It takes time for the hair to grow after the transplant. At 6-8 months you should see anywhere from 40-50%. It can take up to 18 months to see your final results. So far it looks appropriate for the time frame.

Hello doctors, i hd my ht exactly 8 months ago with 2400 follicles being planted on my frontal area bt my hairline density seems very low n scalps can be seen through my frontal hair. And i don't see any new growth and that worries me alot. Can i expect more growth in coming months or this is likely 80/90 percent of my final result. I'm also using hairfact multivitamin and hair serum for the last 8 months.

Can I expect more growth as my hairline density seems very low after 8 months of my FUE HT? (Photos)

FUE Hair Transplant

There is no benefit to taking both medications. In fact this could significantly increase your risk of side effects. Propecia is the only approved prescription treatment for hair loss. The off label use of dutesteride decreases the amount of DHT(dihydroxytesterone) by up to 90% while Propecia is 60%. But the down side is that dutesteride increased the risk of side effects.

I have been taking finasteride 1mg/day since February of 2017. I have a full head of hair. Front Hairline is slowly receding and temples as well. the Crown has some receding but very little. I’m 27 years old. My moms father and brothers all have full sets of hair. My dad is bald. I would says I’m between stage 1 and stage 2 on Norwood scale (little closer to 1). Can I take dutasteride with finasteride and what dosage?? And what’s a good age for hair transplant?

Can I take Finasteride and Dutasteride together? And should I wait till I’m 30+ years old before transplant?

Hair Loss Treatment

For me, with large sessions I prefer to do the FUT. done correctly the linear scar will heal with a minimal scar. As you said. 3000FUEs can give a speckled appearance. Pick your suggestion carefully. Get reviews and look at pictures.

I feel like most people initially think that FUE is scarless, and FUT is an old method that leaves a large ugly linear scar. However, I now know that having thousands of tiny round scars can also be just as aesthetically unappealing, and maybe even worse, than a 1mm linear scar (if done correctly). Curious as a doctor, what method you would choose for yourself..

As a doctor, if you needed a hair transplant requiring about 3,000 units, would you prefer to get FUT or FUE?

Minoxidil and finasteride work on a continuum. What I mean is that in 40-50 % it stops the loss and in another 40-50% it increases hair volume. So based on your pictures you have had a very good result. Not only have you stopped your loss, you have actually had improvement. Don’t stop the medications.

I've been taking both medications for about one year and a half and notice some minor improvements, but it's still far from what I consider acceptable. So in your opinion, do you think that with time my hair density will improve, or if it didn't grow by now, it's a lost cause? Also, would I be suitable for a hair transplant (FUE)? If so, how many sessions would it be necessary to achieve a good density? Photos below for reference. Male; 20 years old; 1mg finasteride + 2mg minoxidil.

Should I stop taking finasteride and minoxidil? Also, would I be suitable for a hair transplant (FUE)? (photos)

Minoxidil is only one treatment and certainly not the strongest. With female pattern hair loss platelet rich plasma (PRP) is a very strong and successful solution along with laser therapy and exosomes (very new and some what controversial). Also lab tests would be included in the evaluation. Many dermatologists just don’t want to take the time to keep up with the new treatments. This is not a criticism, they have so much other things to focus on, to take an hour for an evaluation is very time consuming. All we do at Medi Tresse is non-surgical treatment of female hair loss.

I have been losing hair for a year now I have done all blood tests and were normal and scalp biopsy and didn’t show anything. Most of dermatologs said I have female pattern hair loss I started minoxidil suggested from dermatolog bought over the counter 2% and used for 2 weeks which I didn’t feel anything anywhere then my friend suggested me a company 4% double strength which gave me after a week tickle in my face around mouth and ears then i stopped.
