    how many grafts should be transplanted hair?

    I suggest you go to see several different surgeons. You will eventually receive a ball park figure. Just to say, 22 is rather young for a transplant. Guestimate wise, probably in the region of 1000 grafts.

    Spectral DNC-N nanoxidil

    I have'nt updated my blog for a while. Just to say, I have stopped using the spectral DNC-N for a while now. It did'nt do anything for me unfortunately. I've switched to standard regaine foam 5%.

    Taking an unplanned break!

    Flaming flaps. I can't tell you how your head or hair will be behave as each individual responds differently when they come off finasteride. I have stopped taking propecia for over 6 weeks before and I did not see any receding. There is no written proof of how fast people will start to recede...

    Spectral DNC-N nanoxidil

    It has been a while since I've updated on my blog. I've been really busy due to my new job. DNC-N for me does'nt cause further shedding on my temple hairline. What it has'nt done is grow new hair. At the start, I had brand new fine hair growing. They have gone unfortunately. I will try to put...

    Nanoxidil swollen eyes

    Simple answer. If you are getting side effects as described above, you must stop using it. Did you have a similar reaction with minoxidil? Just to say, I don't have any side effects from nanoxidil.

    Spectral DNC-N nanoxidil

    rwhairlosstalk, I read somewhere in this forum that nanoxidil does have some alcohol. I can't remember where I read it. It is in the new formula. As for Zapp. If you are allergic to minoxidil, you are very likely going to be allergic to nanoxidil.

    I'd like to keep the hair I have - what's the best combination?

    Just to say, not all doctors or physicians will prescribe proscar 5mg to people. You will also have to buy a pill splitter. So in reality, you will be taking 1.25mg of finasteride. I always say go for propecia 1mg first. Try that. See how you feel with it and then switch if you want. (1)...

    Do derma rollers help stimulate hair regrowth by themselves?

    My initial answer is no. No use by themselves. I'm using it with spectral nanoxidil to provide extra absorption into the skin.

    just got spectral dnc-n, what shampoo do i use?

    Just to say, I would not touch any oil based shampoo or conditioner. I can't vouch for it. Over the good ten years (coming to ten years), I have been on propecia since. I have been on and off, minoxidil (regaine), other rubbish on the way and now spectral DNC-N. DNC-lotion did not work for me...

    just got spectral dnc-n, what shampoo do i use?

    No shampoo is included with this. You should try 2% nizoral shampoo. I would'nt use it daily to be honest as it really dries your hair. Some people swear on using it daily. I can't stand the after smell as it is more like a smelly turd smell after a few hours. Sorry for the expression. If you...

    Treatment for my hairline?

    Jump straight to minoxidil. 5%. It works when you are younger. My biggest mistake was at 19 years old when I used for over 3 years. I thought it was'nt make any difference and stopped. Straight away, I moved to norwood 1.5. If your hair is not all dead at the temples, minoxidil can recover...

    Planning for children

    This will always worry every person in the book. I got a sperm count from my local hospital and my sperm count & mobility was above normal. Just to say, I would definitely get this checked out as each individual does behave differently. After reading up all the publications on pubmed, people...

    Spectral.F7 Astressin-B Topical Solution

    Coming to a full first month of use with this in combination with spectral DNC-N and dermaroller. Anything to report? No.

    Spectral DNC-N nanoxidil

    I've done a quick update on spectral dnc-n. Up to now, nothing much to say except that I don't get any streaks like spectral DNC-lotion. No apparent shedding, no hair gain or vellus hairs. However, hair does seem thicker. Could be the nice placebo effect though.

    Minoxidil flatlined at year 3. Will doing this make it bette

    Some people apply minoxidil to the scalp after they have washed their hair and towel dried it. Just to warn you, it does absorb better but you may feel dizzy. I've tried this before and got some head rush from it before. Take good caution.
