QUOTE(playnice96 @ Jul 28 2023, 08:50 AM) Any side effects from oral minoxidil like body hair grow? I think it’s meant to suppress DHT for the hair on the head. Other body parts don’t have thatAlso can you get oral minoxidil from pharmacy? Cause I can get those spray type minoxidil and finasteride from anu pharmacy. I don’t know any pharmacy selling oral minox This post has been edited by knwong: Jul 28 2023, 10:23 AM |

QUOTE(sanwaltz @ Jul 28 2023, 09:16 AM) any tip for us on what's considered as over-expectation on hair transplant procedure?, like don't expect this or that Don’t expect new hair growth will happen immediately Transplanted hair will shed 2-3 weeks after surgery, which I am experiencing now. New hair will grow few months after that So trust the process |

QUOTE(ashburn98 @ Jul 26 2023, 12:02 PM) Great to hear the transplant working well for you. Realized I missed your questionSay in your 50s down the road, will you (all of us) have enough donor cells for grafting new bald spots? Does it make sense to make preparation of grafting early on, like in Scale 1-2? Healthier hair follicles or blacker hair colour maybe? If you colour/dye your grafted hair, will the colour/chemical damage the graft? When you are older we will still have some donor hair, albeit less quality. Clinic I went to, their oldest patient is 80 years old. Lol. Average patient age is mid-30s Norwood 1/2 no need transplant la. Graft extracted can only last few hours outside your body so on same day must get it planted You can begin dyeing grafted hair few months later once you have fuller hair |

So the hair was “planted” only at the forehead region? How about the middle/top part? I see hair is still sparse

You are not seeing hair at the middle/top part because there are still original hairs there and yet to grow. They put more at the forehead because I no longer have hairs there, thus bringing down my hairline a lot![]() |

My friend also did hair transplant locally, cost 6k (less hair transplanted for sure).
He did it last year. So far no complaint. My only complain about him is scared of cutting his hair now, so the hair grows long unruly |

Really informative, good job ts! Park here just for future questions.
Btw, just to know, does this transplant need you to go fully bald for the procedure? And is this hair permanent? Or more grafting needed adter certain time? |

How do they choose your hair roots?
Or u get to choose the type you want? E.g certain hairs are curly type, some are straight |

RM12k is worth investing in your looks…thanks for sharing. I’m not a male and not impacted by MPB but am fascinated by the process…am surprised that with all our technological advances, there is still no cure for MPB.

For smaller number of grafts I think no need to go fully bald, especially if you only do the frontal zone. Ladies hair transplant for exampleBtw, just to know, does this transplant need you to go fully bald for the procedure? And is this hair permanent? Or more grafting needed adter certain time? Transplanted hair will stay permanent. More grafting needed once the remaining original hair on your head start to shed |

Need to trust the surgeon and the team for doing their bestOr u get to choose the type you want? E.g certain hairs are curly type, some are straight During lunch time I saw my extracted grafts they put in a blue saline container...each got 2 - 3 hairs per graft...I guess is to ensure higher survival rate? My hair is straight. If you have curly hairs I guess you need to find experienced surgeon that have done that before |

More grafting needed once the remaining original hair on your head start to shed And any reason why dr give you 3 days MC? Is it due to the procedure had side effects and still very painful few days after it? Can we take a bath on the next day after the procedure? To be honest, i very interested to try this |
