Anouar's Hair Loss Story

I started to notice hairloss at the age of 17 with the slow recession of my hairline. I want to say throughout my high school i was complemented for having nice hair by the ladys. Oh the irony. Through 13 year period i used 2% rogaine on my hairline to no avail. At age 30 after breaking up with my girlfriend of 5 years my confidence took a hit. I became depressed. I decided at this stage that I needed an ht to boost my confidence and make me feel better about myself since I would be back in the dating scene and I wanted to look my best. I had my ht with Dr. Limmer Sr. I had a total of 1000 grafts. The only research I did was Read the "Bald Truth" which recommended Dr. Limmer and since he was practically in my backyard why not. The experience was very hard for me. I went through a lot of pain. It was the most painful thing I had ever done. I vowed never to have another transplant based on the experiance. Although the results were natural, it wasn’t cosmetically pleasing. I had to use conceilers and careful styling to make it look presentable. I this time I also started proscar. I felt that it slowed it down a bit. I've been using conceilers and for about 11 years now and i'm very tired of them. I have thoroughly researched over and over the possibility of doing another ht for about 3 years now. At 41 I'm have finally committed to have another ht this summer. I'm very nervous about the outcome and looking forward to not using any more conceilers on my hairline. Hopefully this will be the last. I just want to be able to style my hair the way I want to.
