Hi BM,

Just saw your question. I stopped the foam in February this year because I thought it wasn't helping. But I looked more closely at my pics a couple of months ago and realised that it was regrowing and thickening the area below the HT. I didn't realise at the time cos I was just looking at the transplanted area.

So I started using the liquid minox in July (only in the area below my HT) and it is starting to work again. I didn't have any irritation with the foam but found it a bit messy and it smelled and turned by hair silver! I haven't had any irritation with the liquid but it does cause my scalp to flake.

I haven't had any regrowth with the Finasteride but it has improved the quality of my hair, mainly by bringing back the pigment so it looks a bit darker.

Also, thanks to everyone else for the compliments.

Good to hear you are getting some benefits from the minox.
I may try the 5% liquid once a day as the extra strength 5% irritated my scalp and i had loads of flakey skin(snow storm).

Cheers bm.

I think it looks great El Nino!


Dr Rahal did a great job!

Congratulations! :)

looks amazing, another top drawer result by rahal:)

are you using any concealer?? this looks amazing

Great result on the crown, but it looks like you had a hairline constructed too! Do you really consider yourself a NW3?

Cheers guys.

Keepmyhair,
I have never used concealers.

mattj,
My hairline is naturally high but very thick and I haven't lost a single hair from it. I considered myself to be a NW 3 Vertex (crown).
