Once you move transplanted hairs from a DHT resistant zone to a DHT sensitive zone, they maintain the same resistance to DHT because those hairs are genetically resistant to DHT, even though the person maintains the same skull, neck, face and "bludflow". Lol.

That's why hair transplants are (when done right on the right individual) a life long investment. No, it is a myth that all transplanted hairs miniaturize and fall after a couple of years without finasteride and minoxidil.

This thread is so silly.

How is this not pretty much a knockdown argument against anything but the based, pilled, and reasonable DHT sensitivity theory?

This poll on this thread has a 33 percent agreement. Out of 42 people that is hugely significant as 10 years ago we would be lucky if it was 5 percent. People are slowly waking up even with the presence of people like yourself spouting 'bludflow' like we are trying to say the world is flat! It's not a conspiracy theory, it's been proved so many times just dig below the surface and the studies are all there.

Why do you insist on making things up? First you claim I said to massage scalp when I said NOT to massage scalp. When did I say a few people on my laptop? I said 99 PERCENT go and check it one website out -

It's not even a debate, it's absolute fact.

Also If all transplanted hair was resistant to balding we would have very few bald celebrities but there are thousands, and the ones who have had even a good transplant required follow ups every 5-10 years. I had 2 sessions overall 5000 grafts about 15 years ago from a very reputable clinic in Belgium and would estimate 50 percent have miniaturized. My birth hair took 20-25 years so it follows the same process! It was still 100 percent worth it. However I've only recently, maybe last 5 years began realising why this happens.

The ironic thing is Justin Bieber has a huge Galea and vertical face lol you should know better, hence why he has had a hat on for years. I'm sure he will appear again with decent hair but it won't be an easy op hence why it's taking him a few years.

Because it's not true, I have personal experience and even the most famous hair transplant doctors in the world don't advise this - it's a constant process requiring top ups every 10-20 years for the vast vast majority of patients and every doctor I have ever spoken to advise a patient take the big 3 for the transplant to work at all, which would clearly not be required if the above statement was true!!!

I'm not on the big 3 and my transplanted hairs are maintaining just fine. I will never have hairloss again because those hairs are DHT resistant. Simple. You don't just go from super aggressive balding to almost 0 hairs falling in the shower or when I move my hand through my scalp without that factor.

By the way, the OP of this thread already admitted he's a Norwood 1 who never experienced any hairloss. He has no clue what he's rambling about.

Wait, really? That makes it even more hilarious

 

[justinbieberscombover]

People on this forum already told me my transplant will fall off in a couple years and yeah it didn't happen.

You can look up online and many hair transplant surgeons will confirm the result is often permanent without needing to take pills.

They are not lying. You cannot argue with facts.

Yeah. He said he will never experience hairloss "because his face is so symmetrical".

Why would anyone think you would lose in a couple of years? Most men start balding 20-30 years from birth so you have a while to go, like I said 10-20 years post op you will absolutely see a thinning.

Every doctor I spoke to before my ops told me I needed to take at least finasteride for long term results.

But I didn't and don't take any pills and I'm 15 years post op with about 50 percent of transplanted follicles remaining and I'm not complaining.

This is EXACTLY how it was explained to me by the very reputable surgeon in Belgium.

Maybe 50% of your transplanted hairs weren't harvested from a safe zone? Also you might have not reached your final pattern by the time you had that transplant.

Isn't that just retrograde alopecia? The relatively safe horseshoe hair isn't 100% safe, it also gets thinner over time..

I researched for 3 years before having the transplant and made sure the doctor was one of the most well respected in Europe I can guarantee they were harvested from a safe zone.

I believe if someone has very dense and thick hair on the sides the length of success will be longer, maybe a small percent will have very long term results or permanent if they are in their 40s for example as will be in old age by time DHT eventually does it's damage.

I would say my donor area was average quality so I wasn't expecting a miracle especially since I refused to take pills.

There's probably elements of this, my donor wasn't perfect.

But it's all relative in my opinion, even follicles in a perfect donor area will eventually succumb to the same process when transplanted it will just take a lot longer. I believe this is down to what's being discussed in this thread, I disagree that certain follicles are predisposed to be affected by DHT simply because they are on top of the head when every other hair in the body thrives on DHT. I believe it's due to DHT and scalp tension.

I agree the OP has gone massively off topic with his posts.

Do you think you could have prevented losing some density of your transplant with scalp massages and posture correction?

This thread is so silly.

The only existing study on the subject in many years of transplants disproves this. And what was 50 years ago was on one person and observed for only 2.5 years, without proper thickness monitoring techniques.
Those follicles that have begun to miniaturize may miniaturize elsewhere because they have already been affected by tissue remodeling and increased androgen receptor sensitivity/expression, need a longer follow-up time, at least 5 years, preferably 10.

It's hard to say for sure, but I believe neck muscles have played a big role. It's to simple to say posture as I think it's pretty good and I've worked on not having a forward head posture for years, but I do have really tight muscles all around front of neck/thyroid and shoulders. I have always done a reasonable amount of working out which hasn't helped. It's hard to explain and complex with the way the upper thoracic and cervical spine sit and meet.

My current aim is to loosen all these connecting muscles with massage and further posture work which is a slow process, to see if I can reduce the tension on galea.
Also my sleeping position is key, as when I lay with the correct thoracic spine posture I see instant but temporary results in hair texture. I also feel far better in the mornings as oxygen levels are much better when the thoracic spine is released. This usually fades as I get into my routine and hair goes more limp so it's a long term plan to shift the tension. But I'm certain this all has an effect.


If I do manage to loosen the scalp skin I don't even know if more tissue can reform under less tension, and if I don't see improvements in hair I'll know it's not worth the effort.

Also starting to look into injections or maybe at least will do in the future.

If it was all about that, we would see women going bald just like men. Women in our day and age work out a lot, including weightlifting exercises, and forward neck is extremely common nowadays among both genders. The factors you mentioned seem to only play a minor role in male pattern baldness. But I wish you good luck.
