I can’t comment about Europe, but we are the best traditional Scalp Micropigmentation in California here: https://scalpmicropigmentation.com/ . I just published an article about a Scalp Micropigmentation breakthrough with a new system which we just started using and are the first in North America to have it:

“We introduced a new needleless microjet injector that uses laser pulse energy to inject tattoo pigments for Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) directly through the skin without a needle”. It also has the advantage of a one-pass use, which means that when the pigments are deposited, it is permanent and doesn’t have to be repeated.

It has the advantage of an almost painless experience, eliminating the need for anesthesia.that has no needles and does not require anesthesia. Right now, there is not much availability of this technology but I am sure it will change soon. We are offering it to a limited number of people.

I was wondering if someone who started with DUPA can later on develop male pattern baldness in there life? i have a second question if i may? In those DUPA patients who react to finasteride, was their progression moving faster than who did not react to finasteride?

We really don’t understand DUPA but yes, I have seen people with genetic balding who have DUPA, so the reverse is highly possible.

I have had more transplant in the past than I care to mention including the old fashion scalp reductions and have been stuck with weaves and wigs ever since. The SMP procedure is the most marvelous procedure ever. It got rid of all scarring from my transplants including the scalp reduction scar. I am a very successful businessman, who before I had the SMP put me in the prison of Wigs and the like. My confidence is now solid and the procedure has given me my, as Sinatra would say, SWAGGER back in life! It has been a life changing experience and I got a ‘get out of jail’ free pass for life.

I am a 20 year old Indian male with Norwood 2- Norwood 3 hair loss. As per blood tests, my DHT levels are 1410 which is twice of normal range (250-990). My dermatologist usually prescribes Finasteride 1-mg, but has recommended taking Dutasteride 0.5-mg instead due to unusually high DHT. She said this is for cases like mine. My question is this: what is the difference between Finasteride 1-mg and Dutasteride 0.5-mg in terms of efficacy and potential side effects? Have you ever recommended Dutasteride ? Trials indicate it is far more potent than finasteride.

Finasteride is probably safer than Dutasteride which is known to cause sterility in young men. I never pay attention to the DHT levels as I don’t believe it makes any difference in my initial recommendations.

I am beginning to notice a trend of accelerated hair loss during certain times of the year, particularly in the winter months. I’m from western Pennsylvania and as such we experience all four seasons, with winters fluctuating from brutal to mild all in the same season. I’ve noticed that my hair looks much more thicker and darker during the summer months , but has the months turn colder I begin to notice distinct hair loss on the the sides and top of my head. The density of my hair in these areas is noticeably less, as you can see bits and pieces of my scalp through my hair, especially on the sides of my head. My guess for the cause of this rapid hair loss during the winter month is due to the lack of sun that provide vitamin D and being pent up in the house resulting in minimal exercise. Another thing I noticed is during the last stretch of winter, is that my mood is quite negative (seasonal depression); perhaps resulting in even more hair loss.

Has anyone else noticed a similar pattern during the winter months? And if so, how did you deal with this issue? I have began taking fin (4 months in with the fin) and vitamin D3 supplements as well as doing my best to watch my diet and exercise outside despite the freezing cold. I’m wondering if there anything else I can add to routine to lessen the affects of this kind of hair loss?

Humans have asynchronous hair cycling while other furry animals have synchronous hair cycling that is tied to seasonal changes. Certainly vitamin D deficiencies will cause hair loss and we get good doses in summer if you are out in the sun, but we usually don’t fluctuate on our Vitamin D levels by the month unless you live in very norther climates where there is no or minimal daylight in the winters. We know that people who live in norther Scandinavia, for example, develop Vitatmin D deficiencies not infrequently and this may impact their hair. Taking oral Vitamin D may solve this problem for this population of men and women.
