Growing Hair On Previously Bald Temples.

[bluemoon1212]

Title says it all. Started wounding again two weeks ago and my hairline has blown the f*** up with tiny, pigmented hairs. minoxidil, wounding, dutasteride, and a couple supplements used to bolster the mechanisms of each. Still shedding like a b**ch, but good things are to come.

Here's a picture for reference. This was a couple weeks after I started treatment; maybe a month.

Looking impressive there! So you've seen all the temple growth within the last 2 weeks?
For how long previously were you on this regimen? How long on duta? What size dermaroll?dermastamp?
I've been on duta going on 7 months, finasteride for a year prior . Use minoxidil twice a day and dermaroll sporadically with a 1.5 but only peach fuzz wth an occasional long hair sprout on temple but I shed it after like a month.

Any hair you see that has the growth characteristics of a hair that sprouted two weeks ago sprouted after my wounding.

The super bald temple was from like a year ago. I've been off and on minoxidil and sh*t many times. I've been on dutasteride over a year. Don't feel like listing it all out. 1.5 mm depth using stamp.

How has that been working out for you? I'm actually thinking of starting to do that for my temples.

Please forgive my ignorance but what is wounding?

dude wounding is smt you do by rolling your scalp with generally 1.5 mm dermaroller. There is study claiming that it is warning the follicules about to die by pumping the bloods wounded zone, not sure about the way it works. Some found it beneficial, some didnt

 

[Johnmpb]

Wow nice. What supplements?

 

[dr75]

Wounding is greatly underestimated. The only way of growing long lost hair is wounding/dermarolling. It works very fast. Combined with antiandrogens and minoxidil, it does wonders.

Are these things expensive? Need to be maintained by changing needles or anything like that? I want to give it a try

nah..its like 3 dollars, if the needles brake just use new one so you dont injure yourself with damaged roller

Do you bleed/how deep?
How often do you wound?

thanks

Do you have better photos? Same angle a bit more distant.

 

[JohnOKelly]

Is there a general guide anywhere as to how to do this? I don't really want to end up scarring myself or strolling around with bright red temples lol

1.5mm roller once a week with no topicals after rolling.

 

[neddy2016]

Isn't it better to use topicals to encourage growth?
