==================================
Welcome to my KZbin channel Hairliciously. In this channel, I will be taking you on a journey of my FUE hair transplant progress. Towards the end of November 2016, I had a 1700 FUE hair transplant done in South Korea at Motion Clinic (en.motionclinic.kr) to lower my hairline and to fill in my receding temples. The FUE hair transplant procedure took me about 7-8 hours to complete and cost me approximately $5000 USD.
I will be doing daily updates on my hair transplant progress, so feel free to subscribe and ask any questions you have. Thanks for visiting!
Please like, comment and subscribe! :)
======================================
Products I am using to supplement my FUE hair transplant:
1. Dr Pen 1.5mm 1-2x a week. (temples and hairline)
2. HAIRLICIOUSLY Hair Growth Supplement 2x a day
3. Minoxidil (Rogaine) - Minoxidil slows hair loss progression and promotes hair regrowth. I've noticed that using Minoxidil helped me grow my transplanted hairs a lot more quicker.
4. 0.5% topical Pyrilutamide
5. HAIRLICIOUSLY Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)
6. 0.1% topical dutasteride daily

Ahh, I feel strongly that microneedling helps. The topical Minoxidil just gets into the scalp better, and you can feel it. Was just using my Hairliciously microneedling device last night. I'm not stopping it because it works.

[@matthewmosier8439]

It seems to. I only microneedle once a week, but it shows good results. You can call me crazy, but I also brew up a mug of green tea once or twice a day and after it cools down a little, I pour it over my scalp and dry the edges so it isn't messy. The caffine is good for hair and after just a week of doing it I could see thickening of the individual hairs. Just tgought I'd pass that along in case somebody else wants to try it. Doing it before bed makes it easy because there's plenty of time before having to leave the house for it to dry.

[@westfieldartworks8188]

@@matthewmosier8439 Interesting idea. I may read up on that....and see what the deal is. I drink green tea, and I know it's good for oral health, and I look a little better after a few days of drinking it. I have had some success with Oral Minoxidil. Oral Minoxidil pretty much thickens up all the hair on your body. My beard, eyebrow, and eyelash thicknesses are noticeable. I imagine it's thickening up the hair on my scalp as well. But I for sure feel like the Microneedling helps, you can kinda feel it. But thanks for the heads up on the green tea. I'm going to read up what I can on that.

They should have had the subjects serve as their own control group. Treating one half of the scalp and leaving the other one alone, that way they could assess if they just would have not lost the same amount of hairs w/o intervention.

Yeah that's definitely the right direction to go. Even doing it 1.5 - 2 weeks is better than more frequent and not letting your scalp heal, leading to more scarring.

[@funkydinosaur]

Another brill video; thanks Hairliciously! Question for you; lots of people on Tressless are saying that once a week at 1.5mm is too much and could risk scarring - how come you still recommend once weekly over something less aggressive e.g. twice monthly? (I was doing 1.5mm once weekly but now planning to shift to 1.5mm every other week and 0.5mm on the 'gap weeks' - kinda aiming for reduced chance of scarring but increased topical absorption on the off-weeks. Any chance I could get your input and thoughts on that?)

[@f.austin]

interesting and thanks for sharing. have not seen or read study so from your description and presentation of the study the interesting takeaway would be that a "minimal" (once a month for four months) microneedling monotherapy may not be enough to realize any substantial/"noticeable" benefits. which in itself is good to know. i would analogize it to going to the gym once a month for four months as a monotherapy for health and then testing your fitness improvements.

[@Rusty4488]

Assuming you mean topical. Minoxidil. But sometimes that could depend on if the minoxidil is mixed with other things like propylene glycol.

[@ayadhussin6771]

Skin irritation is a sign of scalp rejuvenation because propelyne glycol has exfoliate effect that removes dead skin cells and also recreate keratosis which is crucial for hair growth. Same thing with redness and itchiness. So it is actually good that any of these conditions is working in process for regrowth. Therefore you need to hang out and continue until irritation/redness goes away. These conditions (sides) happened to me while I still continued and irritation, redness & itchiness eventually stopped on its own

I'm a little discouraged. Should I continue with the microneedling? I've been using a 1.5mm needle and doing it approximately 2-3 times per week. Hoping someone can give me some advice 😊

[@DEATHWISHVQ]

3 x a week is way too much. Watch the video.

[@breakingpieces7715]

ye keep going, shedding should be normal for minoxidil effect, but 3x week needling at 1.5 is too much, you shoud go max 2x at 0.5 plus 1x at 1.5 for week

[@WastedPo]

The videos I've seen recommend doing microneedling once a week at a MAXIMUM. Once every 2 weeks also seems to work. Also, the ideal penetration length seems to be between 0.5 and 1mm. If you use a 1mm dermaroller, that seems to be fine, since dermarollers tend to not go in for the full length of their needle setting.

[@rsmith9094]

You doing it farrr too frequently, better cut that back asap or going to likely do damage and long term problems. I prefer no more than once ever 2 weeks.

[@rsmith9094]

@@WastedPo the problem is all the hair's active components are within the dermis, particularly the lower (reticular) dermis .. so you gotta get the stimulation at least close to there ... the epidermis alone is over 1 mm thick on scalp. So if you're using microneedling for the stimulation then 1 mm won't cut it ... if you're using microneedling to create channels for absorption then thats more than enough.

Been really tempted to stop but thought perhaps i should keep it up for a full 8 month growth cycle so i dont have any doubts after as to wrther ive given it long enough.

Hope it's helpful, but MicoNeedling's a strong "No" for me.

Pen most definitely better than roller, Lucas below is on the money. As for length, pattern and duration there is no definitive studies to answer this ... all things considered I think 1.25 mm to 1.5 mm twice a month, with like 4 horizontal passes and 4 vertical passes over treated area to achieve moderate erythema (redness) ... for me its no more than 5 minutes.

Well heres my 2 cents i would give it about 3 months .you can use finasteride and minoxidil and anti androgens while doing the mico needling, but if you don't notice any extra results stop as soon as possible as it may be turning that diffuse thin area to get fibrosis .once fibrosis sets in regrowing hair in that diffuse area will turn to a dead zone

My experience is that topical stuff won't generally hurt to use. I'd recommend Keeps or some such stuff. Microneedling works, but you have to remove the shiny layer of scar tissue that forms on a balding scalp (you can tell men who have shaved their heads vs. bald precisely because of the shiny look of scar tissue on a bald scalp) Mine took maybe two or more months of once a week microneedling before that layer was gone and the hairs could be stimulated by the microneedling. If you don't use a chemical at least use Vitamin E oil occasionally to help your scalp heal from microneedling. I also use green tea applied to my scalp to get the caffine to the hair. Believe it or not it works quite well. The hairs themselves thicken up.

the study consisted of people who were told to stop their entire fin/minox stack for the duration of the study, if you've been taking meds and stop no amount of derma rolling is going to prevent you loosing those gains.

Studies must be repeatable with high sample size

[@thequantumbanana129]

I really think that all microneedling does is improve absorbtion of topicals, and that’s why you really only see improvement with conjunction of treatments and not alone. Me personally will not be using it because overtime it could make it harder to perform a hair transplant because the skin gets scar tissue.

Won't see a different for at least 12-16 months though with supplements.

[@Herbie11]

The natural stuff does NOT work at all. Nothing more than the placebo effect.

[@deusvlad2.083]

@@Herbie11 on the contrary natural foods do work, but the problem is the gut lining, if your gut has holes in it, and or have problem with your gut, anything that goes in your gut the foods minerals and vitamins get absorbed into your body, not all the foods vitamins and minerals get absorbed and if you have a gut problem you will get even less minerals and vitamins, the problem lies with getting enough of those B-vitamin and Biotin nutrients into the blood stream to be carried to your hair folicules. If you think it does not work , it's because your own body is not absorbing enough of biotin that is made, and it doesn't end up enough to grow hair at the end of it. Vitamins and minerals supplements are useful but only in their natural form, otherwise it will damage kidneys unnecessarily. Also it takes 12 months minimum and you have to stay away from sugar that causes problems and prevents the body from truly absorbing all your nutrients thats why it is better on a vegan/keto or animal protein mix with crusiferous vegetables and 10 cups of veggies per day, eggs are a good source of all vitamins and minerals as well as protein and carotene, whist also it helps to lower cholesterol if keeping to a good exercise healthy routine.

@deusvlad2.083 I eat healthier than 99% of people. My wife is a nutrionist and we grow our vegetables. I'm as bald as a bowling ball!

[@deusvlad2.083]

@@Herbie11 Well you have a problem with your gene pool then, something perhaps is causing DHT to increase on your head, need to reduce that DHT, all I can really say at this point is I taught you and anyone else who read the comment how to fish, the rest is really getting to know your own specific issues, and biology, There's something inside you that is preventing these nutrients from getting to your scalp/hair folicules, it isn't always about eating healthy, if your gut stomach can't absorb the nutrients as well as others, and age makes it worse. In fact food from the gut not all 100% of nutrients are absorbed into the body, the rest just goes into the intestine and you visit the toilet you know what comes after that. Try a biotin/collagen preferably organic supplement combo every day and perhaps try intermittent fasting, fasting can give benefits that may correct some biological issues. Biotin supplements take 12months to notice a difference in hair thickness and growth.

[@Daniel32396]

What kind of inhibitors?

[@tugweltp]

If you microneedle over thinning hair, won't it damage the hair you have? Similarly, after needing for some time, and assuming hairs begin growing, won't continued needling damage the new hairs too?

[@jt777T]

Would like to hear thoughts on this, I always thought the same. I think the quality of the dermaroller matters. Cheap ones can pull out existing hairs.

[@matthewmosier8439]

​​​​​​@@jt777TDon't recommend a derma roller. There's a maybe $100 pen on A mazon that I use that works great. I run it over areas where the number of hairs is thinner with no real problem. I like to alternate the number of needles in the tip I use from a lot to very few. Once a week at 1.5 works great for me. Hairs regrow (as soon as you get rid of the layer of scar tissue that's on the balding areas. That's argued by some as one of the reasons for the balding to begin with and for me it took maybe 2 or three months to get that layer removed) Once the scar tissue is removed, the hair can grow back as you microneedle That said, massaging your scalp is also extremely helpful, so make sure to do that regularly.

[@fangornthewise]

The logic behind it is that in a small enough wound, damage will be minimal, but at the same time will be compensated by triggering a healing response that will also stimulate(“overheal”) the hair that used to be there before being damaged by alopecia. Not the same mechanism but a roughly similar logic to exercise, when you lift weights you damage your muscles, but not too much, so they grow back stronger.

[@Goodhello369]

Of course it will damage lol. The say dont over brush and yet people think this isn’t damaging. Furthermore the pens: people use in circular motions. Its just tearing/shredding the hairs in the process.

[@matthewmosier8439]

@@Goodhello369 It is a net gain of hair. I've done it for a year and a half. The people trying to discourage microneedling are being kind of evil, in my opinon. Hair loss is one of the bigger issues that some guys face and the medical field trying to stop everyday solutions so they can sell expensive treatments is terrible.

Who paid for the study, that’s the question. Too cheap big companies need their money of course hair loss would be the result.

[@kelseymj1975]

I used minoxidil from ages 15-18, stopped it, then started again age 30-42, stopped it, and saw continued hair loss over the next 5 years, while I was figuring out my next treatment. My point is depending on how long the subjects were on other treatments it can take a long time much longer than 4 months (in my case years) to discontinue those treatments and get them out of your system before trying something else, without taking into consideration the expected hair loss from stopping said treatments. This study sound very poorly conducted and quite frankly irresponsible to have released it.

I like your products hairliously but I have recently bought some of your products but you never shipped it. you never sent me my tracking number and you end up not responding to my emails.

Use laser cap after micro needling and it makes a big diff

[@Herbie11]

Laser caps are a complete scam. They are NOT lasers at all. They are just red light bulbs. If you have hair on your head, the red light doesn't even reach your scalp. Don't fall for the placebo effect.

[@SlavaUkrainiMax]

I discussed with several hair transplant surgeons I went to see and they all stated constant micro needling causes scar tissue to build up eventually affecting the growth of the hair follicle . That’s why I stay away from microneedling. Figure the trauma repeatedly has a cumulative effect on the follicle site

[@breakingpieces7715]

nah that's only if you do it too much, in fact hair follicle resides at 4mm depth, no needle can reach that depth

[@frankch1028]

Another possibility (though I really hope this isn't the case) is the surgeons may have conflict of interest & if microneedling works then they'll have less jobs

We don't know what the long term effects of constantly puncturing the skin does i.e. scarring or even skin cancer. Yes microneedling helps improve minoxidil efficacy but using Tretinoin as a minoxidil adjunct is just as effective i would say and probably far safer longer term
