Hair Transplantation: Significant Advancements Over the Past Decade

The post and conversation discuss Verteporfin's potential as a hair loss treatment. It's shown promise in regrowing hair after transplants and might be effective with microneedling.

A user shared their positive experience with a hair transplant at Dr. Resul Yaman Hair Clinic in Istanbul, including before and after photos. They are considering taking oral Minoxidil post-operation but are avoiding Finasteride due to side effects.

Male androgenetic alopecia is commonly treated with topical minoxidil and oral finasteride, both requiring continuous use. Other options include hair restoration surgery, dutasteride, light therapy, and camouflaging agents.

The conversation is about someone considering a hair transplant due to ineffective hair loss treatments, with suggestions ranging from trying a hairpiece to continuing with medications like finasteride and minoxidil, and waiting for new treatments. Some advise against a transplant due to the extent of hair loss and the cost, while others share different views on the effectiveness of transplants and non-surgical options.

Hair loss discussion mentions Verterporfin for scar-free healing and hair follicle regeneration. Human study expected within 2 years.

A user shared their experience with a Long Hair DHI Hair Transplant, receiving 2,750 grafts. They plan to continue using Dutasteride and Topical Minoxidil post-surgery.
