4 months, PICS INCLUDED Let me know what you think?

[manzaldo]

I started about 4 months ago, thanks to the help with this forum.

I used:

minoxidil 5% - 1 to 2 times a day. I found twice was too much b/c it made by scalp very irritated and face felt big?
Nizoral - as needed for irritated scalp. once a week.
Reviogen - 1 times a day
Reviogen Shampoo - 2-3 times a week
I rarely used "normal" shampoo but when I did I used hair thickening shampoo by Loreal.

To be honest I did my best to keep to the schedule but failed serveral times but I am happy with the results and look forward to the future.

In case you are wondering it cost me about $250 for all of the product for a 3-4 month supply depending on how much you want to use.

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK?

ALSO, do you recommend I change anything, I am thinking of getting some tsal shampoo to help with scalp irratation. Thanks in advance for replies.

looks like it's starting to do it's job. i wouldn't mind seeing what it looks like dry

Congrats, good things are happening.

 

[kalbo]

Nice results, but I'm sure it would be much better (especially in the long term) if you add finasteride or dutasteride.

 

[Jojje]

hmm i think it just looks longer and darker.. but i could be wrong

 

[Lorenzo_91]

Also do nizoral more than once a week.

 

[emery]

my result didnt come in until around hte 6 months mark, so hang in there

 

[Whyatt]

Nano shampoo, Revita shampoo, spironolactone cream, Apple poly...I guess u dont want to try propecia? Finpecia is a great option if u´re cashdry..

I think your hair is darker and longer, and also thinner than ever. Zero results.

How can others say nice results? Being politically correct? Of course his hair will look different if he dyes it black, grows it out longer, and then combs it to the side to cover some of the baldness.

You need to add a DHT blocker and get a hair transplant.

I am not trying to be rude, but facing the ugly reality of situations is better for people in the long run.

Go take a powder, Homeboy.

I don't see too much improvement, either, though. I'd think about a DHT inhibitor pretty seriously if I were you. It and rogaine compliment one another pretty well.

JUST TAKEN TODAY.

OLD PIC in Oct. 2006

My vortex seems to have gotten a little better. Any suggestions.

I thought Revogen was a DHT inhibitor. I use it once a day with shampoo often. Along with minoxidil 1-2 times a day and nizoral 1-2 week.

Any help I would appreciate.

THANKS.....

talk to a doctor about propecia

 

[retropunk]

While Revivogen claims to be a DHT blocker, it's a poor DHT blocker at best. The same can be said with most shampoos like Nizoral.

If you want a real DHT blocker, you should go with dutasteride or Propecia.

Looks good.

Try to use consistent angles, makes it easier for you to see the gains. But your vertex is doing great it appears. From my own personal experience the crown is coming in last.
