5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Had a hair transplant with Dr. Feriduni - 6850 grafts (6000 from scalp, 850 from chest/beard)
A user had two hair transplant surgeries, using a total of 6850 grafts from the scalp, beard, and chest, costing around $20,000 USD, and is happy with the results, though the crown may not be as dense as the hairline. They experienced no scarring from the donor areas and noted that transplanted beard and chest hair are thicker and curlier.
community Anyone here who stopped microneedling and maintained or lost the gains?
Microneedling's long-term effects on hair loss are uncertain, with concerns about scarring and the need for continued use of minoxidil and finasteride to maintain gains. Finasteride does not sustain minoxidil-regrown hair without ongoing minoxidil use, and microneedling alone shows limited evidence of effectiveness.
community How true is the statement: dead follicles don't grow back?
Hair follicles usually go dormant rather than die, and treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and hormone therapy can sometimes reactivate them, though results vary. Complete regrowth is rare, especially in long-term bald areas, but some individuals see significant improvement with these treatments.
community Anyone use Verteporfin with their hair transplant yet?
User discusses using Verteporfin for hair regrowth after hair transplant. Replies mention successful follicle regrowth in studies and mice, questioning if it can be replicated in humans.
community Switching to Oral from Topical min effective or not
Switching from topical to oral minoxidil may lead to better results for some users, with oral minoxidil generally being more effective due to higher absorption. However, it can also cause side effects like hypertrichosis and blood pressure issues, and individual responses may vary.
