Rogaine Foam has completely filled in my crown

[Pavi]

....in just 4 months of rogaine foam twice a day here is my crown. My front has thickened but not like this!

That's awesome! Is that the ONLY treatment you used during that time frame, or were you using it in combination with LLLT and ketoconazole?

 

[Pavi]

I was also using LLLT, keto and viviscal

how bad was initial shed? And how well did it work up front? I want to start rogaine just at my temples, thats the only place im thinning so far. I too use viviscal idk why but i feel it does something for my hair lol probably just placebo but who cares!

Those new regrown hairs, what do they look like and feel like, the same as your existing hair?

Yes... But the rogaine could have just really thickened up my existing hair. Hard to say but the hair feels like it use to before I noticed I was balding

Initial shed was significant. My front just hasn't responded as well. I mean, it's definitely doing something in the front but not like the back

This looks photoshop'd to me.

Well it's not lol but thanks for the indirect compliment on my results. I have 0 reason to fabricate my results

awesome results brother, you're very lucky. My theory with you, is that you must have had a lot of miniaturized hairs that were completely shed, quickly with the minoxidil, then replaced with terminal hairs. I say this, because you have regrown a lot of terminal hair in the crown in just four months?? The hair must be short there, huh? like 1-2"?? I can't really see. Is the lighting the reason why your hair and skin tone look lighter in the after pic? How often do you apply it? 5%?

I apply 5% 2 times a day, use LLLT 3 times a week and use 1% keto. The lighting is a strange situation as I took the two pictures in the exact same bathroom. My front isn't coming along like my crown.... My
Crown is almost thicker than when I didn't notice my
Hair loss

Yeah man, congratulations!! You're in a different area of the bathroom and the lighting can play tricks. Your hair like immediately starting regrowing you lucky bastard!! haha... damn, if this could happen to me.

My
DHT is also very low... 17ng/dL (range 16-79) so idk if that has anything to do with it. I can grow facial hair and I have back and chest hair though

You never know man, it's possible. With THAT kind of regrowth in the crown, I wouldn't be shocked if OVER TIME, you regained a little in the front. Keep on it!! I would personally wait a few more months before starting finasteride and see what happens.

 

[Pavi]

Here is the front

 

[Pavi]

The picture on the right definitely does

Yeah it has but not like the back. I have curly hair so I can pull those curls over the hairline

See how my hair curls over the hairline?

 

[g.i joey]

are you taking these pics WITH minoxidil in your hair? is one with minoxidil and one without?

btw your results are amazing man, especially that this is just from rogaine, if you hop on finasteride soon you wont even remember the days you were worried about hair loss.

Yes the min is in my hair in the after pics. The hair looks similar without minoxidil in it as well
