Good for him. I agree zix seems pretty dubious tbh. I tried switching from OM to it to maintain my hair gains and I started shedding like a dog. Pretty sure I would have dropped a Norwood level in a few weeks if I persisted. And previously I was never even balding aggressively, I crept up to a NW2.5 at my worst.

I think he just receded and stabilized. I know the 'mature hairline' thing is seen as a cope by some but it does happen frequently irl tbh

Would you say zix is more effective than finasteride?

You’ve “maintained” because you didn’t have hair loss to begin with.

there is clear vertex thinning in the first photo

you can see that because relative to the surrounding areas the vertex is visibly thinner

you can almost see scalp

Not clear at all. Good density, growing uniformly, you freaked out about nothing and now smugly discuss your (unnecessary) snake oil “maintenance” regimen. Weird.

I think with a lot of these treatments it comes down to the individual

I happen to be a good responder to LLLT and zix, others might not

I would say though zix alone is not enough at all, most of my results have come from LLLT
