Hello there,
I am on month 2 after the procedure, can't really say if it got better.
They said from month 2 on I can expect hair to slowly stop falling, I notice that I lose maybe 100 hairs less on washing days but I am still losing a lot (400-500 hairs) when I wash.
I did recover well, although I was pretty bruised, not as bad as you
@jayeffbee, the first 3 days were the worst. They got 200 ml fat, I do not know the numbers but they said was quite good.
I guess one will have some sort of shock loss, it’s quite strenuous for the body and you are under anesthesia too. So my guess is at month 3 it might even get worse.
I can see a lot of very little hairs growing some very fine some quite thick, the hairs I lose are mostly long hairs but also shorter ones (maybe 5cm long and forth), my hair is waist length so…but there are a lot of little hairs I haven’t seen this many in a long time.
My dermatologist, Prof, Dr, bla, bla, says that I have CTE together with male pattern baldness, so my hair might continue falling, I have not found a cause for the CTE yet. At the moment I am trying to raise my ferritin levels they are at 32, I’m having Iron; vitamin B12; B5 and Biotin injections.
I can’t use minoxidil, I used it a couple of years ago but after 6 weeks I had a contact dermatitis, to the point of not being able to use make up, any kind of cream or anything for over 2 years.
The Derm gave me Betnovat scalp lotion, started 3 days ago, I’m supposed to use it for 2 weeks once a day, 2 weeks every other day and then once a week.
Would I recommend the treatment to anyone? Well, if you asked me in the first 3 days definitely not, but it’s early on.
We have not seen any great results here on the forum, as for the Swiss clinic I can’t judge so let’s wait for the US trial results.
