Updated first post with FAQ on how many hair grafts needed for hair transplant

Updated first post with 3rd month progress photo. Already noticeable difference to a lot of people that I regularly meet

Yes. The transplanted hair will keep growing. What is your Norwood scale now?

Normally 10mg oral minox is meant for high blood pressure

The one that took that the surgeon prescribe is 2.5mg

Yes. The surgeon that attend to me is also a female so you should be comfortable consulting her

The latest pic was posted 2 weeks ago in the 1st post. No big change yet

That's dirt cheap! How many grafts?

What's the total cost include accommodation and flight?

Yesterday I began to style my front hair become spiky and when I walk in front of my wife she complaint she doesn't like the current handsome me...still preferred the old botak cos look more silly...LOL!

It will continue to grow. The transplanted hair is taken from the back of your head anyway

Can still shave, no problem. It'll grow back

Haha a welcome positive change for me. For her probably need sometime to adapt

Yes

Yes. They gave relaxation pill so I felt sleepy throughout. Time passed very fast

Hair transplant is considered minimally-invasive surgery that doesn't require full anesthesia la

If you request for one I think the cost will add up cos they'll need to get another doctor to standby to monitor you

Long time never update this thread. I just uploaded my 9th month hair photo on first page. These past few months I've been cutting my hair on monthly basis.

1. Not really. The baldness is noticeable when I am in my 30s so since then the hair drop has been occurring on daily basis...even until today. But I believe those falling are original hair...not transplanted hair

2. I chose to pay 1 lump sump. You can opt for credit card installment

3. Of course! Not everyone but the ones that noticed are ladies and for man those who are bald themselves. I guess these group of people are image conscious. LOL. Family members by now most would have know I went for transplant even if I don't personally tell them about it...

Well I continue to cut my hair short every month so latest update on 1st post is valid :-) Never need to follow up with doctor after my 3rd month

Yes. If they select the hair graft from the back of your head, it will be the same type. If there's not enough graft, and decided to get hair from other parts of your body it will not appear natural.

That latest photo in my 1st post is a good reference. I continue to cut my hair short every month so no big difference actually

No. Stopped after 3rd month. Transplanted hair can grow naturally

Dutasteride is more potent than finasteride
If you wish to have longer, more dense, thicker hair then can take them. But I'm very satisfied with my current result dy
