Re: My Experience with Hair Loss Treatments My initial dosing was 1 mg every day, then a period of 1 mg every other day, and then finally, a period of 1mg on Monday, Wednesday and Friday (i.e., three times a week). Yes, side effects were reduced on a reduced dose, and my hair still maintained...

Re: My Experience with Hair Loss Treatments Can I ask your history with finasteride? How long have you been on it? As detailed above, 7-8 years. What were the sides? It didn't/doesn't make me impotent and nor did it prevent me from having sex. In all areas (with reference to the previous two...

Post-Operative at 3.5 Months Here is the right side of my new hairline ONLY 3.5 months after the procedure. Not the greatest photo, sorry, I will endeavour to do better when I have more time. The right side of my hairline had receded further than the left (perhaps by 0.5cm), so this gives a...

Pre- and Post-Operative Photos I have attached my before and after photos:
