Finally got my transplant last Tuesday from Dr. Lincov. Hands down AMAZING results already showing and when I tell you EXACTLY what he says he does from start to finish is EXACTLY what he does and this is his exact same personality and how he speaks. I’m VERY satisfied. From Registered Nurse to doctor thank you again Dr. Lincov and your team. Blessings.
My pleasure!!! Thanks for the kind words. It was awesome having you in the clinic.
You’re not gonna see results after a week!😂
@@thewalruswasjason101 Bro what are you talking about you do. Not the FULL effect but you do see improvements.
Update your pic without your sock!
@@ezragonzalez8936 In time
I deeply appreciate that you said the reason why it costs so much is because you want to retain great staff with amazing skills. Your humility and appreciation to your employees is so refreshing.
Finding and retaining great help in one of the most expensive cities in the world is very costly, but so worth it!
Lol, he just want stay billionaire
Can you do a skin cancer video? I feel like there isn't enough awareness regarding this.
Moderate sun ☀️ exposure is key to prevent it .
@@theancientsancients1769 Dermatologists cannot prescribe any amount of safe sun exposure. For many individuals, sun exposure can cause damage very quickly, even in less than 5 minutes.
That's the main "physical health consequence" of baldness. UV damage, e.g., skin cancer is significantly more prevalent for people with no/much less hair. Androgenic alopecia also considerably worsens the quality/"thins your skin" (all layers except the galea). I've not found studies on this, but since hair follicles are also involved in healing damaged skin/wound healing, there might be other adverse effects not scientifically investigated/known.
Wear a hat, use sun block and limit sun exposure. I have done this and have had skin cx 2 times.
This is a small thing, but I love how you refer to your videos as “our channel” and “we have a video.” It just shows how much you appreciate your team and it’s amazing to see.
It's definitely a team effort. And I surely have an amazing team.
@@drgarylinkov Not sure where to ask this, but as far as the scientific literature i've read over the last few years indicates, swelling isn't the villain it used to be deemed as for recovery. Seems that despite the relief cold or elevation (from RICE) might give from pain or pressure, more blood flow to the area seems to help the area heal better.
Would this apply to a hair transplant, too? Seems another important factor in recovery is sleep, so resting slightly more horizontal after a procedure might be conducive to better sleep and more blood juice to the head to nurture and heal the grafts. It's also totally possible the swelling around the head would just induce headaches and pressure to the point they can't sleep at all.
What's the good Doctor Linkov's take on this.
Cheers for all the insight,
Love how understanding you are about people's budgets, yet remain adamant with your staff and clinic structure. May you always have a full client list!
Finasteride does not “lower testosterone”, it lowers DHT. The medication actually RAISES systemic testosterone (by about 10-15%) as less of it is being 5 alpha-reduced and converted to DHT.
Yes, but DHT is a much more potent androgen than testosterone. So, any effects of higher testosterone would be more than offset by the lower DHT levels. This refers most commonly to sexual side effects and motivation and energy levels.
❤❤
@@ordoabchao4202DHT has different effects compared to testosterone. DHT isn’t just some supercharged version of testosterone. So the video being reviewed is just straight up wrong with the testosterone claims, implications or not
@jahstinful from what I have read and experienced during the short period when I tried Propecia, I gather that DHT is in fact a (sort of) supercharged version of T. That doesn't mean that it can't have different effects, too.
@@ordoabchao4202 DHT is very androgenic but it is ONLY effective in the areas it's produced (prostate, skin and hair follicles) as an adult man since the hormone is intracrine in the tissues it's produced rather than endocrine like testosterone. It doesn't matter how adrogenic it is when it can't be used beyond the tissues it's produced. Most other areas in your body deactivates DHT by 3a-HSD and turns it into a very weak androgen called 3α-diol. Saying it's some super charged testosterone is straight up BS. If you replaced all your testosterone with DHT it would be effectively the same as castrating yourself.
The reason why you can get sexual side effects from finasteride is not because you lower DHT but because you raise testosterone by around 10% when you take it which means you will have a slightly higher conversion of testosterone to estrodiols and for men that are especially sensetive to estrodiols will experience problems with their libido.
Best Channel for hair transplant knowledge hands down.
Enjoyed this video. Very informative. Also, your eyebrows are looking great
I'm confused. I've read up on finasteride. Based on what I read it does not lower testosterone
Just found this channel after my haurtransplant. Done in the Netherlands. Binge watching since yesterday. Great videos!
I'm using a combination of both. The result is not instant. It took like a year to really see the result (at least, for me). I like my hair now. It's thicker, not thin like before, also less gray hair like before too. And being a diabetic, have to really watch out for sugar/carbs intake too.
Where can you get the pills?
@@lasvegas1633 I'm using topical solution. Not pills. It's less effective, but I just want to target my scalp hair, not other parts of my body coz finoxidil can affect hair growth at ur other body parts too.
Very interesting that hair became less grey
I was on Finasteride for a full year, yes I am a woman. Doctor proscribed it for my hair loss. I wish I had this information 12 years ago and UA-cam contents were a thing back then.
My long lost partner
Ty for the honesty and comprehensive breakdown to a great video Doc! 🙏
I’m over 50 and glad I still have a full head of hair. I’m Native American and guess it’s just genetics. But I had severe Covid 2 years ago and my hair really thinned out and thought it was permanent but it’s back to full thickness again 🙏
heard this a lot that people that got covid led to them losing their hair, wonder if the good doctor will talk about this..
No, its a lymph issue but these people won't listen unless I have a white coat on. Its caused by cooked foods.
@@tgd02 Piss off with this BS!
@@Insp.CountMortisWinshipKlaw which foods?
@@tgd02 All cooked foods are acidic. Its burning your hair off like chemo.I stopped mine dead in its tracks. You need to switch to 100% raw fruit. You need to ease into it to stop a healing crisis which will cause you to lose more hair. Fruit reveals before it heals so take it slow. Be on 1005 raw fruit within 4 weeks. The best fruits are melons, citrus and grapes and berries
Advice for the people who want to go Turkey. I got my hair done at Sulehair; literally painless. My hairline turned out fantastic and it's only 6 months; however only downside is the consultation; it was somewhat rushed and felt like a transaction...but the result was great. In Australia it would have cost 7 times the price.
Which method did you get? And how much did you pay? Did you do 3 500 grafts?
i have been on Dutasteride daily at 0.5mg for the past 3 yrs, no side effects whatsoever, in fact im happier to see noticeable improvement in my hair density and stopped worrying constantly on my thinning hair
Could you also do a video about the current status of research of hair follicle cloning and also about the research on the use of Scube3 protein for hair loss?
Will you be doing a video in the future about balding in women or the pros and cons of medications such as spironolactone? Love your videos!
Personally, i been on fin for 15 yrs. I started w/ 3x a week then increased to 4x a yr after 3 yrs. W/ combination of laser therapy. After the 5 yr mark i began taking it daily while using laser 3x a week. So far i have kept all of my hair at 40 yrs. I tried taking minox but had sides so i stopped. 👍✌️
what are your sides with minox?
@@acc1tester398 In case you don't get a reply, I'd say that the big and common ones are redness and increased facial wrinkles.
There are some less common sides that can be outright atrocious.
@@23mxk hi, that's what I noticed apart from hypertrichosis which I consider to be easy to deal with. I noticed my dark undereye has worsen after 2yrs of using minoxidil and I'd say the gains is very minimal, only vellus hairs in the hairline. So I'm stopping to see if the dark underye to improve
@@acc1tester398 discomfort breathing during the day. If not mistaken this was designed for people w/ blood pressure issues . But my brother tried who takes medication for pressure & had no sides.hope this helps.✌️
0 side effects for me from minoxidil but not the oral one.
I didn't know anyone before that had a side effect. Just righting this so others can read it.
How about a video discussing color of hair and it's relevance to transplantation? Are grey hairs viable? Do darker hairs do better than lighter?
We can do a short on that for sure
My older brother started balding in his mid 20s while my hairline stayed strong, I used to poke gentle fun at him over it. I just kind of assumed that maybe I'd be one of the lucky few who get to keep their hair into old age, we have a few men in my family who have done.. then about a year ago at 31, my balding started making up for lost time. I went from a full head of very thick hair to the receding hair line and pretty intense thinning on the crown very quickly. Karma for my jokes at my brothers expense. Needless to say he's enjoying it very much.
I started losing my hair when I was really young. There was one guy I used to work with way back who had this thick impressive head of hair and always made fun of me. He would be the last guy I'd thought would lose his hair. Fair enough, I saw him on Facebook about 10 years ago. He's now bald as a coot. You just never know what's further down the path.
I'm currently 25 and have been taking minoxidil for 7 months and it definitely restores lost hair, I had a few bald spots that now have hair that had been completely bald
Seems to depend on the person. Some people report great results, but for others it seems to have no effect at all.
@@bulletz9280 right, it took me about 6 months to see results but it is still getting better I think
I used minoxidil at my 23 and has good results but at 26 it stop work. Now I'm 30 and my hair said bye.
And it suc... Many people have good hair at their 70! why the hell someone have to lost it at 25.
Im in depression all this time because of that.
@@NKN82 I know how you feel. I’m 29 and was losing it steadily when I was around 21. By the time I was 27 it got so bad I just had to shave it all off… I hate it
Do you use PRP to prevent further hair loss?
I lost my hair in my early 20s and never thought about it much until I found your videos a couple of months ago. I'm 47 now, and to be honest, too busy to dwell on it. What's your opinion of the recent Japanese research that grew hair in a lab ?
mind saying what research is it?
@@signordon1987 Do a google search for "fox news Cure for baldness could be on horizon as Japanese researchers generate mature hair follicles in lab", there was some small breakthrough from Japan a few months ago, but apparently it's not going to amount to much. Such a complex subject.
This is the future,i knew it's coming, it's a matter of time.
Honestly i feel like balding is a business. It should have a perfect cure by now but that would just ruin all the business.
Doctors can't cure many diseases. Medical science hasn't progressed much in the past 50 years
Well to be fair, the business is the cure but I see what you’re getting at.
hi doc! Big fan here! Can you please do a short video on FUE recovery? I.i., returning back to strenuous exercising, having your first shave, using normal shampoo, etc?
As much as having AA for 3 years starting at 17 was a very intense life adjustment. 20 odd years later in this Instagram world we live in, I'm thankful I had to learn to ngaf. School, work, life, I had to just make people accept me because life didn't stop cos you think my hair looks janky.
Dear Dr Linkov, could you please talk about female balding, especially related to insulin resistance and thyroid problems, how the could be treated (selenium, etc), how long it takes to recover? Thank you. 🙂
"I'm famous and people see me changing every year, but it's all natural" - celebrities not just being honest/open
I live in Chiapas Mexico and I've never seen a balding indigenous person. And they go gray around 80 years old.
Genetics my dear, strong genetics.
Never seen one over 5 feet tall!
$5,190.50 for the transplants, but how much would it cost including travel to and from, hotel, food during the stay...?
Doesn’t Finasteride INCREASE overall testosterone by decreasing the synthesis of DHT? Repeatedly in his video it’s mentioned that he experienced side effects related to decreased testosterone levels - of which is somewhat dubious if my above thought is correct.
Thanks for the great video!
You’re right, testosterone goes up, I didn’t make that correction in my comments.
Yeah finasteride has no negative impact on test levels, it's purely DHT reduction and therefore a slight increase in testosterone.
I thought this too and expected Gary to correct. Glad to see it followed up here
Since it increases T, does it mean gym goers will see some different results?
im curious too about this, seems logical that it will be beneficial
Possibly a video on dermititis on the SACLP and FACE and treatments moving forward for short term treatment and long term treatment and types of treatments available and trust worthy thanks 👍.
This would be awesome, also combined with eczema and how derma rolling affects this 🙏
Great video very informative. I just wanted to ask why didn’t you go over the prosthesis option
This was such a well documented video and thanks for your commentary.
I'm a month since my FUE in Turkey and it's a long road. The biggest struggle first month is the washing of hair with the foam and shampoo, washing hair everyday and not being able to apply a cream just made my scalp feel so dry. I eventually used aloe Vera gel after week 3. The itchiness just stopped like a week ago, the donor area. It wasn't a bad itch but there.
I didn't leave a feedback for my clinic when though they wanted a video of me while there, I prefer to wait the whole post op than leave a review on the day of the operation.
They were nice, professional and hopefully 6 months time I'll be able to document my journey too but nothing before. I'm not going to send hopefuls to a clinic just because they were nice on the day of the OP.
20:28, if Finisteride is to prevent hair loss, and I've had HT of good follicles to transplant area, what's the logic behind using it? It's so depressing to think one would use a tablet for life at a risk of E.D, I'd rather be a bald head with a full hard one than Tarzan with head full of hair and got a floppy snake 🐍.
Thanks for the video.
Hey there! Could you share where you went? Also how many grafts and how much it cost you? Thanks!
So how did it go and did you keep using the medicine ? Just curious
One note about the mentioning of lower testosterone: taking finasteride actually increases testosterone levels in the body, as the testosterone that would be turned into DHT is simply not converted.
But then the negative feedback mechanism kicks in and it can be converted to oestrogen via aromatisation.
No use of testosterone if it's functional variant itself is not available.
Ik a couple hair transplants clinics in America one in Florida and a couple in Illinois that charge 6k-9k depending on much hair grafts. The 10k-25k is usually in places like Cali n New York with pricy high standard of living
May I ask what would cause extremely rapid receding hairline? I always had a little bit as I am 36... but in the passed 2 months it has become BAD. If I continue at this rate I will be completely bald by the time i'm 40.
Doctor, are there any studies looking at whether there is correlation between the way hair grows in as a baby and the way it is lost later in life? Is it a last in first out type of thing? Or is it nothing?
I am confused. Everything I have read says that finesteride actually raises testosterone levels by 10-15%?
Really? Never even heard of a raise in test.
I wanna see examples of patients that are not suitable for hair transplant. I am Norwood 6-7 so I’m wondering where is the limit, when do you think it’s not worth going on that journey.
interesting that early transplant patients like Sinatra, Elton John and myself all had the operation and ended up wearing wigs since eventually the donor sites get exposed as you age and you have no choice. If I had my life to live over I would shave my head in my twenties and save the embarrassment and cost of all this nonsense.
I truly appreciate the thoughtfulness of these videos. Your comments are insightful and helpful. Were NY a realistic option for me, I'd certainly be interested in a consultation from City Facial Plastics. I live in the LA area. Can you recommend any doctors or clinics in the area? I've tried Googling the topic, but there are so many garbage results through which to sift. Any input would be sincerely appreciated.
Dr Gary's I am quite shocked many plastic surgery procedures, hair graphs, and as you and the gentleman who made the video mentioned dental procedures that I can assure should either be done with general anesthesia as opposed to needles stuck in an already super sensitive mouth for a root canal. Xanax or Valium wouldn't help much as I already am prescribe the afore 1mg 3 x daily. Not because I like them, I've been on them for 15 years due to panic attacks and night terrors. I have terrible panic attacks so my Dr and I choose this and I still suffer horrible night terrors. It is unbelievable I get stuck in dreams where I'm being tortured by very evil people. I can't recall if I feel pain but I don't wake until someone hears me scream and shakes me. I'm not quite sure who the people in those dreams terrorizing me are but thinking now likely my last dentist with his evil needles and chair he never warns when he will push me up or down. Yeah I do need general anesthesia and then a needle prior to waking for that pain!
4:30 Saw palmetto? (also biotin)
Dr. Linkov, have you spoken about its use along with finasteride?
I remember the Internet forums saying 2020 was the year that hair loss would be “cured”😢
It's always 5-10 years away 😢
Doc really miss seeing another live surgery video!
Doc, what do we think about rosemary oil as a substitute for Rogaine? What do we think about rosemary oil for hair regrowth in general?
12:28 but aren't test levels not still the same (or slightly higher) on finasteride? If test is not getting converted into dht then wouldn't there be marginally more instead of less test?
Correct, fin does not decrease testosterone levels.
yeah this guy is very uninformed
i love modern MBA!! thanks for reviewing
I just love the way you react to the videos I won’t get bore watching you all the time dr gary😂 more power to you ❤️ waiting for such videos lots of love from Pakistan 🇵🇰 ❤️
I have a question about finasteride and minoxidil , At the clinic they told me that the Topical solution that they produce that contains finasteride and minoxidil + other ingredients would be enough treatment without the pills and would also be reduced side effects of the medicine. My question: Is the topical solution as effective as taking the pills? if not do you recommend taking the pills (finasteride and minoxidil) and topical solution at the same time? Also would it be better if I got a pill cutter and micro dose finasteride and minoxidil with the topical solution? what do you think Doc. Also thanks in advance.
I got my 2200 graf procedure there. Highly recommended. I am planning to go next year for a re touch.
Love the video,just found your channel amazing thanks.
I suffer since 35 years from hair loss, and hope that a cure will be available within the next five years for everyone. Never give up. :-)
There is one. It's called finasteride
@@capo4ever334 I know, I am talking about a cure that is allready in development, creating new hairfolicles on the bald head, where finasteride or Minox cannot help anymore.
@@capo4ever334 It's just a treatment.
And I since 20 years old Fkk youth boy
@@Ccccccgggggggjj Hair loss is very underestimated, especially by people who have a full head of hair. Furthermore it can affect your entire life, career, and personal life. This is the bald truth, and a heritage that can be dispensed with
"Some people use staples" why was that funny? Why did I laugh at that?
Eyebrows looking good!
Does a hair transplant infection cause significant risks of graft survival? I am on month 3 and am currently applying the antibiotic I just got from my doctor
Dr.Gary if some one is using finasteride and minoxidil.....would you say don't use anything else like a store bought shampoo or conditioner that contains caster oil or DIY fruit blend hair rinse where u blend up strawberry and keep it on your head for a few minutes them rinse it off? Would you suggest only doing the finasteride and minoxidil only?
hey Dr. Would you recommend taking 0.5mg finasteride Monday, Wednesday and Friday? I know the regular does is 1mg a day but I am concerned of side effects. Do you think the 0.5mg dose schedule is enough to help stop balding?
side effects won't happen, they're a myth and not real, just take 1mg a day, or get a 5mg finasteride pills and cut them into 4th's and take 1 a day, that is the cheapest way to take them. Watch haircafe's channel on youtube
According to r/tressless, yeah.
They said I can’t get transplant due to my donor area being bad? I was in shock and showed two clinics and all rejected me….? Dr. Gary are you able to help me….my last resort would be SMP if I can’t get a transplant :(
Doctor I have a question. Is it recommended to stop taking finesteride and minoxidil before your hair transplant? As someone who has been taking both for a few years now and have decided to go through with surgery, I've geen told to stop taking it about a month before the procedure and was just curious on your thoughts.
if you've already been taking it I think just continue, from what I've heard they suggest you don't start before, so that the transplant doctor can judge the donor area better... however taking it before means that you wont need as many grafts as you've stabilised more hair
@Dimitri: The continuous intake of Finasteride is very important to protect the transplanted hair from attacks of DHT, and to keep the hair you still have.Using minoxidil on freshly transplanted sites, I would be very careful, would even suspend it for some time. Unfortunately, minoxidil and finasteride have a synergistic effect. The quality of the hair that is affected could decrease.
Don't stop finasteride but stopping Minoxidil a week before surgery is fairly normal
The "thinning hair" models shown so often have little to no hair loss. It's funny to me as someone with CONSIDERABLE loss. Also some of these men getting transplants must have severe self-confidence issues because their hair looked perfect already. But if you have the money to blow despite inflation and job cuts, then go baby go!
Their hair did not look perfect
We live in a culture of self perfection...
Being a doctor working in Istanbul, I completely agree that some hospitals and clinics are putting the patients lives in danger and not most clinics are legitimate. Being in this field of work I have been guiding patients to the most trusted and liable clinics and hospitals for all kind of treatments. You may write to me if you need any sort of medical related guidance. Great video Dr.Gary!
Dr Cinik is one I’m eyeing…you think he’s good option?
@@thewalruswasjason101 a bit over priced I’d say , but he’s very experienced and has good results . Make sure you’re going for DHI technique with DERMOJET anesthesia along with plasma therapy (PRP). Do update us with what price you’re offered .

I never knew most men had baldness. So me and the men in my family are just genetically lucky because we all have no balding? Both my grandathers and father died with a full head of hair.
How Old are you
@@RivenbladeS 36
That is in fact, correct. DHT is the main culprit which is a very stereotypically “male” thing.
Blessed that you are man. I envy you.
Hi DR Gary thanks for all the info you very helpful. you think i can benefit from using 1mg fin twice a week ?
8:50- and the more harsh truth is for someone is was depressed before experiencing hairloss, then later get on finasteride, Starts having all the side effect with no gains, will worsen their depression
your eyebrow is growing
Doctor, why don't you move to a cheaper State so we can come and use your services?
Because my family is here. But good news is that we will be offering some FREE hair transplant surgeries soon. Stay tuned.
Dr. Linkov, since you mentioned your Minoxidil video, I'm wondering whether one can use salicylic acid in a face cleanser, or whether that would interfere with the Minoxidil?
Speak to your derm but i would not expect any problems with this combo (provided the SA is used on the face and min on the scalp)
Best video ever so far!
What are your thoughts on verteporfin and how it might be used in practice one day?
Great informative content Dr. Linkov ! Thank you !
Btw, Is topical finasteride & minoxidil effective compared to oral tablets?
Also, can you open a second practice over here in CA 😎 lol
Finasteride is tablet form only minoxidil has both tablet and topical form
It is curious that people still think that Finasteride does not regrow hair given that we have numerous studies up to 10 years that categorically demonstrate that it regrows hair in the majority of people that take it. The data is there, why are these people making videos about baldness and finasteride without knowing this?
Thanks for the informative video!! Are mesenchymal stem cells and exosomes treatment equally effective? Some Hair Restoration businesses offer this treatment.
Hi Dr Gary, i have a question. i am a 27 year old female with natural dry 4c hair and dandruff. for the past few years i have been losing a lot of hair when i do my monthly wash (shampoo,conditioner and comb my hair out). Also i have been dealing with shedding of long and short hair strands with the white bulb attached. however i never see any bald patches on my head. do you think home remedies such as green tea rinse will help me? do you have any advice for me? thank you for your reply.
There's a special place in hell for the people who choose where to place the ads in UA-cam videos
Finasteride, originally prescribed to counter prostate hyperplasia, turned out to heighten the risk of more agressive prostate cancer at a later age.
Hi Doc, You have to get into Stem cell therapy. What is your opinion about it?
After the harvesting can you stop taking finasteride & minoxidil
Not sure where to ask this, but as far as the scientific literature i've read over the last few years indicates, swelling isn't the villain it used to be deemed as for recovery. Seems that despite the relief cold or elevation (from RICE) might give from pain or pressure, more blood flow to the area seems to help the area heal better.

Cheers for all the insight,
My grandfather only had a little hairloss at the temples when he died at 89. My dad is only 68 and has it at the crown as well. How is this possible?
I know two brothers close in age, one is 48 one 42. 48 has head full of hair, no balding, no receding while the other has been losing his hair since 30 and 42 is pretty much bald. Some ppl are just lucky.
You are looking at wrong familly, thats why. Male baldness is transfered through X (female chromosome) so you need to look at your grandmothers side of the familly to see why your dad is bald.
Genes are still randomized.
A mom and dad can have 5 boys. Let’s say they’re 6ft and 5’7. There’s a chance some are shorter than dad, some are taller than dad, some are even shorter than mom, etc. Dad just wasn’t lucky.
Everything is more expensive in the US, but not necessarily of better quality. If choosing to do it overseas I would roll the dice in S.Korea or Japan 99 out of 100 times vs. certain other regions.
Why not mention Dutasteride which is a more effective alternative to Finasteride?
Why do people get surgery in their home country for more money instead of flying to turkey? My inclination is to pay more and stay home because it’s too important to try and save money…but is 10K that prohibitive?
Hey, can you make a video (or comment response) sharing your thoughts on the effects of oral minoxidil and accelerated skin aging? This is something that is making me hesitant to take it as I have quite youthful skin and would ideally not prefer to have that side effect. I am not confident that it is entirely true though, so I would love your thoughts. Thank you!
Wear sunscreen
Hey Dr. Linkov, first and foremost thank you so much for your videos and all the knowledge that you share. Would you ever consider doing a video on Seborrheic dermatitis? I suffer from this condition and this hear i had a 4700 graft transplant. My conditions comes in waves and it has affected me since 2016. I worry about it affecting my results of my hair transplants.
for how long does hair transplant surgery postpone full baldness
please do a video on why or why not use donor hair follicles from other parts of body than head, like belly hair, leg hair, chest hair etc.,
The textures and density are different than the hair on the scalp.
@@ZiL_MaR i for example have blonde hair but Brown eyebrowns and brow chest hair
Would look really funny if I would transplant them lmao
@@raupenimmersatt6906 lmao … you could always dye your hair to match all of it 😊😇
Is it true that coconut oil and garlic helps with hair growth?
Hey Doc, I would love to know what you think about the mix spray(fin and minox). How does it compare vs pills.
Dr Gary's videos' catchier than chicken pox is.
Gentlemen, one of my biggest takeaways:
A hair transplant is not a replacement for medical therapy (taking pills like finasteride and minoxidil)
You agreed with finasteride and minoxidil being the only 2 medications for hair loss. Wondering what the potential for medical practice is of drugs such as dutasteride, ru58841, CB, or other pharmaceuticals
I assumed he just meant the only FDA approved ones.
I went on Propecia/Finasteride many years ago and the side-effects were VERY intense for me.
I flushed my 3 month supply I had and NEVER wanted to touch that horrific drug ever again.
Thank god the side effects eventually went away after a few months.
I then decided to accept my hairless & shaved my head ever since.
In the video he mentioned that "he did not do his hairline any favors when working late". What did he mean?

age of 39 my entire hairthinning but middle is worst + some other areas like patches. I still have terrible itching/burning on those areas and my dermatologist said (stres = seborrheic dermatitis). Im so confused.
Same thing happened at 36 (but most of my hair was back in one to two years back).
Any advices would be most appreciated.
