Hi all,

I have been trying this approach with Minoxidil and I can say with pretty nice results.
I don't recommend any specific brand but the method itself described in my blog:

Please advice - Hair thinning at Crown and Vertex

Hello,
I'm 34 now. My current crown and vertex part is shown in the pics attached. I have been using minoxidle 5% since 6 years to maintain my hair (crown and vertex). It was much thicker when I started using minoxidle however as aging my current hair is thinning. Also I have stopped using hair oil almost 20 years back and recently started using Bringraj oil since 2 months and didn't see much improvement.

What are the options that I can get much thicker hair in the crown and vertex part? Please advice. Appreciate your response.

Heyas fellas. I hate to be "that guy", but there are a LOT of pages on this thread (246), might someone be able to sum up some dermarollers (size, # of needles), usage patterns, with what medications, etc. that appears to have worked? I want to try something that has appeared to work for some but just don't have the time to read through all the pages.

FYI, when the BS dermarolling study came out years ago, I hopped on the bandwagon, and was dermarolling HARD. All I ever got out of it was a bloody scalp, scalp skin that flaked off, and hair coming out with said flakes. So I want to do something less harsh. Will report results here.

Thanks!

Hi. What were your results?

[JohnMPB]

Hey guys!

Sorry that I haven't posted anything for a while! Been busy at work!

Also I had some major shedding around week 15, I'd like to contribute that to Saw Palmetto, since I hit the 3 month mark with it, just when I started shedding.
After the shed, the hair seems to be more thicker and denser!

Here's photo of week 20 - the longest hair I've had in years!

Hi, any update?

[elvispresley]

Can you really expect any results with minox at only once per week? Any positive effect you get would seem to have to be attributable to the dermarolling I would think....?

sorry guys no positive and relevant effects. Experiment failed after 6 months.

[JohnMPB]

ha ha ....

yes thats me at the start, think 3 or 6 months in

Hey prettfly,
I know you don't post much but could you please update us?

Also, do u experience any scalp itching/redness/flaking/inflammation and do u use anything for it besides nizoral?

Thanks

Derma+minox

Hi, i have bought kirksland minox like 20 days ago and i have just gotten my dermaroller.. I use minoxidil on my head and my breard 2 times a day.. I use somewhat 0.8ml on head and 0.4 ml on beard so it summes it up on 1.2 ml per use.
What i would pike yo know is: when to use the derma roller? How many times? And when after that? Like should it be used each day, every week, every month?!

Thank you im advance

[markusbdc]

minox once per week
dermaroll 1mm once per week
