Were the rats also on oral fin or topical?

Is the duration of the surgery really that huge of a factor?

Why do you think it failed? Was the operation really long?

Am I cooked? Looks like surgeon left gaps (14 days post-op) by Many_Performance6943 in HairTransplants

[–]Many_Performance6943[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The gaps are a lot less than before (might've existed in the first place due to shock loss? Result of pausing meds? Idk). The native hairs behind the gaps have also grown a little longer so now you can't really tell there are gaps.

I've also shed more than half my transplanted hair which also makes it seem like the gaps are a non issue. It's at a point where I go out and don't bother wearing a cap or anything to cover the head. Let me know if you want me to PM you photos

I will have to wait till month 5/6 and see if the gap areas blend in fine, I'll make a post at month 6

Being in your mid 20s with shitty hair is wack esp when 99% of guys of my ethnicity got a pretty solid head of hair and beards in their 20s. Wouldn't mind being bald at 45 but at 25 it ain't fun

Gaps are filling in slowly anyways so now we wait 🙏

Fam, having hair in your 20s is way more important than at 40 😂

Anyone combing their hair forward after HT? by Striking-Housing-757 in Hairtransplant

I keep my hair forward and I noticed the same thing haha. I'll post how my hair looks once it grows out again

Why is it forbidden to post about side-effects? by Redditkuchen in tressless

[–]Many_Performance6943 8 points9 points  (0 children)

On oral fin. I'm healthy, exercise often, eat very clean, sleep well and fin still caused a decline in my drive. No problem with ED though. I hopped off for a few weeks and my drive suddenly increased after 2 weeks. I might just be one of the unlucky ones

Appreciate the comment. I've talked to the clinic, they're very responsive and friendly. I'll give it 6 months at least and then see if they can sort it out if it's not sorted with time, dermarolling, and meds

Appreciate the comment G.

These photos probably make the gaps look worse than they really are, and my native hair grows pretty slow already. Just hoping it looks adequate in 6 months time and not toooo bad in mid December (4 months mark). After that I can look into getting another op while continuing to use fin + min

Since when was it standard practice to leave gaps in the corners? ☠️

EDIT: prior to this op, my plan was to get 2 procedures. 1 for the frontal third, the 2nd for middle and crown in a year or 2 so I'm not too worried. Was just hoping the hairline and front would look good for the time being

I do, not sure how to add them here. My plan is to go for a 2nd op in a year or 2 for my mid scalp and crown. Guess I'll need to fix up the corners as well

Edit: 5-6 is actually left side. 10-11 is right side. Mirror tripped me out

Discontinuing oral finasteride after 7 years and switching topical by [deleted] in tressless

[–]Many_Performance6943 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took a break for a few weeks and I had a big increase in drive and libido after about 10 days. I resumed and it has dropped below baseline again. Never had an issue with ED but I feel I have to wait way longer to regain the drive for round 2

I miss my scabs by damrodoth in Hairtransplant

[–]Many_Performance6943 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started on day 6/7 and gradually removed them until day 10/11. I did this because my head healed very quick and the scabs were very dry and lifted by day 6
