I watched this video coz I recently got a hair transplant. I get your point that there are no long term studies done which suggests that transplanted hairs last forever. But one of my uncle in his mid 40s, when his head was completely bald, had a hair transplant done using the FUT procedure 13 years ago. And 13 years later, his transplanted hair still lives. So that for me is an evidence that it lasts forever. However, the doctors told me after the ago of 40, the hair-fall naturally stops, so that might be a reason why his transplanted hairs survived for 13 years.

@@alexanderlouis4271 not sure about my uncle. But i have used minoxidil for 14 months and it did showed good results. But when I stopped using it, my hairs started falling again.

I’ll also start taking finasteride and if it goes well for me, I’ll keep using it for at least a couple of years.

@@ahmedfaraz5353 I also opted to try minoxidil first due to worry about the potential side effects of finasteride. In hindsight, I really wish I'd never used minoxidil at all and just got on finasteride immediately. That cost me a year's worth of hair loss that I'll never be able to undo. So when I finally did start on finasteride, my scalp had already progressed to a point that I'm unhappy with and finasteride will never be able to fix on its own. It's crucial to start on finasteride at a point where you're still comfortable with your overall hairline, as finasteride mainly just sorta locks that in. Minoxidil foam made me shed more than it regrew, so the net effect was overall worse than if I'd never used it. It turned a small area of exposed scalp into a wide area of visible thinning, with a few thick hairs scattered around. Those few seemingly stronger hairs that benefited were not worth the loss of the many small supporting hairs that filled in the overall area to cover the scalp.

Okay, here is something that is not mentioned that often. If you are not that old at the time of the transplant, you may end up with more hairs than expected. Take my case. 3,000 hairs transplanted, led to about 5,000 new hairs. It looked great. However, those extra 2,000 hairs were old hairs that had come back to life due to an increase in blood supply in the general area, and other reasons related to the hair transplants shifting things into a repair mode. Sadly, they don't last forever. And so eventually those extra 2,000 or so hairs, went right back to being in dormant state.

xlnt report. here's some personal exp: since the mid 90s (age 40) i've had 3 procedures for light to moderate loss in front and crown. all by top surgeons: 2 by bosley and one by another xlnt provider. since then and up to this date everything you state has been pretty right on. donor sight was deep FUT (safe donor zone) at border of skull and neck). hair loss in back crown was about 25%, and maybe 20% in front/middle front. i would say that today i have almost as much hair in the transplanted areas as i did after all 3 procedures, which were from about '96 to 2005 or so. so both my transplant sites had only 25-20% loss, so they weren't bald. further, i am not typical insofar as being a health nut, little drinking, organic, a runner, hanging a few times a week a la 'American Gigolo', and nuuuumerous supplements, esp for hair such as DHT inhibitors like saw palmetto, pumpkin seeds, and growth factors such as keratin, biotin, msm, silica, gingko, etc. NO pharmaceuticals, only over the counter 'health' supplements, meaning most of my supplements are not ONLY for hair, but other health outcomes such as stronger joints, etc. i've personally seen the effect the following have had on my hair: 1. lowering drinking to 2 hard drinks/week at most, 2. each of my hair oriented supplements, 3, exercise, aerobics/calisthenics/inversion (for blood flow). conclusion: without the lifestyle considerations of supplements/exercise/nutrition (organic/lowered drinking/no smoking/good nutrition) i no doubt would have seen the over time hair loss of the implants at about 20% of what they were after implant. each of my lifestyle changes brought results that i could literally see within a month or so to ongoing. it was a synergistic process where each lifestyle change added up to reversing any hair loss of the original procedures, as well as any which might have continued despite the procedures. the result was that my hair is virtually as thick and covers the same area as it did after all 3 procedures. i'm sure if i let my lifestyle changes slip, there would be increased hair loss...however since they affect my entire health, they are not changes i will forego. i have noticed at times in the past where stopping some of the supplements targeting hair growth, e.g. keratin, silica, etc, did have an effect. i absolutely do not want nor have i ever been on lifetime hair drugs such as finesteride/minoxidil etc...though i do saw palmetto and pumpkin seeds, again for overall health since they affect prostate, keeping DHT down. hope this helps. my background was as a reporter/editor, and clearly a health nut.

It is interesting to think about. Regrowth almost always seems to be “last out, first in.” There are case reports of people who lose their hair to alopecia areata, undergo a therapy 20 years later, regrow it all back and discover they now have advanced male pattern baldness. This seems to suggest that the effects of AGA continue even when the hair follicles are struck in the kenogen stage and/or perhaps not even cycling. It’s an area of research that I think is underrepresented!

Another interesting event was me using hair dye. I tested the stuff on my arm to verify that I had no allergic reaction. There was no reaction at all. However, my scalp had a different opinion. A rash appeared in some areas, and it took close to a year for the skin to return back to normal skin color. The areas affected, were bald areas. Six months later, hair began to grow in those specific areas, and lasted about 3 years. So it appears that due to the damage done, the areas had shifted into repair mode, and the hair follicles located in those areas also got caught up in the process.

Hair transplant Apr 2019 = about 2 months before, I started to take a cocktail of vitamins and minerals to help achieve greater survival of the hair transplant. The hair surgeon suggested I take Finasteride and Minoxidil as well as the hair transplant, I said I was getting a hair transplant so I would not have to take medication, but I agreed to applying Min5% as directed after the hair transplant along with my cocktail of vitamins and minerals. I was to go back in May 2020, for 2nd transplant, but did not because of Covid. Dec 2021, I stopped taking my cocktail (also my thyroxine tablets) and Minoxidil... well, with in a month I noticed my hair quality and colour subsiding. A couple of months my hair was thinning again and coming out in my brush like it used to when I was first going bald with the use of Roaccutane and genetic disposition. I feel, the hair surgeon new that a hair transplant is not the be all and end all - he did not discuss this directly but suggested I take other FDA approved medication as well as the hair transplant. Since Mar 2022, I have started a course of direction to try and achieve better hair quality and regrow some of the transplanted hair and the original miniaturized hair back again. For me, a hair transplant was part of the puzzle, I now attack the miniaturization of hair follicles in more than one way. Thanks, great video.

I have done transplant a few days ago....and i always had the same concern till now that how can transplanted hairs can be ever lasting when we dont have any practical examples present around us that had transplant 15 to 30 years ago? Surely we olnly look for the results that are maximum 3 4 or max 6 years old.... i havent seen any guy with the transplant 15 or 20 years ago....and this is my biggest concern till the day and always in my opinion i was clear about the fact that may be transplanted hair can,t be there forever... May be after 7 to 8 years they will lose.... Well studied and researched topic...❤

I'm thinking if my hair transplants last at least 3 to 5 years then hopefully it would just be a slow progression back to thinning hair. So maybe it would at least slow and delay going completely bald

Big help in deciding to NOT get a transplant. I'd wait for cloning, where you at least keep what you had. That also has variants pending; true cloning, plus injections of special cells near existing hair.

Those original plug grafts are a bit unsightly, but if what is presented in this video bores out to be true and is confirmed by more research groups, I think that you're right. I personally feel that most transplants are maintained long enough to warrant the procedure itself. But it would be nice to find techniques to better ensure survivability in the long-term.

I have diffuse thinning on my crown area. I did the prp and extra cellular matrix in Manhattan. The first round seemed to work. I was given finasteride to take but didn’t take it bc I was concerned about side effects. Now my hair is worse about 3-4 years later. After seeing 4 videos on this channel, I can see if I can’t get Botox and finasteride or saw palmetto. My friend has told me about a scalp massaging which I have to find. I also started micro needling but don’t know all the ins and outs of it. I have a derminator 2 from Europe I order. I have 9 and 12 needle cartridges.

Hi I'm french and I enjoyed your video, but i had a question, you say that recipient sites do inluence the fate of the hair, the only factors that could lead to that are DHT level and some other things like low oxygen levels etc.. but mostly the DHT Level right ? So my question would about how DHT works exactly, when it is created, does it remain in our sclap or is it just something that will last some some but will likely disappear within a few days but since it's created every days so every days there is like a DHT supply from our system leading to baldness? cause my final question would be does medicines/drugs like oral finasteride or dutasteride only impact the produced dht or also the ones remaining in our scalp, cuz instead of talking about hair transplant, an healthy solution would just be to make the scalp just as low antigen levels as the mice's back so the actual front hair would just stop miniaturizing?

Hey rob, nice video very informative and well construct Do you plan to make a video about the long-term efficacy of massage ? and maybe do you think it could make the transplanted hairs stay longer or even permanently ?
@PerfectHairHealth2 жыл бұрын
Thanks! I wish we had more long-term data on massaging, but unfortunately, the only information we have are anecdotes. In that regard, there’s also a selection bias for those doing massages long-term: those seeing results early on tend to stick with the efforts longer than those who aren’t seeing results. I think that any intervention that’s working will likely help improve the long-term survivability of hair transplants. So, if you’re responding well to the massages, I would put those efforts into that category.

@@PerfectHairHealth How are the information anecdotes when you've conducted a study about massaging without drugs and have shown pictures of people's scalps growing lost hair despite of age and having AGA, plus your website gives alot more representation about scalp massage as a main natural treatment and it has tons of pictures all of which show growth in people who've only done scalp massage regimen regularly

@@mastawitcha231 You're totally right - we have a lot of people reporting long-term success from massaging (with photos, and even over 2+ year periods without the use of other treatments). So we know that for a portion of people, these techniques appear to work (according to photographic assessments and self perceptions). The part we're missing is objective endpoint data: for example, hair count / diameter changes. Another thing we're missing is the percent of success for those massaging 1.5+ years - as the dataset from our study wasn't very robust after the 18-month mark. Perhaps my last message read as if it discounted these things too much, which wasn't my goal. I just want to avoid overstating anything :)

Thanks! No products - just hopped out of the shower and pushed it to the side for the video. I do have diffuse thinning though. I've been lucky enough to retain the hairline, and I've been a great responder to stimulation-based interventions like microneedling / massaging. I've mentioned this in almost dozen other comments in other videos, but I'll likely start using some sort of DHT reducer in 2022. Just waiting on timing to decide if we're going to have another kid.

Curiously, if transplanted hairs acquire some of the characteristics of recipient site hair, might transplanting balding follicles from the top of the head to the back of the head cause those balding follicles to regrow? If so, this might be practical in the case of those large punch grafts before FUE was developed. Because before the punch grafts are transplanted into the top of the head, holes have to made in the top of the head to receive the punch grafts. Why not take the tissue from the excavated holes and stick them in the holes left by removing the donor punch grafts in the back of the head? Doing so might rejuvenate those balding follicles, perhaps even creating a fresh supply of new donor grafts decades later when the earlier transplanted grafts have thinned. And in any case, at least the donor area might grow thicker over time, allowing the hair on the back and sides to be cut shorter.
