    here are some higher quality ones... any input is more than welcome, I'll try and take any advice on board and take better ones tomorrow.

    notice my scar in image 1 (SAM_0021.JPG), its right in the middle just above the top of my extracted area.







    IronMan, would you be able to document the regeneration again?
    They are good pictures, especially the ones ending in 21 and 23.

    I will also try to document the regeneration independently of Iron Man.

    The photo of the back below your scar isn't the same quality as the two pics above your ears unfortunately. It's either too blurred or just not quite enough of the right light. If you could take the same photos again (especially photo 21) every day over the next week then I reckon that would be enough to see the donor regrowth.

    EDIT: I meant to say photo 22 is the best photo that I would like to see more of over the next few days.

      Yeah, apparently I have female pattern baldness. Haha

      So do you think those photos are good enough to document donor regrowth or should I do something differently?
      Some of those shots are perfect IMO. Dunno if one of the others guys will disagree.

      My hair has been that short since I was 18 (grade 0 or grade 1 depending on my mood).

      You gonna do anything to save your existing hairs? Are you on fin or minox?

          Great. Yeah I'll do that mate. I have another pic of the one below the scar in different light, i'll upload that now.

            I'm debating going on some sort of meds, i'm not on anything at the moment. Are there any meds that don't have horrible side effects?

              haha no, I just wanted to be comfortable and it's not that expensive if you book ahead.

              Plus I live in the north west, so in order to arrive at the right time in the morning (my next one starts at 7.30am), so makes sense to stay over the night before.

                I started meds 2 months ago. Not had any sides. Problem is, I think that most people dont have sides, but the few that do are on the forums! Plus worrying about sides will probably induce them.

                I decided to start meds for a few reasons. 1, if i have multiple HSTs its better to hang onto my existing hairs. 2, with all the treatments in the pipeline (histogen, aderans, and maybe some others) i dont want to regret not trying at least.

                PS. for the moment I use a very small dose of fin every 2 days, RU (experimental thing) and minoxidil (which you will be using now). I feel Ive halted further hairloss already.

                  here is the photo with the scar again

                  you can barely see the scar in the pic because of the light, but if you know where to look, you can see it.

                    what meds are you on? Minox? I'd be up for going on meds as long as they don't make me impotant.

                    Gaz are you on any meds?

                    Also Gaz is that latest photo any better?

                      Nice one, that is also a pretty good pic. I'm sure Iron Man will have a field day with these!

                      I will be concentrating on the photo 22, the one above your left ear area. So if your able to reproduce the same photos roughly without losing focus, then it should be easy enough for anyone and everyone to do the same!

                        Fin (0.5mg dose)
                        Ru solution (experimental solution. Works very very well but being experimental, i wouldnt reccomend it to anyone)
                        Minox (this is the only thing thats given me slight sides. Slightly faster heart beat when im trying to sleep, i recommend you apply minox well before bed time).

                          I'll do my best to get the pics exactly the same tomorrow and the rest of this week.

                          Interestingly, it was the left hand side that the first technician kind of messed up, so be interesting to see how many of the unsuccessful grafts come back and how many of the successful grafts come back.

                            Nah not on any meds. I take the stance that I've lost most of the hair already to a unique disease that I would have lost to DHT anyway. So there is little point in me taking meds.

                            You could argue that I should take meds to keep my crown in tact and the forelock area I have, but it's almost not worth it for me.

                            If I was suffering from just MPB I would consider it or maybe try it for a year.

                              I thought that was just me with Minox sides. I don't really count minox as a med, but when I took it from Gho for a few weeks after my procedures I noticed significant chest pain and it stopped almost immediately after stopping the minox. I don't think it was anything to be worried about though. I'll be taking it again because I feel that was what stopped my shedding the 2nd time.

                                Never had chest pains! Not sure if you should use it with pains. Were you spraying on a huge amount each day?
