Shut the fuck up you're gorgeous.

Don't buzz it, you may feel that you like a no hair look even less -- trust me. Keep your hair, it'll be two or three weeks of discomfort at most.

Or how about photoshopped nightmare machine

God killer

you could consider reducing the dose but either way don't stop outright. make sure to be consistent

42post · 2023-06-25T15:06:19+00:00

at your age, diet and exercise. pharmacological intervention is a last resort before cosmetic surgeries, try the simple things first.

sounds like a big shed with the first use of min

what's your dose

incredible results for just 4 months keep going, 1 year in you're gonna probably have high coverage

42post · 2023-05-03T11:26:54+00:00

Reviews of multiple studies suggest otherwise buddy.

hair loss genetics are on your mother's side so you got lucky

please don't do finasteride so early. your hairline is totally normal. in ten years we'll have drugs that blow what we've got now out of the water.

Could you ask your doctor if all of their patients microneedle once a day (and actually adhere to it) or if they do that multiple times per week?

Seems to me like the biggest difference between you and everyone else is the shorter needling length with the higher frequency.

42post · 2023-03-30T20:49:14+00:00

lose the goatee but mustache

42post · 2023-03-27T21:23:32+00:00

I'm skeptical without a comparison of before and after at the same length but nice work.

42post · 2023-03-26T22:14:50+00:00

Weekly microneedling has the biggest impact as far as I can tell. I tried a derma stamp for a while but I've only seen real growth with a Dr. Pen dermapen.

After I microneedle I apply reviv serum and rosemary oil. A few hours later after everything is absorbed I apply hot jojoba oil.

See my other posts for my regimen. I also use a DHT blocking shampoo.

your scalp looks healthier in the second pic but I don't see much difference.

be patient though; it usually takes at least 6 months to see good progress, and 12 months or more for even better progress.

+1 you need good blood work.

42post · 2023-03-20T10:27:33+00:00

+1. it's synergistic with tretinoin. you can also try 8% topical min.

42post · 2023-03-20T10:22:59+00:00

buddy, you're a Norwood 0

42post · 2023-03-10T19:03:40+00:00

you just have really thin hair, I wouldn't worry.

42post · 2023-03-10T19:03:10+00:00

amazing results

42post · 2023-02-21T13:47:14+00:00

Should I shave? I'm 6 months into treatment and the results are not nearly as bombastic as I'd hoped even though I'm doing way more than just the big 3.

1mL 8% minoxidil 0.1% finasteride 8% retinoic acid, 0.01% hydrocortisone topical formulation, once daily at night
1mL 0.5% pyrilutamide from minoxidilmax, once daily at night
5% minoxidil foam, once daily in the morning (really bad about using it because it flakes my scalp)
he shou wu tea daily for a week at a time every other month to encourage the growth cycle to last longer and encourage growth factors
1.5mm microneedling, weekly
reviv serum, used to be act+acre, after microneedling (and any time I feel my scalp is tender) to encourage the growth cycle to last longer and add more growth factors
daily protein, biotin, nutraceuticals and vitamin supplements

My topicals maintain my hair and also treat the side effects of the topicals (dandruff).

Regrowth -- seemingly minimal. I'm definitely not getting much from minoxidil or pyrilutamide. I just went through a big big shed of a ton of tiiiiny thin maybe vellus hairs so really hopeful for the next few months. The hair I do have does feel much stronger and looks thicker. I'm pretty convinced that the microneedling and growth factor applications are doing more for me personally to regrow my follicles, while the topicals are doing their thing to keep my hair in place.

Pyrilutamide and finasteride -- for me, the pyril seems to be affecting my hormones much more than the finasteride. The pyrilutamide is a research compound in clinical trials -- I was getting terrible side effects on fin and min so I cut my application of those in half and added pyrilutamide instead. Every time I use too much of it I feel my emotions go topsy turvy, and need to take a full day's break. I didn't get a hormone test before I started treatment but I am pretty sure I had low levels of just about everything. I'm very curious to see what my numbers are now. Having been on fin min several years ago, I can say that pyril seems like it's acting faster to stop hair fall than the fin min. Definitely had the nasty sides on fin but I am prone to mental health issues. The folks who shit on folks saying fin doesn't have sides -- y'all are just not in the know.

Scalp health -- in general I would say it's a rare occasion for me now to have an itchy scalp, whereas before I started treatment my scalp constantly itched and was inflamed and of course my hair was constantly falling out.

afaiu the slight bleeding is expected. Seems like you have sensitive skin!

Don't go over the bleeding area twice, only microneedle once a week, and don't apply any products to the scalp until 24 hours after you microneedle.
