| How has my hair loss affected me? |
enough that I was thinking about it too much
|
| What hair loss treatments have worked best for me? |
rogaine did well to fill in the crown a bit but nothing else that was natural like supplements or vitamins or special shampoos did the trick
|
| Am I happy with my hair transplant experience and the results? |
so far. results will have to wait but the procedure was unexpectedly trauma free.
|
| What hair loss treatments would I recommend? |
HT for those with the cash. HAT for those without.
|
| How has hair restoration surgery changed my life? |
not changed anything yet except now I have something to look forward. kind of being an expectant mother I suppose.
|
| My general advice and suggestions. |
dont go blindly into this. however do appreciate that if you are 30 or 40 years old and balding HT offers you something to make the next 20 to 30 years of your life a little less stressful every time you look in the mirror. also if you look younger because of it you may feel younger as well and maybe just maybe add a few more quality years to your life.
