wow night and day difference! You went from university professor to mature model haha. Nice results, Im happy for you
Haha that's nice of you! In fact my wife does some amateur modeling so I will definitely tell her you think I'm more runway-ready than before!
Amazing transformation! Hair should thicken up in time.
Thanks Tex, just waiting for that now! Appreciate your encouragement.

I have been balding since my mid-30s, progressed to "stage 6", meaning I was totally bald on top, but still had a lot of hair on the sides in the back. I got used to shaving my head and it looked OK. But deep down I really didn't want to be bald. Found Dr. Maral on the Internet. Very happy with results so far. I will keep posting as it grows in.

Heya Ab , wow great results so far , Cani ask did Dr Maral say you had good Doner area ? Seems like you have ?
Yeah he did say I had a good donor area. I guess it's something they can't really tell until they start the procedure. Thanks for the feedback.
Wow, what a massive change!
What have you experienced at this stage? You're close to probably the final look on the hairline, with the hairs just getting thicker and straighter. If you see my review it might be helpful as a guide to see months 6-12. It gets better but the peak of exciting change is months 5-6, in my experience. How's the back?
It does seem like it's getting thicker by the day this month, but I have also read that 6-12 months is when hairs really grow in. Back is fine, no sign of the procedure. Still thin on the crown so I may go back for round 2 next year. It's so reasonably priced! Thanks for the feedback! Arthur
Wow... you look 20 years younger. Congrats!
Thanks Joe! Helps to shave the beard a little too. Best, Arthur
That's really an impressive result. In fact it's not even half time. It's going to be even better when the year is up. Did Dr Mark say anything about the quality of your donor hair? By the way, could you show us how the donor looks? Congratulations!
Thanks Capri. If that's your birth year then I am your slightly older cousin, born in 1969! Dr Maral did say I had a good donor area. To be honest I did not even know that the donor area quality could vary from person to person. And if I understand correctly even the doctors can't be sure until they start the procedure. Anyway I am happy so far with the result. I took a picture of the back and will post it now. -Arthur
