Regular Member SY7 Posted August 14 Regular Member Share Posted August 14 Best result ever seen imo. I’m so freaking curious what he does with his own developed technique. I heard something with vacuüm extraction. No idea what that means but this result is so amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar none. Some people like to put Pitella and others in the conversation with him. Sorry, but no. They are not worthy. Zarev stands alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gotta admit, it does look very natural in the video. If I saw you the first time without knowing where you were before, I would have not suspected that you had a HT. That’s how natural it is in the video, very age appropriate.

Regular Member omarca Posted August 30 Regular Member Share Posted August 30 Hey @mtb amazing results ! Iam leaving my hair long also. Just curious how long is your hair now in the last photos ? 2-3inches ? Thanks bro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member mtb Posted August 31 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 31 (edited) @omarca The hair from the first procedure is pretty long. Maybe 6 - 8 inches. The hair from the second procedure is all different lengths but most are probably 3-4 inches. Here’s a pic I took a couple weeks ago after blow drying. The long hairs are from the first procedure. In the second picture you can see what my length was at 10 months from the first procedure. Edited August 31 by mtb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member mphoenix Posted 11 hours ago Regular Member Share Posted 11 hours ago (edited) mtb - Last question I'll post on your topic before starting my own. Feel free to delete this from here as well mods. I am having my surgery with Zarev January 25th. I am not getting on any meds long-term and he is ok with that. That being said, I would do his topical/minoxidil solution short-term if it will help with the grafts taking. I would do it for a year. However, I know their is shock loss when you stop. Would that undo whatever benefits I had from taking it (know there is shock-loss, but curious if it will help with the adoption of the new grafts)? Wanted to see if being on it short-term will help with adoption, then can get off of it later - but if there is no real benefit to that since I'm not on it long-term then I'll hold off.

Congrats, phoenix. I'm not really sure if the min/fin helps the grafts "take". They will "take" with or without the min/fin combo. As I understand it the min/fin combo helps the hair grow faster, makes the hair 10-25% thicker, and keeps the hair in the anagen (growth) phase for longer. So you'll get faster growth and more coverage essentially. Feel free to dm me. I'm happy to share more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe minoxidil will help your hair transplant grow. However, it will maintain your native hair. Medication is always strongly advised before getting surgery.

Regular Member mphoenix Posted 6 hours ago Regular Member Share Posted 6 hours ago Thanks all! I will likely follow-up with you too as it gets closer mtb, appreciate the offer so much. Had some bad experience with Minoxidil in the past (heavily used it for 12 years - over the recommended dosage - and really gave me bad smile lines early on (27, I'm now 40:)). Prefer after that experience to stay off of it going forward. Dr. Zarev's patients don't always use it - it is recommended but not required, and leaning towards that then at the moment. If it was to help shorter term with the grafts taking I would use it, but as I don't plan on longer term, think I'll hold off. hair_transplant10: I had a consultation in January '23 before his rate/demand increased to the current levels.
