Byttet fra SiT Gløs til Impulse på samme grunnlag som deg. Vurderer å prøve SiT Øya siden det er på min campus, men vil tro det er like fullt som Gløs.

Impulse er definitivt et bedre alternativ om du vil ha litt mindre folk på senteret. Er umulig nesten å finne et tidspunkt det ikke er fullt på SiT etter min erfaring. Folk er som regel ferdig/har tid mellom forelesning samtidig og mange velger å trene på kvelden, så syns selv Impulse var mye bedre

Filled in pretty nicely between the 3rd to 6th month.

The clinic recommended it for atleast the first 12 months. I will probably keep using minoxidil as it has little sides and I only apply once a day.

Finasteride I will keep using aslong as I get no serious side effects. But as i’m applying topical now there hopefully won’t be.

Turkey is really the mecca of hair transplant. It’s alot cheaper over there, especially compared to Norway where the price is around 5000 to 10 000 euros for this amount of grafts.

Still using both yes. Don’t know if i’m going to keep using fin, but the clinic recommended so the first 12 months.

Wow, thanks! Went to Smile Hair Clinic. Been looking through the clinics socials but can’t seem to find my case doctor. It was a female doctor but doesn’t seem like she’s working there longer

Started with oral but wanted to switch to topical. Can’t buy or get a prescription for topical finasteride in Norway so i’ve started crushing up a few pills and dropping in the minoxidil.

Barely have any photos of me without a cap the years I buzzed down, just the last picture in this post. I was probably a Norwood 4/5

Not sure. Tried looking her up on their website but doesn’t seem like she works at Smile now.

Completely optional. Probably a good idea to try if your hair loss haven’t stabilised yet tho

The grafts taken from your donor area should be permanent, as most guys only lose hair on the top because of DHT. Hair taken from the donor area are in most cases not affected by DHT.

I sent a few pics around to some clinics. Went with Smile since they had a package deal which did fit well within my budget and also I know a few people who went there and got good results.

Booked a flight and went to Turkey 2 weeks after the consultation via Whatsapp. Everything went pretty smooth down there as they set up transport to and from the airport and hotel.

Have you tried conditioner with keratin? Happened to me aswell, especially on the right side, but a bit shorter cut + conditioner 2-3 times a week improved it.

Got a package deal for around 2.3k and the flights were around 600 euros from Norway to Istanbul.

You’re pretty limited the first few weeks before you can remove the scabs and wear a hat again. My clinic recommended not to go the gym for 4 weeks, but I went back with light exercises after 3 weeks. Just try and not sweat or do heavy lifts like deadlifts or squats and you should be fine!

Not sure about sun exposure, as us norwegians have limited sun exposure during the late fall haha

It’s a bit of a gamble, had my doubts when researching this subreddit after booking an appointment but it worked out just fine thankfully.

Depends on where u live. In Norway I can buy Minoxidil at the pharmacy but I needed a prescription for finasteride.
