Week 6 (or maybe 7) and im seeing lots of tiny new hairs all over my head. They are only a few mm long but are starting to become visible by parting my hair and closely examining my scalp. I tried taking photos but the camera doesn't pick them up yet. Hopefully in a few weeks they will start to...

Ha! Damn you iPad auto correct :-)

Week 5 and I'm shedding like never before. I've been on minoxidil and finasteride for a year now and have never shed like this... I hope it's worth it. I am seeing some new Venus hair so something is happening.

4th session last night. Still using an ice pack to numb/freeze my head prior to it. Might get myself some proper numbing cream/oil. Any consensus on the best to get? Is it Japanese Mint oil? I'm a diffuse thinner and interestingly it's easier to bleed where my hair is a little thicker (front...

@ganonford do you mean like this? http://immortalhair.forumandco.com/t9447p45-scalp-peeling-with-20-glycolic-acid-great-results Would be good to hear from the senior members on this? Could it be a good addition?:unsure:

Did my second session last night. I put a cold pack on my head for a few minutes then went hard at it with my 1.5mm. It still hurt like a mofo but was less painfull than the last time without the cold so I could go harder, deeper and longer :-) Like others, I'm getting blood spots and lots...

Session 2 tonight. I'm gonna try numbing my head (or a part of it) with an ice pack!

Do any of you do anything specific to prepare/clean/sterilise your scalp beforehand? ... Besides just washing your hair.

Got my 1.5mm today, Jeez it hurts! brought tears to my eyes - but if it works, its worth it. I took a couple of photo's afterwards so I can keep track of progress. This is after a shower with my hair dry a couple of mins after doing it. Drew blood so I guess im applying enough pressure. I'm...

Have read through this thread, really exciting stuff so bought my 1.5mm dermaroller on ebay and will follow the study (I am taking 1.25 of finasteride daily) Anybody got any progress pics?

just added 2 new photo's to the original post from today 24th of March. Some new growth coming through on the crown which I expect is the 4 months of minoxidil, hopefully the newer hairs will thicken up. Im only 6 weeks into finasteride & nizoral so lets see over the next few months if I can get some...

Im on Regaine about 3.5 months, pretty much since the beginning I've had dry scalp. It's a little flaky like dandruff. I shave my head to a couple of millimetres so my head looks a little dry. Any suggestions? Regaine twice per day, 1ml morning and night. nizoral 2x per week and H&S non itch...

Admin, that's big news. Was Propecia effective for you, how long we're you on it and have you maintained all growth and how long have you maintained the growth for?

Week and a half on finasteride, so sides except for an intermittent bit of ball ache. Yesterday I noticed that one of my eyebrow hairs had grown to over an inch long! Something is working :-) - - - Updated - - - Have stopped the CET, too many topicals so im going to stick with the BIG 3 and see how...

I got my Proscar from Dr. Singh. No problems, transferred the money. Quick shipment, lots of communication.
