Finally got my transplant last Tuesday from Dr. Lincov. Hands down AMAZING results already showing and when I tell you EXACTLY what he says he does from start to finish is EXACTLY what he does and this is his exact same personality and how he speaks. I’m VERY satisfied. From Registered Nurse to doctor thank you again Dr. Lincov and your team. Blessings.

​@@drgarylinkov Not sure where to ask this, but as far as the scientific literature i've read over the last few years indicates, swelling isn't the villain it used to be deemed as for recovery. Seems that despite the relief cold or elevation (from RICE) might give from pain or pressure, more blood flow to the area seems to help the area heal better. Would this apply to a hair transplant, too? Seems another important factor in recovery is sleep, so resting slightly more horizontal after a procedure might be conducive to better sleep and more blood juice to the head to nurture and heal the grafts. It's also totally possible the swelling around the head would just induce headaches and pressure to the point they can't sleep at all. What's the good Doctor Linkov's take on this. Cheers for all the insight,

That's the main "physical health consequence" of baldness. UV damage, e.g., skin cancer is significantly more prevalent for people with no/much less hair. Androgenic alopecia also considerably worsens the quality/"thins your skin" (all layers except the galea). I've not found studies on this, but since hair follicles are also involved in healing damaged skin/wound healing, there might be other adverse effects not scientifically investigated/known.

Finasteride does not “lower testosterone”, it lowers DHT. The medication actually RAISES systemic testosterone (by about 10-15%) as less of it is being 5 alpha-reduced and converted to DHT.

Yes, but DHT is a much more potent androgen than testosterone. So, any effects of higher testosterone would be more than offset by the lower DHT levels. This refers most commonly to sexual side effects and motivation and energy levels.

​​​@@ordoabchao4202 DHT is very androgenic but it is ONLY effective in the areas it's produced (prostate, skin and hair follicles) as an adult man since the hormone is intracrine in the tissues it's produced rather than endocrine like testosterone. It doesn't matter how adrogenic it is when it can't be used beyond the tissues it's produced. Most other areas in your body deactivates DHT by 3a-HSD and turns it into a very weak androgen called 3α-diol. Saying it's some super charged testosterone is straight up BS. If you replaced all your testosterone with DHT it would be effectively the same as castrating yourself. The reason why you can get sexual side effects from finasteride is not because you lower DHT but because you raise testosterone by around 10% when you take it which means you will have a slightly higher conversion of testosterone to estrodiols and for men that are especially sensetive to estrodiols will experience problems with their libido.

My older brother started balding in his mid 20s while my hairline stayed strong, I used to poke gentle fun at him over it. I just kind of assumed that maybe I'd be one of the lucky few who get to keep their hair into old age, we have a few men in my family who have done.. then about a year ago at 31, my balding started making up for lost time. I went from a full head of very thick hair to the receding hair line and pretty intense thinning on the crown very quickly. Karma for my jokes at my brothers expense. Needless to say he's enjoying it very much.

This was such a well documented video and thanks for your commentary. I'm a month since my FUE in Turkey and it's a long road. The biggest struggle first month is the washing of hair with the foam and shampoo, washing hair everyday and not being able to apply a cream just made my scalp feel so dry. I eventually used aloe Vera gel after week 3. The itchiness just stopped like a week ago, the donor area. It wasn't a bad itch but there. I didn't leave a feedback for my clinic when though they wanted a video of me while there, I prefer to wait the whole post op than leave a review on the day of the operation. They were nice, professional and hopefully 6 months time I'll be able to document my journey too but nothing before. I'm not going to send hopefuls to a clinic just because they were nice on the day of the OP. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1228">20:28</a>, if Finisteride is to prevent hair loss, and I've had HT of good follicles to transplant area, what's the logic behind using it?

I sat down and had a thorough conversation with myself journaling. I asked my self am I scared to lose my hair because of vanity or insecurity? And that made me ponder even more, and it was a bit of both.. so if it was vanity (which is natural) can I not amplify other areas of my appearance or personality in a positive push with vanity and if it’s an insecurity…. What am I really shying away from and in fear of by losing my hair? Which gave me two avenues to go down and explore even more. While at the same time reading and seeing all this positive testimonials of people. I’ve always trained and kept a good shape, I can grow a full and well kept beard… let me work and improve on those aspects of my appearance and most importantly work on my self as a whole and try to close the gap of the lack of vanity / increased insecurity…. One thing that I never heard about once in my whole time searching for remedies or surgery etc…. Was the mental health aspect…. I think it is as important as any stage of the process. Once you get down to the root cause of the fear of hair loss it gets a lot less foggy area to navigate. Hope it works out for you in the long term but I would advice start slowly figuring out a way to reach you’re desired goal for when the medicine stops working it’s magic and you will eventually lose the hair.

@@Mr---mr4ll Hair loss was the straw that broke the camels back for me in realising that I wasn't cis. To be honest, any side effects caused by treatments is less worry to me than the alternative for me. I don't think it is necessarily bad advice for a lot of men out there, but the only good the "just shave it bro" advice got me was cracking my egg.

Dr Gary's I am quite shocked many plastic surgery procedures, hair graphs, and as you and the gentleman who made the video mentioned dental procedures that I can assure should either be done with general anesthesia as opposed to needles stuck in an already super sensitive mouth for a root canal. Xanax or Valium wouldn't help much as I already am prescribe the afore 1mg 3 x daily. Not because I like them, I've been on them for 15 years due to panic attacks and night terrors. I have terrible panic attacks so my Dr and I choose this and I still suffer horrible night terrors. It is unbelievable I get stuck in dreams where I'm being tortured by very evil people. I can't recall if I feel pain but I don't wake until someone hears me scream and shakes me. I'm not quite sure who the people in those dreams terrorizing me are but thinking now likely my last dentist with his evil needles and chair he never warns when he will push me up or down. Yeah I do need general anesthesia and then a needle prior to waking for that pain!

I went on Propecia/Finasteride many years ago and the side-effects were VERY intense for me. I flushed my 3 month supply I had and NEVER wanted to touch that horrific drug ever again. Thank god the side effects eventually went away after a few months. I then decided to accept my hairless & shaved my head ever since.

I really like all Gary’s hair loss videos but I thought he could’ve elaborated when the guy said “you have lower testosterone on Finasteride” . As far as my understanding, You don’t have lower “testosterone” in your body you have lower “dihydrotesterone” which is the the byproduct of the testosterone, and the 5 alpha reductase reaction. DHT plays a massive role in masculinization during puberty, however post puberty it does not play much a role in sexual function which is why side effects are relatively rare

I have a question about finasteride and minoxidil , At the clinic they told me that the Topical solution that they produce that contains finasteride and minoxidil + other ingredients would be enough treatment without the pills and would also be reduced side effects of the medicine. My question: Is the topical solution as effective as taking the pills? if not do you recommend taking the pills (finasteride and minoxidil) and topical solution at the same time? Also would it be better if I got a pill cutter and micro dose finasteride and minoxidil with the topical solution? what do you think Doc. Also thanks in advance.

It's sad that baldness is so common and causes mental issues and lost youthful looks. On the flip side, I am a 53 years old male. I have used Anabolic Androgenic Steroids AAS, since I was 20 years. I used AAS in ridiculous amounts of injectable amounts. 600mg a week. . I barely have any body hair and zero hairloss. My father is bald and has peach fuzz on his head. I am 6'4 and 290lbs of muscle, he is 5"6 145lbs and hairy like a gorilla. He thinks I am not his biological child. Lol. My Maternal Grandfather and his Great Grand father and his father had 100% of their hair at their death including a super low hairline and no body hair... Meanwhile, a few friends are very bald and never used AAS, ever. I guess I am lucky with good genes. I feel bad for bald men. It ruins them. I hope they find a cure for baldness. It totally destroyed my friend Marks life. He literally stares at my shaven that I shave to skin. Its strange that I hate hair on my body and head and shave it off 2 x a day.... . Mark has zero confidence and has tried every known baldness treatment to man, including transplants, that failed and left him with ugly scars and a few random hairs poking out of a lumpy scalp. He has used laser, red lights, massage, Minoxidil and Propecia for many years. Meanwhile I still use AAS steroids weekly and do not plan on stopping... I pray for a cure for this terrible condition that ruins men and robs them of their youth and good looks. I'm praying for a cure soon .. 🙏🙏🙏

I’m so jealous of these people who’ve already found good clinics to go to. I can’t figure out where to even start. I probably can’t afford a domestic procedure which probably makes the process more difficult but even locally It’s impossible to know if the reviews I’m reading are real or representative. Some extremely expensive clinics in LA are probably worse than some budget clinics in Turkey. I might be convinced to pay more if I knew I was getting more for my money but the truth is probably that cost is not correlated with quality.
