As someone thats been treating hairloss for 14 years, 2 FUE procedures, and seen hundreds of before and afters, I cant really say his temples saw much change at all. I feel like I noticed more in the center than anything. Looked like more volume, thicker follicles, and some decent regrowth. Hes got a "mature hairline" and getting the low temple hairline back, theres only one way to do that! We suffer from bad before and after pics with this guy though. Different lighting, hair length, and didnt show his crown. Good info once again Dr. Linkov!
Yea nothing impressive in his journey. The before photo he has brown hair and in the final after photo his hair is basically black. So for me, it's just the lighting that has changed to create a better results. He probably gained some density but I wouldn't say a lot.
@@ADAPTATION7 no, hes just bad at taking proper before and after pics. Different lighting and different hair length is a HUGE no no, when showing "results". Also, people like to feel special so they manipulate clips and pics just to feel that. They do it on reddit, facebook, IG, twitter, tiktok...all social media.
His results are hard too with before after pics because he had the ideal type of hair recession, above the temples just the corners going back, this is super easy to cover up with certain hairstyles and just by the direction you comb your hair.
1mg finasteride blocks about 68% of the DHT. 5mg about 70%. More than 1mg of finasteride is wasted money. You have to switch to dutasteride, if 1mg of fin doesnt work.
its kind of funny, in my country finasteride 5mg is cheaper than 1mg, dutasteride is even cheaper, probably gotta try it soon, currently only using minoxidil + microneedling in my frontotemporal area and its doing miracles
I have like 0,5% recession only on the left side, like I lost maybe 30/40 hairs and I started to panic in my 30s, bros bald or full circles around the head in 20s and recovers somehow anyway. God bless you Dr. Gary, panic is gone.
If Dr Gary can't perceive much difference in the before and after photos, as well as openly discussing the physical difference of the shots, I am as ready to accept his expert view as I have always been!
Pretty much tried all of the pharmaceutical products and being hypersensitive couldn’t tolerate the side effects. The only thing that worked for me has been a supplement containing saw palmetto and pumpkin seed oil.
This is the second video I watched from your channel doc about hair loss. I remember you are recommending oral minoxidil over topical, apparently I can’t find anywhere near me or even online where to buy oral minoxidil or dutasteride. 😢🤦🏻♂️
I started oral minoxidil on dermatologist prescription but it didn't suit me well. I have lipedema condition and oral minoxidil increased my swelling in legs like crazy within a month.i experienced not just swelling but gained 14 lbs in 1 month. Hair grew like crazy on my jawline and arms, hair on scalp felt thicker as well, definitely impressive results in short time but side effects were high 4 me so I stopped ✋️ using oral one and resumed my topical minoxidil which works gr8 for me but oral one works faster, no doubt
What about using Tretinoin in conjunction with Minoxidil. It essentially works like the micro needling with it helping with penetration. But which one would you say is effective and better. Thanks for great knowledge as always
I'm a woman who had a hair transplant in 2012, but today all the regrown hair has fallen out, and I am pretty bald in the horseshoe area, just like my father and brothers. It doesn't work for everyone.
Hi! Sorry for that... But after the hair transplant did you keep using minoxidil? Thats something that only on these doctors channels they talk about, that even after a hair transplant, the minoxidil is to be used forever so that the hair folicols wont close again. Take care!
Thank you! I used Minoxidil for a few years, but I developed a vascular issue that affected blood flow in my brain. My neurologist informed me that the Minoxidil worsened my symptoms significantly because it dilated blood vessels.
@@Lisa-n6s Hi, so sorry for that! Being healthy is more important than hair, thats for shore! Probably the red light theraphy could be a good option to you. There is the iRestore helmet, its a big investement, but I think it has good results. Take care!

Isnt it a problem to have Minoxidil sloshing around in your blood throughout your whole body, when taken orally, seeing as you just want it to affect one area on your head only?
Step 1 to hair regrowth results: Take a photo of your hairline at a much more downward tilted head angle. Step 2 to show hair regrowth in a video: Take the same photo, but with your head less tilted downward and less direct light, and BINGO! More hair! 😮
Whenever I see comparison photos taken at different angles like this, I don't take the video seriously. If they're really effective, they don't have to cheat.
what about peppermint oil for hair growth? is that total 'snake oil'? seems like i saw references to real studies/evidence. why is it not more talked about/popular?
Taking a Pill in the morning and applying minoxidil in the evening takes 1 minute combined bud... Add 2 times microneedling a week investing another 10-15 minutes. If that's too much for you you're really just lazy.
Doc, what's your opinion about the shampoo called "Opensea". I've heard that it's very good, but you can only use it max. three times a week. Also is it better to buzz, shave your hair for better results, because having greasy hair that you are allowed to wash only every 3rd day can be an issue...🤔
The guy in the video (not Dr. Linkov) explains that that was the shedding period where the old weaker hairs are pushed out to make room for the newer, denser minoxidil driven hairs.
I use Dutasteride for 9 months already. Still hair loss. I have seborrheic dermatitis though which is incredibly stubborn and the scalp getting inflammed every other day.
If I take oral minoxidil and finasteride, can I take both pills at the same time? Is it ok if I pop both pills in my mouth and swallow them at the same time?
It can also cause alterations in your ECGs and cause hypotension, which can swing back to rebound hypertension if you stop.

Thank you for the video! :) I had a few questions, I have taken 0.5mg finasteride daily for approximately 6 years now and have taken oral minoxidil 1.25mg daily for 18 months. Whilst I have mainly maintained my hair, I cannot say that I have seen obvious growth of new hair. Why could this be? Also, if one is exposed to a lack of sleep for several weeks, can this cause shedding/hair miniaturisation? If so, how long does it take for the hair to fully recover once the sleep cycle is back to normal? Lastly, does microneedling have any benefit with oral minoxidil? Many thanks in advance:)
I’m just wondering why when this happens with finasteride, meaning that it stops working, not many say anything about it are quick to jump on minoxidil saying after some years it won’t work and you need finasteride. Of course finasteride is the best all end all. I know that. I’m just saying I’ve read for some people they go on with just minoxidil 🤷🏻♂️ I’m truly just wondering?? Has anyone been on oral minoxidil as long as finasteride has been around to definitively so it doesn’t work?
If you can’t tolerate finasteride as that caused me depression and anxiety, as it worked for my brother, what else is out there to prevent further hairloss? I’m currently taking oral minoxidil, I think it’s doing something, but it’s not stopping hairloss, just stimulating regrowth of hair that I already have.
Saw palmetto, L cistein, pure jello (tablespoon a day) and L reuteri yogurt. And do some blood work on how your thyroid gland is working. There. I’m not selling anything and don’t have an agenda
minoxidil came on the scene 40 years ago, I had it before I had a horrible transplant. minoxidil did nothing. if that's all that's available 40 years later, what sad situation
40 years and big pharma couldn’t come out on anything to treat permanently…. Refuse to reach to the core problem. It’s a money grab on treating symptoms. Like this doc. He also wants to sell his product. 1-2% is a buzzword, in real life the potent drugs will allways have sideeffects, you’ll notice it in time.
It’s mostly about your genetics. An unhealthy diet also comes with hair loss, low sexual drive as a bonus 😅 What I experienced, mostly supplements and things you apply on the surface only slower the hair loss process. Eventually balding is gonna happen till some point. What I experienced is surprising. I used to live in istanbul. Then I moved to Las Vegas and my hair loss started, after that I moved another dry city in south west Turkey. It’s been 5 years and my hair density went worse but not balding. It just becomes thinner each year. This year I spent about a month in istanbul. It was so weird, in the last week, I went to hair dresser and I couldn’t believe my top back side looked thicker. Holly crap what did I do? I didn’t even use my hair care shampoo in that period. What was different? Stress? Water quality? Yes! Tap water in istanbul is soft cause it’s collected rain. However in Las Vegas, Mediterranean cities, the water was always heavy, high in calcium oxide, lime and other minerals damaging hair. I’m looking for a filter that can be used in the shower. Idk maybe that helps.
@@paradisekohchangstyle2150I'm a woman with some hair loss/ thinning at the hairline. I have used nizoral shampoo for dandruff for the last couple years and had no idea that it could support hair growth until watching this video 😅 ... in fact, I had this video playing WHILE I happened to be in the shower washing my hair with it 😅
Let me put it this way. I have a very high sex drive. On topical finasteride, I had zero sexual side effects. On oral, I could still perform but could not perform as often and it would take longer to achieve orgasm. Instead of going 2-3x per day, I can now only go once. So maybe it doesn’t have sexual side effects for men with normal sex drives, but it did knock down my high sex drive.
Do you have a source that DUT has about 4% sexual side effects because everywhere I'm reading online says they are practically exactly the same as finasteride or actually less side effects.
Can you talk about Copper peptide plz! . I fight air lost till 4 years now with minoxidil and dermaroller with no result.. I try Copper peptide 6 months ago and yeah!! I have some baby hair ! .. but why?? What is this ? Why minoxidil not work for me..
Bro try to figure out other sides of your life maybe you’re stressed or having other problems finasteride sides go away within a week or so until your body starts producing more DHT I hope you feel better soon and keep us updated.
I Guess is probably for the same reason you we don't lose temporal hair (from the sides of the head). As far as I knwon, itnis because those hairs are less sensitive do DHT. But lets the doctor correct me xD (excuse my english)
I can’t tolerate topical minoxidil? I have diffuse thinning all over so I have to put a load on my head? And I get chest tightening and breathing issues? I’m wondering if I take oral minoxidil, but extremely low dose? :( I need help desperately. Can I contact you dr or anyone ?
I don't see any change in his hair at all. What I do see is his hair was infused with more product in the form of a gel like product which appears to make yr hair is thinner or more fine with a wet appearance. Plus he had colored his hair with Just for men obviously I'm the after photos, I can almost definitively say that he has colored his hair with that product because I use that product as well and I know what it makes your hair appear like. What it does is it makes your hair in fact more coarse buy drying your hair out and it obviously leaves some form of a film on your hair which in fact thickens your hair strands. And your hair holds onto product better because it's thicker artificially thicker contemporary because over time it washes out very quickly, so when you put product on your hair like gel or mousse or hairspray and you blow dry it as well and then spray it and make your hair look a lot thicker. So he used also like yes trick lighting which is not a good example if anything so he's not a really good example of this there may have been a bit of more density in his hair but who knows but I've given his age and the hair that he has already to begin with I don't think he should be worrying about hair loss at all. Maybe he may want to take the medication to stop it from falling out and then he should be fine. But he definitely is not suffering from hair loss that's for sure I will trade heads of hair with him any day of the week. I suffer from hair loss and it goes in phases where sometimes I notice it looks like I'm losing are a lot where is very visible and then a year later when I'm comparing it looks like I have either the same amount of hair or it's thicker, and I take nothing for it. I take vitamins and supplements on a daily basis because of health reasons and I'm on medications that could be contributing to hair loss as well but the only thing that I do for my hair is I use a hair thickening shampoo which clearly is not working at this point so I've decided I'm going to buy the doctor here his products and give it a try. I've even considered and contemplating going and having a transplant but it's very expensive here in Canada and more expensive in the US. Although I do have the the means to pay for it, it's not something that I want to liquidate all of my savings to do. For the most part I'm first Nations background so my hair is a little longer than most men and I wear it pulled back and it's always in I coded rubber band of some sort to hold it together, it's quite common for men in my culture to have long hair that they wear in a braid or in some sort of ponytail. I've been wanting to cut my hair short for a long time because I look much better with short hair but the last time I did it is when I realized I was going bald. I had this huge bald spot in the back of my head that was clearly visible where a lot of hair falling out which I hadn't even really noticed I knew it was getting thinner and it was and my hair has become very fine I used to have very thick hair. But I was tired of having long hair and just wearing it in a ponytail I wanted short hair where I had one of those duck haircuts so to say I think that's what you call it. It looks very good at on me and I had it that way for years, but I just decided to grow it out. Additionally it is more culturally appropriate for men to have long hair in my situation cuz I'm first Nations. More recently I've wanted to cut my hair short but I will not cut it short because my hair is falling out and I look like I'm balding when a hair is short and I have to spend like an hour in the bathroom trying to style my hair in the back end up so that it doesn't look like I'm losing my hair.. and that requires me to use lots of product and spend lots of time trying to mask and hide the fact that my hair is falling out because I hate it. It makes me very self-conscious and when my hair is long and in a ponytail. You cannot see it as much when I have my hair in a ponytail. But it's a lot of work having long hair and it's a pain and when I wake up in the morning time I look like a crazy person where my hair is all over the place. Needless to say I can collectively interfere with a second or third date. Lol. So I contemplated going to turkey to have the procedure done where it's cheaper, probably it would be around 1/10 of the cost I would assume because I know that it would not all be able to get done in one sitting..I would have to go back again I'm sure in a couple of years. Maybe not because I'm really just focused on my crown area that's what bothers me the rest of it does not. And thickening up the front a little bit and I'm okay with my hairline cuz I'm in my 50s, so I don't expect to look like I'm in my twenties again either. And at this stage in my life it's not really that concerning because I'm not in the dating scene and I'm quite confident with myself I just don't like the back of it it really bothers me so I'm thinking about doing it. Within the next coming few months if anything. Freshening myself up a little bit doing some skin treatments, I'm having some work done on my teeth, enhancing my face a little bit because it's looking a little tired. As well as I've gained some weight since covid having a very hard time keeping it off and my face is full and I don't like my chin underneath my neck so there's a few things that I need to think about and I got to think about the cost and the effectiveness of it and where is the best place for me to go cuz I would ideally like to have it all done in one day..maybe I should consider talking to the doctor here and see what kind of pricing we're looking at. For now I'm going to order his shampoo and perhaps some of the skin care products. Wrinkles are not a huge concern of mine because I really don't have any. But my upper eyelids need some assistance. Droopy or anything cuz they're not when I was a young boy I had a couple of accidents and split my eye lids open requiring stitches on both sides of my eyes because I had an accident one time and then another one later. I had vision issues and constantly banged into things and had accidents because of that. I've worn glasses since I was a child and still do today. Often wearing contacts.. but as a result I have scars on my eyelids which makes it look like almost now that I'm older like it's getting droopy but it's because of the scars from the stitches that I have across my eyelids I hate it and it's always bothering me.
Doc I'm 33 - decent age for a ht? Temples receded and crown thinned (but I don't care so much about the crown but I'd like a somwhat lower hairline back)
This much work on a daily basis and a lot of risks along the way just to see that little results for me its not even worth it, better go get a transplant save time and money, I mean just calculate how much money over the years youre gonna waste just on the products used along the way and to think that you will have to keep doing this for the rest of your life to keep these results, exhausting.
Love your videos my father is bald since I remember him I’m 18 and now I’m trying to make my father regrow is hair by using a laser comb and rosemary oil plus scalp massage and a natural anti hair loss shampoo with caffeine and saw palmetto. Do you think it will work for him ? Plus he eats pumpkin seeds every day that help to block DHT
Sinceramente mais vale uma consulta num dermatologista. Acho que deverão dar uma melhor ideia do tratamento a fazer. O capacete da iRestore em termos de tratamento laser parace muito bom, apesar de ser um investimento grande... Tudo de bom!
The realistic sad truth is that you can't regrow hair that you lost. Only thing you can do is hair transplant. I been on finasteride for 9 months . It didn't even stopped my hairloss. It works for most.but unfortunately not for me. I am going to do a hair transplant. Next year. The hair treatment shits doesn't even work . Life sucks at any cost without hair 😢
@@AZ-gs6hjNot necessarily to please but more about identity. Imagine for years you can feel thick hair on your scalp, look in the mirror, and can run your fingers through it. Then all of a sudden, it keeps falling out and you just don’t recognize yourself. It’s a nasty feeling.
I had to use the ketoconazole shampoo in the past because of dandruff but after I stopped eating gluten, my dandruff went away on its own, so I don't need it anymore and my hair grows back with minox and finasteride without it. I also love finasteride because it makes your semen watery and then you are less likely to be trapped with a child.

minoxidil came on the scene 40 years ago, I had it before I had a horrible transplant. minoxidil did nothing. if that's all that's available 40 years later, what sad situation
40 years and big pharma couldn’t come out on anything to treat permanently…. Refuse to reach to the core problem. It’s a money grab on treating symptoms. Like this doc. He also wants to sell his product. 1-2% is a buzzword, in real life the potent drugs will allways have sideeffects, you’ll notice it in time.
It’s mostly about your genetics.
An unhealthy diet also comes with hair loss, low sexual drive as a bonus 😅
What I experienced, mostly supplements and things you apply on the surface only slower the hair loss process. Eventually balding is gonna happen till some point.
What I experienced is surprising. I used to live in istanbul. Then I moved to Las Vegas and my hair loss started, after that I moved another dry city in south west Turkey. It’s been 5 years and my hair density went worse but not balding. It just becomes thinner each year.
This year I spent about a month in istanbul. It was so weird, in the last week, I went to hair dresser and I couldn’t believe my top back side looked thicker. Holly crap what did I do?
I didn’t even use my hair care shampoo in that period.
What was different?
Stress?
Water quality? Yes! Tap water in istanbul is soft cause it’s collected rain.
However in Las Vegas, Mediterranean cities, the water was always heavy, high in calcium oxide, lime and other minerals damaging hair.
I’m looking for a filter that can be used in the shower. Idk maybe that helps.
Do these treatments have to be kept up for life?
Yup. Been on Finasteride and Nizoral shampoo for 22 years.
@@paradisekohchangstyle2150I'm a woman with some hair loss/ thinning at the hairline. I have used nizoral shampoo for dandruff for the last couple years and had no idea that it could support hair growth until watching this video 😅 ... in fact, I had this video playing WHILE I happened to be in the shower washing my hair with it 😅
I seen very little shedding on my scalp however I never went through an itchy face
Let me put it this way. I have a very high sex drive. On topical finasteride, I had zero sexual side effects. On oral, I could still perform but could not perform as often and it would take longer to achieve orgasm. Instead of going 2-3x per day, I can now only go once. So maybe it doesn’t have sexual side effects for men with normal sex drives, but it did knock down my high sex drive.
Do you have a source that DUT has about 4% sexual side effects because everywhere I'm reading online says they are practically exactly the same as finasteride or actually less side effects.
I agree I just started like a month ago I've seen tremendous growth I only use it once a day
around temple area? Whats your hairline like??
I dont understand, if he use oral minoxidil why he dont micronailing in that day??
I agree I use a Stamper
Why the reupload?
I've never tried Minoxidil. Always thought it was sketchy and more or less effective.
Start using and then decide. It's the best thing that I ever tried
Can you talk about Copper peptide plz! . I fight air lost till 4 years now with minoxidil and dermaroller with no result.. I try Copper peptide 6 months ago and yeah!! I have some baby hair ! .. but why?? What is this ? Why minoxidil not work for me..
I have had a lot of problems with Finasteride 1 mg side effects. I have until today, after stopping using it 😢😢😢
Sorry to hear that 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Try dropping to 0.5
seems like you have other problems that finasteride has nothing to do with
Bro try to figure out other sides of your life maybe you’re stressed or having other problems finasteride sides go away within a week or so until your body starts producing more DHT I hope you feel better soon and keep us updated.
Try topical finasteride
Dr. Linkov-I'm an old man; why don't we experience hair loss on our chests over time?
I Guess is probably for the same reason you we don't lose temporal hair (from the sides of the head). As far as I knwon, itnis because those hairs are less sensitive do DHT. But lets the doctor correct me xD (excuse my english)
Ironically the hormone that makes the hair on your head fall out is the same that makes your chest hair and beard grow.
I can’t tolerate topical minoxidil? I have diffuse thinning all over so I have to put a load on my head? And I get chest tightening and breathing issues?
I’m wondering if I take oral minoxidil, but extremely low dose? :( I need help desperately. Can I contact you dr or anyone ?
Microneedling is easy to do at home.......what a racket
By changing lighting....
How much did it cost for that patient to get a subtle hairline work done by you?
he's in nyc so north of 10k usd

I don't see any change in his hair at all. What I do see is his hair was infused with more product in the form of a gel like product which appears to make yr hair is thinner or more fine with a wet appearance. Plus he had colored his hair with Just for men obviously I'm the after photos, I can almost definitively say that he has colored his hair with that product because I use that product as well and I know what it makes your hair appear like. What it does is it makes your hair in fact more coarse buy drying your hair out and it obviously leaves some form of a film on your hair which in fact thickens your hair strands. And your hair holds onto product better because it's thicker artificially thicker contemporary because over time it washes out very quickly, so when you put product on your hair like gel or mousse or hairspray and you blow dry it as well and then spray it and make your hair look a lot thicker. So he used also like yes trick lighting which is not a good example if anything so he's not a really good example of this there may have been a bit of more density in his hair but who knows but I've given his age and the hair that he has already to begin with I don't think he should be worrying about hair loss at all. Maybe he may want to take the medication to stop it from falling out and then he should be fine. But he definitely is not suffering from hair loss that's for sure I will trade heads of hair with him any day of the week. I suffer from hair loss and it goes in phases where sometimes I notice it looks like I'm losing are a lot where is very visible and then a year later when I'm comparing it looks like I have either the same amount of hair or it's thicker, and I take nothing for it. I take vitamins and supplements on a daily basis because of health reasons and I'm on medications that could be contributing to hair loss as well but the only thing that I do for my hair is I use a hair thickening shampoo which clearly is not working at this point so I've decided I'm going to buy the doctor here his products and give it a try. I've even considered and contemplating going and having a transplant but it's very expensive here in Canada and more expensive in the US. Although I do have the the means to pay for it, it's not something that I want to liquidate all of my savings to do. For the most part I'm first Nations background so my hair is a little longer than most men and I wear it pulled back and it's always in I coded rubber band of some sort to hold it together, it's quite common for men in my culture to have long hair that they wear in a braid or in some sort of ponytail. I've been wanting to cut my hair short for a long time because I look much better with short hair but the last time I did it is when I realized I was going bald. I had this huge bald spot in the back of my head that was clearly visible where a lot of hair falling out which I hadn't even really noticed I knew it was getting thinner and it was and my hair has become very fine I used to have very thick hair. But I was tired of having long hair and just wearing it in a ponytail I wanted short hair where I had one of those duck haircuts so to say I think that's what you call it. It looks very good at on me and I had it that way for years, but I just decided to grow it out. Additionally it is more culturally appropriate for men to have long hair in my situation cuz I'm first Nations. More recently I've wanted to cut my hair short but I will not cut it short because my hair is falling out and I look like I'm balding when a hair is short and I have to spend like an hour in the bathroom trying to style my hair in the back end up so that it doesn't look like I'm losing my hair.. and that requires me to use lots of product and spend lots of time trying to mask and hide the fact that my hair is falling out because I hate it. It makes me very self-conscious and when my hair is long and in a ponytail. You cannot see it as much when I have my hair in a ponytail. But it's a lot of work having long hair and it's a pain and when I wake up in the morning time I look like a crazy person where my hair is all over the place. Needless to say I can collectively interfere with a second or third date. Lol. So I contemplated going to turkey to have the procedure done where it's cheaper, probably it would be around 1/10 of the cost I would assume because I know that it would not all be able to get done in one sitting..I would have to go back again I'm sure in a couple of years. Maybe not because I'm really just focused on my crown area that's what bothers me the rest of it does not. And thickening up the front a little bit and I'm okay with my hairline cuz I'm in my 50s, so I don't expect to look like I'm in my twenties again either. And at this stage in my life it's not really that concerning because I'm not in the dating scene and I'm quite confident with myself I just don't like the back of it it really bothers me so I'm thinking about doing it. Within the next coming few months if anything. Freshening myself up a little bit doing some skin treatments, I'm having some work done on my teeth, enhancing my face a little bit because it's looking a little tired. As well as I've gained some weight since covid having a very hard time keeping it off and my face is full and I don't like my chin underneath my neck so there's a few things that I need to think about and I got to think about the cost and the effectiveness of it and where is the best place for me to go cuz I would ideally like to have it all done in one day..maybe I should consider talking to the doctor here and see what kind of pricing we're looking at. For now I'm going to order his shampoo and perhaps some of the skin care products. Wrinkles are not a huge concern of mine because I really don't have any. But my upper eyelids need some assistance. Droopy or anything cuz they're not when I was a young boy I had a couple of accidents and split my eye lids open requiring stitches on both sides of my eyes because I had an accident one time and then another one later. I had vision issues and constantly banged into things and had accidents because of that. I've worn glasses since I was a child and still do today. Often wearing contacts.. but as a result I have scars on my eyelids which makes it look like almost now that I'm older like it's getting droopy but it's because of the scars from the stitches that I have across my eyelids I hate it and it's always bothering me.
React on regrow with alex
He looks better before, more masculine
I salute you, my balding brothers
Finesteride makes you impotent
Doc I'm 33 - decent age for a ht? Temples receded and crown thinned (but I don't care so much about the crown but I'd like a somwhat lower hairline back)
Do it
This much work on a daily basis and a lot of risks along the way just to see that little results for me its not even worth it, better go get a transplant save time and money, I mean just calculate how much money over the years youre gonna waste just on the products used along the way and to think that you will have to keep doing this for the rest of your life to keep these results, exhausting.
Dr you need to put melatonin in your hair foam!
Politicians should train for debates by watching Dr Gary's reaction videos 🤭
I don't take the oral form of monoxidil 5% on my scalp it works I only apply it once a day and I've seen a lot of growth
Love your videos my father is bald since I remember him I’m 18 and now I’m trying to make my father regrow is hair by using a laser comb and rosemary oil plus scalp massage and a natural anti hair loss shampoo with caffeine and saw palmetto. Do you think it will work for him ? Plus he eats pumpkin seeds every day that help to block DHT
Sinceramente mais vale uma consulta num dermatologista. Acho que deverão dar uma melhor ideia do tratamento a fazer.

The realistic sad truth is that you can't regrow hair that you lost. Only thing you can do is hair transplant. I been on finasteride for 9 months . It didn't even stopped my hairloss. It works for most.but unfortunately not for me. I am going to do a hair transplant. Next year. The hair treatment shits doesn't even work . Life sucks at any cost without hair 😢
Maybe you can't but lots of ppl do get regrowth with just meds
Just accept being bald at that point. Who you got to please?
@@AZ-gs6hj Maybe they think they look better with hair and they'd rather look better than worse. That's just a theory
@@AZ-gs6hj I am only 20 . Mahn I need 6 more years I need to complete my college
@@AZ-gs6hjNot necessarily to please but more about identity. Imagine for years you can feel thick hair on your scalp, look in the mirror, and can run your fingers through it. Then all of a sudden, it keeps falling out and you just don’t recognize yourself. It’s a nasty feeling.
if coaches don't play had a face.
He's wasting money and time, imho.

Kid looks twelve with a beard. 😊
I had to use the ketoconazole shampoo in the past because of dandruff but after I stopped eating gluten, my dandruff went away on its own, so I don't need it anymore and my hair grows back with minox and finasteride without it. I also love finasteride because it makes your semen watery and then you are less likely to be trapped with a child.
You Trumpers will pay for what you’ve done to this country!
