What is the % of white men that eventually go completely bald, and partly the worry about the male baldness is my son’s best friend is almost completely bald with very thin follicles on top at age 27, how young does one start to experience MPB to have this stage of loss by age 27, he’s literally NW 6 1/2 if that’s on the Norwood scale

The statistics are that about 45% of men will have some clinical balding by the time they are 45. I have seen the process start at 16 years old and some reports have placed it as early as 12 years old. Most of the really bald men see some sign of balding by the time they are 21 (clearly evident on high magnification views with miniaturized hairs with thin shafts). The real question still unanswered is can this all be stopped when the advanced balding young men start Propecia early enough. At the age of 27, the pattern in the man you are talking about will probably be a Norwood Class 7 balding pattern. Class 7 on the Norwood scale.

Many actors use Wigs to create their character for movies and other activities. IT clearly works for Nicholas Cage as shown in this article.

If you have a tendency to Hypochondriac thinking, then the nocebo effect is clearly something that could impact you. You have to work it out in your own head first, otherwise, sexual side effects will hit you.

Hello fellow baldies. I’ve finally decided to take the leap and go get a hair transplant. I’ve been quoted on the price and scheduled an appointment in Istanbul. The clinic is Esteliv if anyone’s wondering or if anyone has underwent a procedure there I’d love to hear how it went. About the procedure: *Extraction of follicles with micro motor using stemcell technique and Sapphire FUE. They will be extracting between 3000 and 4000 grafts. Hopefully this’ll be game changing for me. Wish me luck!

Do you need 3000-4000 grafts? You have a donor bank that only has withdrawals and the typical Caucasian has between 6000-7000 grafts, only half of which can be safely harvested from the donor area without getting over-harvesting. If you are Asian, Middle Eastern, or family from Southern Asia (India, Thailand or Vietnam) then usually limits are substantially less than Caucasians. Do you actually believe this Stemcell and Sapphire FUE stuff? You should realize it is all promotional stuff.

You may have been over-harvested, and if that is the case, it may not return to normal. Wait it out for six months and see what happens. If your donor density was low, this can happen and cause donor site depletion, not only where it is outlined, but throughout the donor area as well. I am particularly disturbed that the hair loss occurred on the upper part of your donor area near the fringe where the hair may not be permanent.

I keep trying to find online stories of people who were not responders to fin switching to dut and at least maintaining but throughout my googling I cannot find a single one. Quite the opposite actually, people keep saying it did nothing.

I switched to dut after not responding to fin three weeks ago. Does anyone know any stories of fin non responders responding to dut as I’m pretty demotivated by finding one possible success story and finding 20 other failures from my position.

Also if anyone did have success how long did it take?

You increase the risk of sexual side effects because dutasteride blocks the DHT receptors about 90% vs finasteride at 70%. Also there are sterility reports from dutasteride. Be careful about this decision

Microneedling doesn’t require minoxidil. The wounds created near the stem cells is what stimulates the growth of the hair. These wounded stem cells are located 1mm below the skin surface at the top of the hair follicle.
