It's really awkward reaching up on top of your head moving the thing around half blindly, isn't it? Even more fiddly in the areas with hair. Some spots the scalp tends to move a bit. If you watch microneedling on YouT, they stretch the skin tight over the areas as they move along. Really an advantage having someone do this for you. Wife is out for me, she doesn't even know half the sh*t I'm doing on my head. Maybe we should start a microneedling group and 
do each other?
do each other?Definitely does not look worse, which is really what one would expect--if anything--at 5 weeks.

Yup it's difficult to do the back/crown, but I use my mirrrors to make sure I hit everywhere.

Yes and one of those scissor arm wall mirrors would be ideal so you have both hands free. Now, I can hear the wife, "why is this mirror mounted on the wall?"
Looks exactly the same. You need a better camera

Ho lee shite
Excellent. Another diffuse thinner success story.
Skin disruption + minoxidil is for us the best way to regrow hair, almost comparable to a good hair transplant.
I second this.

Would Dermarolling + massage+ natural oils combination works? Minoxidil has its downsides. Could someone tell me what are the chance of getting skin infection while on dermarolling? Thanks.

Why don’t you read all the pages. All these questions are answered multiple times
The big point here is NOPE. But maybe. Some people have seen resulting just needling BUT if you want the best chance of results you need to use something like min.
Cough up and buy some seti and pge2.
Also don’t give up after a month. Or we’ll hate you. Cough. I mean that you deserve zero results.
You gotta go for MIN 5 months. Some people it’s taken 9 - 12 months to see results.
IF you replace the needles you have very VERY low chance of infection.

Exactly.. pretty annoying that you can literally see someone who has no need to help us, slowly lose their motivation as people continue to throw doubt, until they are forced to just leave a forum entirely, less than a day after signing up...
what a great community to be a part of...

Well here is my 1 month update....as on Monday it will be exactly 4 weeks since I started.
- Shedding has completely stopped....I used to have at least 5-10 hairs in the sink when doing my hair in the morning and for the last 3 weeks, I haven't seen any or very little and also none when I wash my hair in the foam.
- new hair is really starting to come through now...but as quite small and thin hair in its own right...Im a diffuse thinner on most my scalp, except the crown which was quite bad, but all the front seems to be all be it slowly filling in.
- my crown which is always been the worst affected area if I look closely in the mirror now has lots of small thin darker hair growing, almost like the stage above a peach fuzz, but not cosmetically desirable hair yet.
Ive tried many different things over the last 5 years.....things may have slowed the process down, but nothing has ever improved the situation....this is for the first time ive seen any improvement, albeit very small at this point.
If it carries on like this, I may do a 3 month picture comparison instead of a 6 as id imagine the difference would be fairly noticeable by 3 months, but we shall see....ill have my haircut like I did for the 1st pictures and get the GF to take them at the same angle in the kitchen and we shall see.
Not counting my chickens yet....but this seems to be working.

Goddamn... People have been whining forever about how there's no proper treatment and this was right there the whole time, since 2013.
Plenty of people have seen results, in this thread I can name @Kitedude and there's also the famous 2young2retire, both had success with needling only. I myself am gonna do it this way.
You got this guy, too, just by needling + Nizoral: https://www.reddit.com/r/tressless/comments/7uiwhh/progress_3_months_of_nizoral_and_infrequent/
In the study there's a group using Minoxidil and another just needling. Apparently, the group without Minoxidil had better results. See below:

So I'd say it's worth a shot.

Jeez you guys made this seem way worse than it is, just feels like some ants biting your head at its worst. And now up close it's obvious why so many people get no results especially doing like 0.5, man up and do 1.25-1.5 at least. Of course you will get no results when you're just tickling the top of your scalp
You want your hair back, dig in there for it
