Valued Contributor Berba11 Posted April 23 Valued Contributor Share Posted April 23 As others have pointed out, something is amiss here. You had what looked like a pretty good result after 8 months from your surgery with Medispa, then it seemed to regress rapidly, which is quite curious. You've now had another surgery from a different clinic and with similar outcomes to what happened with your first surgery. A scalp biopsy to try and determine whether there's a previously undetected underlying issue would be a worthwhile investment before any further surgeries.

Senior Member jjsrader Posted April 23 Senior Member Share Posted April 23 This is very unfortunate. I would get on dutasteride and oral minox & as others have written get your scalp tested before another procedure. You do one more later this year and you are basically done. This is what happens to a small % of patients - sometimes hair-loss genes overpower all attempts to stop it & the scalp is just not suited for long-term retention of donor grafts in the recipient area.

Regular Member Knightrider Posted August 19 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 19 I contacted Eugenix, they also accepted the fact that the results are very poor. So, they insisted to take minoxidil now. Regretting going to Eugenix. Very poor results. Seems like they have paid reviews everywhere on the internet.

They shouldn't be forcing you to be taking min to correct their transplant... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Knightrider Posted August 20 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 20 They asked me to take 2.5mg oral minoxidil. Stay away from Eugenix for HT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
