The yellow fluid you are seeing is serum, which normally appears after an FUE or any open wound. The key is to keep it washed so that this yellow fluid doesn’t form scabs (crusts), and by keeping it clean, infection risks are minimized.

I feel I must comment on your experiment. Yes, doctors do inject fat into the scalp, and yes, doctors do inject platelet rich plasm (PRP) into the scalp. But no, there is absolutely no evidence that either of these work to grow hair and applying it to your scalp will not get it inside of the scalp because the epidermis (a 1/2 mm thick and tough layer of the skin) protects the scalp largely from outside influences. So, although I wish you luck on your experiment, which I hope to see results here on Reddit in the future, I am not optimistic about it.

Lard Experiment – I will massage Lard into my scalp once per week for 6 months to see if I can grow hair in temples from tressless

Hi Dr. Rassman,

I am 24 and I know I have MPB. However, I’ve been having a poor diet over the last 4-5 months, which I already stopped and started getting a proper diet. However, during those months I noticed my hair getting thinner.

My question is simple: with a proper diet will I have my hair as thick as it was before the poor diet began? I do not expect an exact answer of course but just an idea based on your experience.

Thanks

Will your hair get as thick as it was before your bad food habits? Likely not. If you are sure you have genetic male pattern baldness (diagnosed by a doctor?), the poor diet might’ve exacerbated the hair loss. It could regrow somewhat, but I don’t know enough about your hair loss pattern or history to really speculate too much more.

You need to be seen by an expert, and you should consider getting on Propecia to slow down the loss if you are indeed experiencing MPB.

These crusts should be allowed to shed with shampoo regularly, leaving the shampoo on the scalp for 10 minutes and then gently rubbing them until they come off. It may take a few days? but don’t push it. After 2 weeks, the risk of graft loss is minimal. Compare this man on the left 1 weeks from his surgery with the man on the right, just 3 days after surgery. The difference is good post-operative washing. The man on the right was our patient and nobody could tell he had a hair transplant done at any time so far, at least.

During period of two months October – December 2014 I lost 35 pounds, cca 15% of my total weight. I ate mainly vegetables, basically it was starvation and gym. At end of december noticed diffuse hair loss. Immediately normallized my eating pattern, went to dermatologist. Dermatologist ask for hair loss genetics and looked thru microscope. No signs of miniutarization, no vellus hairs and my hair genetics is perfect, no balding in my familly, I am 39 years old. 5 months after, there is no significant hair regrowth, and no further hair loss. What to expect, what will be real time frame for possible hair recovery? After hair loss I lost good amount of chest hair, could easily pull 70-80% of picked chest hairs, now it is ok..

Starvation like a crash diet and extreme work outs do not sound very healthy. It isn’t such a surprise you suffered some unintended consequence such as loss of your hair. I can’t tell you if your hair will grow back. Only time will tell.
