First of all, I am not an ideal hair transplant candidate. I've researched hair loss for a long time. In fact.. I am hardly a candidate. You can judge based on the pictures. Ultimately.. though is not a hair transplant a relative procedure? It's a cosmetic procedure, right? There are people who are bald and perfectly happy vica versa.
I am a 23 year old male with minimal hair loss. I am seeking a hair transplant to revitalize the frontal hairline that I use to have a few years ago. I've already had a reputable doctor say that I would need around 1000 grafts to achieve what I want but the real questions are -- how much risk am I taking in the long run?
I've used minoxidil everywhere for the last six months.
I just started Propecia and plan to use it indefinitely.
I use a hairloss vitamin and DS Lab Revita hairloss shampoo
My theoretical perspective is use propecia for a long time to prevent further hair loss and then do an early hair transplant and kind of hope I don't lose any more hair and thus not require any further hair transplant's.
It's obviously a costly procedure.. and I have to weigh the risks.
That fact is that.. I can get a hair transplant done and really if you have the money you can get it done but is it in my best interest in the long run even if I stay on Propecia forever? Or am I playing with fire so much as to possibly burn myself forever? ( By doing an early hair transplant )
I just want opinions honestly.
What would you do if you were me and wanted the hair you use to have and in were in my position?
I'm attaching two pictures. Not the greatest.. or most professional, however, that is irrelevant.
One picture shows the thickness, density that I use to have in my hair and the second shows the obvious decling/receding hairline.
Here are the two pictures. Thank you for any advice/support you may offer. I really do need some honest opinions. I'm afraid of the possible consequences in the long run if I do decide to go through with a hair transplant but maybe I shouldn't be so afraid.
