What happened to the other 3? Anyway, for those who still care - Me at about a year (+ eventual 1mg generic finasteride): https://www.dropbox.com/sh/9c92tbxbhgtxhfe/AACh60NoEJHVxbjIYstSIsETa?dl=0 Baseline & Ongoing: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/hikaqgasvxrtnhc/AABLiOTjHV56XDUZSwD2vCyia?dl=0 Verdict? No...

My take on things: Does it worth 5k? No, at least given I don't think it made any difference at all for me. Not sure about the more expensive clinic. Do I regret it? Yes, at least at the moment. Ultimately, I feel foolish buying into a hyped/hopeful/unproven thing before seeing results. The...

Not quite. a lot of procedures involving stem cells will harvest via fat from liposuction (or from blood plasma I think) but most just inject the refined cells into the scalp and hope for the best. the reason people (including me) were hopeful w/ Kerastem was that it also actually transplanted...

I don't think that is the same, that sounds like what other places already do in the US and use harvested stem cells… but the key difference w/ Kerastem is supposed to be the fat injections to go with them

#1 seems like it #2 where's the actual info Geneva worked? #3 should not be an issue, if not because thats what the clinic claimed, but most EU countries require treatments are at least safe (if, maybe not effective) #4 I did #5 Definitely poured one out for compounding interest

I am secretly hoping that because I had quit minoxidil shortly before treatment, and started finasteride shortly after… that who knows, maybe part of my disappointment is that my own head is all out of whack, maybe in a year I'll have some kind of regrowth and newfound stability. (clings to hope...

@sofia glad to hear it seems to be working for you, though I would love to see the pictures for some actual density comparison if you could get them just for curiosity's sake

I haven't done photos for this round yet, but I will give my 2 cents at the 6 months mark (with the disclaimer also have been on finasteride) I definitely have yet to personally notice/appreciate any real gain in overall density/hair strength/resiliency, and part of me wonders if the 10-30%...

At the end of the day, we don't have sample sizes (nor even the length of experiment) to say whether or not it is a scam. The FDA trial is not cheap and has to count for something. I'm more expecting it to be disappointing than a scam (though I wish the 'no shock loss' had turned out true, guess...

Well, its a gray area. The USA site is in regards to their research still undergoing trials, I am guessing nothing about it could be called 'marketing'. The clinic only ever quoted "most people see 10-30% regrowth" which is a huge range, but at no point was any of the results guaranteed. I am...

I'm tempted to contact the clinic in NJ (closest to me) that's part of the trial to see if they'd use actual hair count tools, they did use that equipment in Belgrade For what it's worth, I got a haircut today and my haircutter said it seems thicker than last time, but I'm not sure it's from...

If you're saying you were at a rave, might you have been on some other drugs? They don't always have the best impact on one's libido.

I had a recent bout of alopecia areata on the back of my head, and when I went to the dermatologist he injected corticoids into my scalp to "chase away the white blood cells attacking the follicles", so its possible there's some interaction. 3 months later finally starting to get coverage back...

Well, I feel like my shedding went up and never went down like it is supposed to, and its really pretty awful to apply and generally made my hair look even worse and stained my sheets. I thought it was supposed to be hit and miss on whether one responds to it or not, so I just thought maybe I...

I'm not so convinced… to be honest its just really hard to tell. I feel like my temples and front of my scalp have only gotten steadily worse. Maybe the back is recovering some given the bald spot is recovering. The difficulty is that, I was using minoxidil earlier on and then stopped… so I...
