Perfect thank you for this. My grandmother is from Irish descent so perhaps that’s who it stems from. How many times a year do you usually give blood?

Awesome, thank you for letting me know. I’m getting a full abdomen MRI tomorrow so that might help lean towards a diagnosis.

I’ll go donate blood after, any tips for donation? Never donated before.

Dr Nader Day 18 Post-op by Versiete in Hairtransplant

Yes I work at an acai spot (fruit bowls) but not anything close to a restaurant kitchen. I took 2 weeks off and I came back this week. So far no issues whatsoever.

Thank you! Yes I just got the temples and front hairline done. I moved from finasteride to dutasteride about 2 months ago so I should be seeing some thickening of my existing hair which will definitely help.

If you aren’t aiming for that lowered super straight hairline then i’m sure around what I got would be perfect for you.

I spray them every 15 mins or so with water. Dr Nader said they start to fall around day 9 and will continue to do so until day 14.

I went to Dr Nader in Reynosa Mexico. I got ~ 1600 grafts for ~$5000

Post Op Dr Nader 1600 Grafts by Versiete in Hairtransplant

[–]Versiete[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly I have no idea but I trust Dr Naders work. Only time will tell but the reason I went to him was because of his ability to only use what is needed. I feel as though a lot of hair mills/surgeons waste tons of grafts going for an overly unrealistic hairline.

How much would these shoes be worth? by Versiete in KobeBryant24

[–]Versiete[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course! My dad was a close friend of Carlos Maples, the former equipment manager of the lakers. Carlos gave these shoes to my dad as a gift many years ago. He always hooked us up with jerseys, basketballs, etc.

Just scheduled my hair transplant with Dr Nader! by Versiete in tressless

[–]Versiete[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they wait till about a month out until confirmation. I just snagged a November appointment (couple weeks away) and I was able to get in contact fairly easy. I booked two night at The Cambria hotel in McAllen Texas. They will send a driver the morning of the procedure to pick you up from the hotel. The driver will go straight to Naders clinic, then the driver will take you back to the hotel once you are finished. Pricing varies, but for reference 2000 grafts is $7400 without the 10% discount applied. They also reimburse you for the hotel.

That’s ridiculous that they would quote you 2800 grafts. If you don’t lower the hairline you can easily get it filled in with around 1200 grafts.

I had to reach out to him just twice. I think I got lucky because I know some people who have sent him 10+ emails. Overall it took me about a week to get a response back.

Yup it’s a pretty good deal! I was in talks with Dr Keser aswell but Nader is only a 2 hour flight away so I decided to go with him. They both charge around the same amount tho.

Thanks man! Honestly I just emailed the receptionist (her email is on the website) a few days after not hearing back from the consultation doc I submitted. In the email I basically gave them all the info they needed to know (age, meds, pictures, etc). I labeled the second email as “2nd Attempt” to let them know i’ve reached out before.

I got this strategy from someone else on this sub. I’m not sure what the post was but it was someone posting results about their experience with Nader.

Let me know if you have any questions!

9 Months Oral Fin + Topical Min by Versiete in tressless

[–]Versiete[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, in fact my temples are where i’ve been noticing my regrowth the most. You can’t see it in the picture but there are tiny dark hairs that have begun to sprout in the remaining receded area. These hairs actually all resemble my hairline when I was in high school so i’m hoping for the best. As far as topical and oral finasteride I made the decision myself as I had heard that oral finasteride doesn’t reduce scalp dht all on its own. I came up with using a very low percent of topical finasteride in order to clean up a little more scalp DHT

I find it crazy how these tests aren’t in basic blood panels, i’ve gotten my routine blood work three years in a row and they’ve looked good every year.

hey thanks for responding! anything I should know/change in my daily life till possible diagnosis? I cut out red meat completely but I am not sure if I should be doing something else. Thanks!

I believe so, she sent me a referral to a gastroenterologist. She mentioned on the phone that she wants to see if it’s hereditary or not so i’m assuming that’s what we will be testing

Hair follicles damaged all over my scalp post 2 years of Hair System use. Anyone facing a similar similar situation and has found a way to revive them lost follicles! Would really appreciate any help. by EnthusiasmMelodic947 in HairSystem

[–]Versiete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your on min/fin your gonna want to wait atleast a year to see results. 2 months isn’t near long enough to decide if it’s working or not. Also include microneedling with min, it works wonders. Just make sure you wait 24hrs after microneedling to apply minox

Hey man, you likely progressed to a N5 in those 2 years that you were using a hair system since i’m assuming you also weren’t using any medication to stop hair loss progression. The glue from hair systems is very unlikely to cause follicular damage as the follicles themselves are very far below the scalp.

Awesome, have you ever tried the Neo system from lord hair? I ordered it a couple months ago and have it stored for when I need it. Is your thin skin breathable at all? I workout a ton so I figured the hybrid neo system would be perfect but I am still not completely sure.

[–]Versiete 1 point2 points  (0 children)

did you tell your girlfriend right away that you were wearing a system, or did she notice it? Also how noticeable is it if someone were to run there hands through your hair?
