    Yes, those are the most incredible derma roller results we've yet to see, if true.

    Knockin, can you please elaborate?
    What percentage Minox? Liquid or foam? How often a day? &You're rolling once a week? You've no other adjunct treatments besides CB?

    Thanks.

      does my hair look better? yea, but its nothing like the study. i wish i had more consistency with the photos, but its really hard. ive seen my hair at the length of the afters, i would say its better, but im still screwed. im gonna keep rolling for sure. i just cant shave my head back like the befores, becuase it looks ok now.

        Roll 1.5mm once a week since the study was posted, minox foam 2x a day, even roll days. just started CB @ 1% a few days ago. thats it. in my before pics, i had been not using minox very regularly. I was pretty strict in use for years, then got real lazy, so there was a minox shed happening.


        i really hate that my pics arent consistent, darker looking pics always pick up more of the tiny hairs that u cant see in brighter photos. and the hair being a little longer helps with the appearance. my moms said my hair looked thicker last week, so thats a plus!

        I was going to wait for more improvement to post, because i have good photos of my hair with it longer, like a standard #4 guard. but since i started cb, and people were bashing rolling, i figured i would give them something to chew on. the before pics are a stuble guard for facial hair on the lowest setting on the sides, 2nd lowest on top. the afters are 2nd lowest on sides, 3rd lowest on top. Not sure what mm the gaurds are.

          Bro honestly, and objectively speaking, the improvement looks massive.
          So far I've not seen results comparable to yours posted. That's saying something.

          What percentage Minox are you on? Liquid or foam? How often a day?

            here is one from a full year ago. longer hair, no shaved hairline, in front of same bathroom mirror with the same wattage bulbs. my comparison befores dont show my mini hairs, i look almost slick bald in them. thats not the case, and im not trying to scam anyone here. most people just want consistent photos, but thats way easier said than done. and yea, i should be knockin on nw5a

              Yeah of course your hair looks better! You have hair on the front of your head now, and you didn't before. Perhaps the lighting in the originals isn't doing justice to how many active follicles that still there, but it's still a great improvement.

                hey guys just chiming in to say i don't mind a couple comments and questions on amazing stuff like knockin's pictures, but let's try to keep it to a minimum and focus on just results. get the info you need, say congrats, and move on. mainly just trying to avoid off-topic discussion and arguments. thanks guys.

                  1. 39

                  2. Diffuse + crown tonsure (monk style, not shiny yet) NW3 maybe?

                  3. Minoxidil 2x/day, CB 1% 1x/day, Nizoral 1x/week on rolling day

                  4. ZGTS (Amazon) 1.5mm

                  5. Once a week/til it hurts too much, a little blood, decent redness

                  6. 8 weeks in.

                  7. Results - nothing obvious visually yet. Hair is a bit longer than some posters wear it, so might take longer to show up. Shedding seems reduced in the hand/tub but might be placebo. Also been on the CB mixture about six weeks.

                    2. NW5
                    3. 5% Minoxidil Twice a day
                    4. 1,5 mm 192 needles
                    5. Rolling once a week Redness and and some blood.
                    6. 8 weeks in

                    7. I have seen a little improvement (with some neogenesis) but not enough to justify damaging skin every week.

                    Here are the pics



                    And here is a few examples of neogenesis highlighted. (There are probably more but have highlited some obvious ones).



                    As I say, not enough progress to justify the risks, so I am ceasing my use.

                        I don't understand that comment either. I'm seeing similar results but I'm not stopping. If anything I'm more encouraged because I can actually SEE that something is happening. Nothing cosmetically significant yet but it took years for me to lose it so I expect that it will take time to bring it back.

                          Medion1, kudos for the nice comparision pics!

                          Conditions for neogenesis must be happening in your scalp, we just need to improve the efficiency for this to be a viable treatment.

                          Shit just relised I posted in the wrong forum, mods please delete this post!

                            After the rolling sessions my scalp looks like I have been sun-burnt. It also feels warm to the touch like sun-burn.

                            So in my personal opinion, I think it could have the same effects.

                            But I don't want to put others off experimentation. Many people tan and use sunbeds regularly.

                                Guys, this is a results ONLY thread. If you want to discuss things, I'd kindly suggest to post your remark in this forum: http://www.baldtruthtalk.com/showthr...13420&page=180 and then maybe just post a link here to your remark so people can respond to your question/remark there.
