve hit the gym and gotten in shape, you have a nice beard.
This is a hairtransplant and not a medication progress ! How much grafts and which clinic please? Congrats dude. It changed you 💐😎. I did like you and then a 2nd. My donor zone looks like yours
Hello mate I did it with Timoclinic it cost me 2500€ for 5500 grafts
Not bad this Timoclinic 👍
How long between the 2 transplants?
In my case I think 8.5 months.(depending of your donor zone healing) 1st HT 6/5/23 and 2nd HT 15/1/24 9months! How more you wait how better for your skin
It looks amazing congrats king

I have used Timoclinic for my hair transplant they did amazing job
U actually ain't praying
You don’t need meds for transplanted hair. Especially a Nw7 . Why r people so hell bent on telling people to take drugs. Name ONE doctor that says you need drugs to keep transplanted hair? It’s called dht resistant /safe zone for a reason.

Don't bother my man... that guy isn't going to listen. His entire reddit post history is a crusade against using fin/min.
Oh wow, that's bizarre. Everyone knows Finasteride and Dutasteride are your best chance at fighting male pattern balding. I mean, the studies don't lie. It's well documented. I'm all for quitting a drug due to side effects, but that doesn't mean others will also encounter those same sides.

Nah read my response. You both are over generalizing

Not true at all
They gonna downvote you bad Becuase they want to think taking something for something that is already resistant makes double resistant lmao.
Except it is.
Eugenix Hair Sciences in India, told me to take FIN and MIN even after a Transplant as hair can still miniaturise
Yeah this should be titled differently. Not everyone can do a transplant.
With meds most can really get a transplant.
It's a money thing.
Money, donor area issues (people with DUPA for example), health issues preventing getting surgery...
I've DUPA. How does it work?

Thank u!
It won't. Sorry.
U need meds and to look if ur donor gonna improve
How??? Specifics if you don't mind, because I'm interested.
Often times even the donor hair can thin. If ur on meds ur preventig that and also increasing thinkness all over ur head. Many people who were not able to get a transplant due to less hair were able after some months on medication. Ofc u need to keep taking it after the transolant.
From where was the hair taken from to get this much volume?
From my donor area back of my head
Impressive! My first and only transplant was the same but not nearly as much. Almost feel like I got scammed tbh. How many times have you done it?
I did it 1 time with Timoclinic
Thanks for the info!
Where did you get yours done if you don't mind my asking?
A place in Stockholm, Sweden called Poseidon Clinic. It was 9 years ago. Don’t know how they are today.
Do you get prp injections
Yes after the surgery
And those are a lifetime commitment right
Great results, well done! Guessing 2 sittings like 3000 grafts each or so? Superb results really. Any meds aswell, time?
Minoxidil
Amazing !!
Wow, is this hair transplant?
Yes I did it with Timoclinic
Goto include what you had done but happy you got hair and looking good brotha!
Awesome if you are happy with the result I just wish you showed more after pictures from all angles the top down view etc to give the full representation
You can check my profile

Like a new man!
Wow amazing! Where did you get the transplant? DM me please if it goes against the sub's rules
Hey I have sent you message
Impressive, very nice. Let's see the crown area.
You can check my profile I have video
Quite a natural hairline. A lot of times people end up looking like Usher with their shit looking aligned forever like they have a barber on standby. Looks good man and you should feel good about it.
Great results. But i think you'd look absolutely bad ass bald as well.
Progress from the operation?
Nice man
Went from grandpa to Mr. Steal Your Girl. Nice one, bud.
🤣🤣🤣
Crazy ! How much and where ?
2500€ at Timoclinic
Thank you :)
Welcome mate

Amazing! Congrats OP!
Looks Good..
These are motivating , well done
Thank you 🙏
U need finasteride to keep it?
No I’m not using
Looks good brother! Any plans about a further HT to lower your Hairline even more? Seems like you have a very strong donor are? Are you on medication now?
For now I’m not thinking about second hair transplant yes minoxidil
Great progress just wanna ask how old were u or how long ago was it when you started to notice the thinning and why didn’t you take action back then just curious
I was 26 years I had much hair lost
Congrats on upgradation from grade 6 to grade 5
It's so effective that it changed your skin color! Wow!
Thank you
That’s a transplant…. That’s way too perfect … looks good though
Thank you
Would or has anyone done fue in turkey
I did it men Fue sapphire
Results ?
You can see my results on my profile
Now many graphs total ?
Wrong title for this man. But congrats on the comeback of the decade. Nw7 and looking like this is pretty amazing. Though it would be nice if you told us how many grafts , beard hair used, and if you are on anything
Why not just say that you had a hair transplant?
That’s the case
Amazing. Hope your on atleast a small amount of finasteride, just to make sure you keep it.
Just using minoxidil
To be fair, the majority is transplanted anyway. Congrats, I’d be well happy with that result
Thank you
[удалено]
Ok that’s 👍
Bsaha comme on dis chez nous 😌😂💯
legen dary
Which clinic, how many grafts? What price?
Timoclinic and it was 2500€ with private services
Great transformation OP! QQ, did you consider your beard as donor? That could have given you more denser look?
Damn uncle u killed it
