    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.

        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.

            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

              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.

                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.

                  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

                      The thing is in six years I might be completely bald. I've never lost hair at the speed I am now. It only took a couple of months to lose a whole bunch of my transplanted hair and go from almost a normal hairline to at least Norwood 2 or even early N3 and it doesn't look like it's stopping as I can see the right temple has lost even more hair over the past couple of months. I just can't imagine myself bald. I'd lose my mind. I couldn't bear thinning in my hairline and temples and that's why I had all those HTs as I wanted to be proactive in my fight against this curse. No way in hell I was going to wait to see bare skin (scalp) on top of my head. I really couldn't afford to spend 20 some thousand dollars but it wasn't really a choice. So now I don't know what I'd do if the loss doesn't stop. I'd probably become the biggest drug user there is. A couple of years ago I was prepared to accept the possibility that I had MS but I'd NEVER EVER in a million years accept baldness and I know there is no way in hell I'd be able to deal with it. It is just too scary for me to think about it for a second.

                      I'm willing to try anything at this moment. I'm still in shock from this but I'm gonna have to do something about it. Maybe contact several doctors -including Gho. I'd be willing to participate in any experimental stuff, cancer or no cancer as I see no point in living if life is nothing but suffering. I really hope Gho is the answer even if it's a temporary one.

                        Ahm you should actually do this as fast as you can and dont worry we dont want to see donor pictures etc, all we wanna hear is

                        " Damn finally my hair stays there where it should"

                        Also you are nowhere near to be a NW6 guy and take a look at what Gho created on this Den Saunders guy who is a very bad case of NW6 with a complety shiny forehead without any hairs left.

                        Alo if you start early, you have the chance to get to your hair loss long before you go completely bald.

                        I estimate that a normal NW6 guy would nee 6 HST sessions with each time 1700 or more Grafts. With each time 1700 Grafts this would sum up to 10.200 Grafts which is more then enough to get you a very good NW2 good density coverage without comb over.

                        Someone here said 9000 Grafts is he magic number for a full blown NW6, so i think you are good for it.

                        Btw sad to her your MS story

                          I know this probably offers zero relief, but at least you didnt lose a bunch of hair and then have the grafts out in the open looking all weird



                          I'm in between emailing Gho's clinic trying to figure out how many procedures they think I could have. They seem to use a lot of automated/prefabricated email phrases as I've gotten similar responses again and again.

                          I'm having trouble getting an answer about if they do transplants to the temple region. I think a hair transplant without taking the temples into consideration leads to crap results.

                          I have/will have severe hair loss so it may be hard for them to guess my maximum procedures. Hopefully they'll give some indication/info about maximum procedures.

                            I know 6 years is a long time so Gho may well be a good option now to tide you over. Something to consider anyway. The standard session size sounds like it could help shore up the hairline and frontal third in general. Give it some thought and look into it.

                              Thanks again, guys. I really needed someone to give me some kind of hope that I still have another option and I really hope Gho is that option. But the fact that I keep losing my transplanted hair is scaring me. I mean what if I get another HT then lose all or most of the hair again ? If the donor site does regenerate (hair) then at least I won't have to worry about depleting my donor hair -for a while- but I still would be depleting my savings. I barely make enough and it would kill me to lose more money for nothing. I only wish there were a way to know if any new transplanted hair would be lost or not. I just cant afford to lose even 50 hairs for nothing.

                              Needhairasap, that's discouraging if they didn't reply to your email . How are people supposed to contact them ? People aren't gonna call in from all over the world to ask questions.
                              Anyway, I don't see why they wouldn't do the temple and hairline area.

                              Richard, I don't have MS but two years ago some stupid so-called "specialist" told me I had it, however MRI scans came back negative. But I just wanted to say that I was prepared to accept having MS but no way in hell I would accept going bald. As terrible as MS is, I still think baldness would mess up my life more.

                                Of course nobody can say if those hairs will sustain ovr time, but dont get me wrong, i have a gut feeling that tells me that with HST it sholdnt be a problem to let your hairs survive for until you die.

                                So i mean you had FUE done, FUT is not an option for obvious reasons, all you can do now is doing HST at this point in time.

                                As you say, worst case scenario you lose those transplanted hairs but the donor recharges so you didnt lose nything at all ecept money of course.

                                When those hairs survive, you actually got a win win situation except the money :-)

                                Well the reason why i think that this will work is simple, i saw some really really sad burning victims with severe third grade degree burns on their face and head. And Gho managed to get hairs to grow there in extensive burned dead scar tissue.
