Asking for a friend

Tony 0- Norwood Reaper 1

Hello guys, hope you’re well! John 1 - Norwood Reaper 0. I was doomed. I grew almost everything back, and finally, after a year on dut I’m starting seeing the final step, the regrowth on my temples. But that’s not me the one who needs help, I’m a dut hyper responder. My friend tony needs help. He’s shy, deaf and got confidence issues. He’s balding, badly and quickly and this only worsens his situation . He was always obsessed with his hair. The 1h in front of the mirror looking and combing them kind of guy. He clings on the hope that maaaaybe the hair loss will stop, but it doesn’t seem so… he asked me about anything since he believes that I took some magic potion but unfortunately that ain’t the case. He keeps asking about this and that but he doesn’t want to pop a pill. Fine, that’s his decision, but he keeps tormenting himself and me over and over and over again. Some of you guys have been through it, how can I help him? He’s getting ridiculous, he’s starting doing combovers, ridiculous ones…and let’s not even talki about hair transplants because then we’d be descending into madness. He’s convinced that if he gets a transplant he’ll get back the same hair density he had at 16 lol. He’s delusional. The pic is me, one side is may ‘22(1 month on dut, I made already huge progresses by then but I’ve got no pre dut pics) the other may ‘23(1y1m). He’s a nw5/6 with half of my may ‘22 left(density)…maybe… thank you in advance for any advice guys :) we’re 27 btw

Hi John 1. In terms of options, you have the following: finasteride (to block DHT); dutasteride (if finasteride proves ineffective); minoxidil (to strengthen miniaturised hairs); surgery (FUT or FUE); SMP (scalp micropigmentation); and concealers (hair fibres). All the best.
