Dear Sir,
Seeing my pics do you really advice I require a hair transplant. I have saved my head to apply the prescribed medication effectively. I have been applying the medication like 4 to 5 days.
Kindly do let me know should I add oral medication like Finax (Finasteride) 1mg to have better result. As hair transplant is a very costly affair, kindly advice some cost effective solution for my frontal hair regrowth.
One more query, How long I need to take medication.
Thank You....
