Surgical Treatments: |
one bad transplant of which was supposed to be 1150 grafts, but as it turned out ...it was more like 400-500
Left one nasty looking scar as well .
March 2nd 2012 Transplant with Dr Lindsey 1758 grafts total
1002 singles 756 doubles/triples
He cut out my old scar and closed it back up with a 2 layer trichophytic closure.
A big thanks to Dr Lindsey and his wonderful staff . It was night and day in comparision to my last transplant.
Also a big thanks to Spex for pointing me in the direction of Dr Lindsey and giving me the information I needed to make an informed decision .

Non-Surgical Treatments: |
Started Finasteride 3 months ago , every Monday-Wednesday-Friday. Nearly the same effect as taking it everyday (approx85%) No side effects to date.
I also take : vit e . vit c , fish oils, reservatrol, green tea extract, multi vitamin and minerals and vit b complex.
They are not for hair loss , only well being . Some of them however do have links to hair loss/growth.
I would like to start a topical after this upcoming transplant, hopefully within 6 months something better than minnox will be out ..hah :) I pray for future treatments for hairloss to become reality every night before i go to sleep . |

| My Hair Loss Story. |
I'm nearing my mid 20's mark . Noticed my hair loss around 19 and by 23 I was a norwood 3. I was completely freaking out about my hair loss.. I heard about a clinic while i was in Ft lauderdale visting family , Long story short , I rushed into a 1150 graft procedure and was butchered , plugged out and to be honest one of the worst transplant I have ever seen on any web site, especially considering it was done in 2010-2011. All this left me extremely unhappy , and I needed a plan .
