Gho HSi patient had close up pictures

Yes i agree before you blow another load of dollars with traditional transplants and then get ****ed in the as when cell based solutions come and you have no useful donor would be insane.

Why do you have to use words like that? So UNDER class

Yes i agree before you blow another load of dollars with traditional transplants and then get ****ed in the as when cell based solutions come and you have no useful donor would be insane.

Also i think that maybe Gho can help you OR you could be in his study because you are a case where traditional stuff just didnt work out

If Gho's procedure is what he says it is it may well be a good option for you at this point in time VictimOfDHT. There will absolutely 100% be a cell based solution that changes this forever. The question is just when. It could be as little as 4 years off. Of course that might be a little on the optimistic side but some of the guys that are saying closer to 15 than 5 years seem pessimistic to me. I think 6 years sounds very possible for the likes of Replicel. I think Aderans will go to market with something anway. They're deep in phase 2 and just got a $100million investment so you've got to think they've got something.

Even if that something could only keep your hair then perhaps Gho could take care of the other half of the equation.

Cvazbar, Kiwi, Alliswell, thank you all for your support and the nice words. I really appreciate it.

I'm dying to find out what's causing this. For a couple of months I thought maybe it was seasonal shedding but now that the thinning is getting worse and the fact that it's been more than 7 months since the last shed started I know it isn't seasonal shedding. I don't know who to turn to. My last HT doctor told me there was nothing I could do and I honestly doubt seeing a doctor or dermatologist about this would do any good. I've been posting here and on another site for the past few months hoping for an answer but nothing so far.

I hope you guys are right about new treatments coming out -hopefully in the not so distant future- because I can't take this hell any more.

Gho sounds like a good option but the expense and the possibility that I might end up losing my transplants again is making me a bit too nervous and honestly after so many HTs I feel a bit burned out, but like I said, I'd never accept baldness and I'll keep fighting this curse until I die. I'm just hoping I don't lose any more hair for at least a few more months to see if we hear anything from this company or that but if I lose more hair -and it looks like I will- I'm buying my ticket to Holland with no hesitation.

Thanks again, guys.

some questions for the experts:

1)is there a patient (or more) who have done the HSI transplant more than one time? (re-using the same donor)
2) when did they do the first HSI transplant?
3) is possible to create a zone on the forum with the IMAGES (pre and after) of GHO tecnique, in this way also the beginners about the hairworld could easily understand, avoiding to search the net especially if the are not english mother tongue.


thx a lot

[ALLISWELL]

VictimOfDHT, Dont panic Gho will help you for sure, my wishes are also with you hope you get treated and get you full head of hair back.

I agree with CVASBAR.

My thoughts are with you bro, I feel for you at a really deep level, man I would really encourage you to try and figure out what is happening and then share it with the world so you might be able to help others.

CVASBAR is right... worst case scenario is that we have a #4 cut and look older. It's not worth dying over.

[CVAZBAR]

Thanks, Richard. I think I'll do an online consultation or send them an email but I don't know what I'd do if he says he won't be able to help.

What you're going to do is RELAX. Of course you can live your life without hair but it won't matter anywAys because there's many good things coming in the future. For now, you should try and find out more about your problem. There has to be a reason why. Talk to your personal doc as well, not just HT surgeons. It's hard to believe that none of those mother****ers know anything about your problem. Keep grinding and search for answers. The future looks bright. Don't panic brother.

[VictimOfDHT]

Thanks, Richard. I think I'll do an online consultation or send them an email but I don't know what I'd do if he says he won't be able to help.

i say make an appointment this whole thing just sounds sad

[VictimOfDHT]

Thanks, Kiwi and Richard. Apparently, this problem (transplanted hair falling out) exists although I was told it's rare. I myself didn't know about it until a year after my last HT when the doctor told me I had it -since I was experiencing considerable loss in density, yet again. Doing a search online I found at least a handful of similar cases of men whose transplanted hair started falling out sometime down the road. I even posted a question a few months back on dr. Rassman's site -you can find my question there- and he acknowledged such a problem did exist but even he couldn't tell me what causes the hair to fall out. I know for sure I do not have "diffused thinning", as the back and sides of my head are thick, and the loss is rapid and starts all of a sudden after a certain time and its NOT gradual.
He also said something about Telogen Effluvium but I don't know if that's what I have. This (TE) could've been the condition my last doctor mentioned but I can't remember.

Yeah, more than 4000 grafts and more than $20,000 are wasted but most importantly more than 13 years of my life are wasted too -because of this curse- and worse of all is the possibility that the rest of my life is going to be wasted now if there is nothing I can do to fix this. My battle with hair loss has completely ruined my life. I could never face life with my hair thinning and the fear of hair loss had had a complete grip on me way before it even started. How the hell am I gonna do if I lose it ???

I'm really scared that dr. Gho -if I decide to go with him- might refuse to take me as a patient. If that happens it would be better for me to just go dig my grave and lay in it and just wait to die. No way I can go on in life if I lose my hair.

BTW, how can I find dr. Gho's site ? I've seen it before but I can't find it now.

[RichardDawkins]

I agree, maybe its really connected to healing or something and maybe he can help. Its really sad to hear this because those are wasted Grafts

[Kiwi]

Thanks for the reply, Richard. No, my problem isn't due to a doctor's shitty work. My problem is a special curse from God that he chooses to "bless" some people with to make them even more miserable. It turns out there is a small minority of HT patients who end up losing their transplanted hairs for some reason and even HT doctors don't know why. They say they're rejected by the body. I don't think that's the case because my transplanted hair seems to last a random number of years (1-5) then starts falling out. I'm thinking if it's the body rejecting it then it should fall out right away. So yeah, thank god for this special curse that has cost me 5 ****ing transplants (more than 4000 grafts over the past decade at a cost of more than $20,000 and it's all in the hairline and temples. I'm not going to name my last doctor again (so far been thru 4 doctors) but he's well known around the world and like I said he did do a good job but the hair started falling out again. Now, I'm losing more hair AGAIN in the same area and it's pissing me off more than anything but I'm not gonna let get worse without trying again. So I'm thinking about another small transplant ( a few 100 grafts) but since I know I'll most likely lose those too after a year or god knows when, I was thinking maybe Gho is the way since we can use the same donor area for at least a couple of times -assuming that hair will regenerate again- but I don't know. I don't even know if any doctor would do any more HTs for me knowing that I have this shitty condition but I'm not going to lose my hair sitting down.

So, what's this test they do at Gho's ? I see it's 570 Euros.

No body knows how painful and depressing this is. I don't drink or do drugs but I can't take the pain any more and I'm thinking about doing drugs or at least pot now. This is too much to take.

Shit dude I'm sorry to hear about that. I think you should ask Gho for an online consultation - that couldn't reall hurt.

Do you know what the condition is called or have you met anybody else who has experienced this?

[RichardDawkins]

Why are you starting a new fight? We were all just cooled down already. pffffff

[clandestine]

Dawkins, no one really cares about your over sensationalized posts anymore. Sorry, but that's the truth. Brutal as it may be. Perhaps stop picking fights with randoms on the forum and you might gain a little more credibility. Contribute some constructive posts, etc.

Tinnitus, thanks for the share! Excited to see how your donor develops, perhaps see if you can get some macro photography of any kind. Borrowing a higher quality cam from a friend, or maybe some other way. Anyway, thanks for posting.
