can we see pictures of your head scalp? before transplant and today's progress.

Where was the graft from?

This sound like Yun Nam snake oil salesman pitch.

No. Oily scalp should not affect the transplanted hair. I have oily scalp and face too

From back of your head. They extract 1 by 1 so very labour intensive. Modern clinic I saw in Youtube they use ARTAS robot

if Norwood scale 3-4, worth to do it?

I am interested, please share the clinic and surgeon name

thanks

Sorry, my mistake.

But the transplanted hair is not usually enough to maintain an appearance of a decent head of hair, especially on the crown

Still need to maintain the other original hairs around the grafts, only way to do that is with finasteride and minoxdil

I think worth to explore. How old are you?

It's just a random example, plucked from thin air.

Can pm details of surgeon and location ?
Might ask my brother to check it out.
Thank you in advance

Very interesting AMA!
1) How do you decide the "new" hairline? Is it a cost thing or to look like before balding/younger or enhanced or somewhere in between?
2) are you changing your hairstyle?
3) Any plans how to handle queries about your new look?

interesting, i might keep this in check cause male baldness runs in my family

my dad and younger bro kena, dad close to 70s norwood 7 since 50s. my younger bro is prolly 3/4 and <30yo

so far my hair still look thick so im hoping i got the good end of the genetic lottery

1. TBH I did not decide on the hairline. They use laser to draw a symmetrical line on my forehead and ask whether I'm OK wit it...I just said OK
2. I plan to once I have fuller hair. Now too early to decide...keep checking mirror everyday...very excited
3. Today is my first day coming back to office. TBH no one care about my new bald look. Only 1 colleague ask me in toilet why I cut my hair so short...

Baldness is heritable so probably just a matter of time. Your brother suffer it earlier likely because of his eating and lifestyle

it looks painful

Please pm me clinic name and doctor's name. Thanks.

If you feel pain during the procedure, just let them know and they'll administer more anaesthetic to your scalp. Afterwards no more pain

Throughout the process you'll be given muscle relaxant pills so you'll feel relax and half-awake.

The next day after they wash off the scab your head will be less red and few days later it'll heal - similar experience like what the guy in the video and I went through
