Never ask for 8000 FUE grafts. Unfortunately, too many patients want more hair and forget that if they take it from the back and side of the head, what is removed to fix the balding front, top and crown will be gone forever. Now this man traded a bald look in the mirror (I am assuming that the transplant was successful) for a bald back and side of his head. Not Good!

These results would have happened with finasteride as it did with dutasteride. The key for this man was minoxidil which was very effective even as early as 4 months, just better at 8 months.

These pictures show that finasteride works throughout the head and scalp. I don’t think I have to tell you which one is the before picture!

This is a fantastic result from finasteride. Clearly the hairline as responded as well as the rest of his frontal scalp.

Good results from using finasteride for 8 months, the first 5 months at 1mg and the last 3 months at .5 mgs

The photos say it. I suggest that you note his hair styling.

This shows an excellent result from the combination of finasteride and minoxidil over an 8 months period of time. Many people need to wait a full year to see such benefits

These are very impressive results

This man used a dermaroller for 8 months and as you can see the hair grew in much fuller.

Minoxidil does not impact the hairs that you are losing from miniaturization and genetic hair loss, it does grow new hair. So what you are seeing is the shedding of your native hair.
