    Please advice - Crown and Vertex thinning
    Hello,
    I'm 34 now. My current crown and vertex part is shown in the pics attached. I have been using minoxidle 5% since 6 years to maintain my hair (crown and vertex). It was much thicker when I started using minoxidle however as aging my current hair is thinning. Also I have stopped using hair oil almost 20 years back and recently started using Bringraj oil since 2 months and didn't see much improvement.

    What are the options that I can get much thicker hair in the crown and vertex part? Please advice. Appreciate your response.

    Hi all,

    I have been trying this approach with Minoxidil and I can say with pretty nice results.
    I don't recommend any specific brand but the method itself described in my blog:

    i had similar situation of you.
    i tried dermarolling in the crown for 6 months with ZERO RESULTS.
    you should try it in combo with minoxidil for 6 months and see if you are lucky or not. IMHO

    Hi all

    Have passed many months since many members have tried roller and now i think there is a comclusion how is better to use a roller.

    It is better to use 1,5mm or 0,5? After the roller to use minox or something else or not?

    But who can read 250 pages for this subject?

    So all the new members dont have to search about it in those 250 what it is better.

    Can an admin to make a sticky what is better for it?Unless if roller dont worth to use it.

    I just don't see how damaging ones skin will have any affect on stimulating hair to grow, period.
    Reason...the problem is in our blood. Unless the DHT is removed those that are genetically programmed to lose their hair will continue to do so...wounding your scalp doesn't remove the DHT, it's still present.

    Roller helps to absorb the lotion. Only roller cant see something, i think. I have seen at the past rarely occasions they had regrow but ignore it , now i am desperate.

    So at those 250 pages they users say roller is useless?

    I believe we are all "desperate" and willing to try anything to reverse this nightmare.
    I'm coming up on 61 years of age, had a massive thick head of hair especially during the big-hair band days and decades after.
    For the past few years I have been under a ton of stress dealing with my 90 year old father and his care.
    I have noticed thinning but never really shed when brushing or showering.
    I can see my scalp through my hair in sunlight. I have been feeling more and more of the horseshoe pattern when shampooing and can really notice it when coming out if the shower.
    From the crown to the front Vellus hairs are taking over...nobody wants a cure more then I do but, I just don't think wounding ones flesh is a way to go about it.
    Potential cures are always 5-10 years away, been that way for decades.
    At 60 years old I'm lucky to have what I have...but I sure get envious when visiting my father in his nursing home and seeing an 80 year old resident with a thick full head of hair.
