First off, let me state that I think this guy should definitely go for a hair transplant. Yes, at his age. As long as hairloss has stabilized, he's on finasteride, and can afford it, he should be fine. My hairloss was stable by 22 having started finasteride at 19. His recession is very pronounced and there is...

It's been shown to be MUCH less common to grow at temples and in my experience I saw no benefit in that area. Just want this guy's expectations to be realistic. I've been on it for 11 years and I've never seen any observable improvement to the hairline from taking finasteride. It will work on templates...

Rutt, What you do is really a question of vanity and whether you want to be performing at the 70th or 90th percentile in life. What you've laid out is a balding pattern that will likely take many years to materialize. I didn't have that problem. I lost most of my hairline in 6 months and was...

The reason that Propecia is sold in 1mg is because MOST men get the full effect of finasteride at that dose while the side effect profile is quite low at that dosage. If you go up to 5mg, you're going to get very little imcremental benefit, but you WILL see side effects mostly like, specifically...

Re: Mann02's Story - ( hair really balding please i need hlp) This is spot-on. I've been on finasteride since I was 19 (I'm 30 now). I got on it right as it came out. Never experienced any side effects other than a little decrease in libido for a couple of weeks at the start. Nothing since. I'd be a...

Thank you. :punk:

Thinning was moderate and not nearly as pronounced as front. I'd say he transplanted about 1000 3s and some 4s in the crown, just enough to get believable coverage without wasting supply to be used in the front. I'm also 6'3'', so I have not been as emotionally scarred by the crown thinning as...

Feel free to include anything from my post, except the re-posting of my pics. I pondered the tone of my post for a while as I was concerned it was too strongly in favor of them, but the bottom line is that they did a hell of a job and deserve the credit. I consider it karma that I give them...

PICS AT BOTTOM OF POST. I had a procedure performed by Dr. Wong in Vancouver in July 2010 and am still beside myself regarding how far he exceeded my high expectations. I apologize in advance if this seems obsequious. Dr. Wong initially quoted me 4,500 grafts and I ended up getting 5,001...
