  1. Hello all,

     

    First of all, I am new here and must say it's a vibrant forum.

     

    I was wondering if I could get your opinions.

     

    I am 36 years old and have thinned in the crown. Nothing is completely bald, but without Toppik, it is certainly noticeable.

     

    I have a pretty strong forelock with some thinning on either side thereof.

     

    I would like to get enough grafts in the crown so that my thinning is not noticeable.

     

    I was told by a hair restoration surgeon in Buffalo that I had enough donor hair to do two people's heads. I know he's exaggerating, but I take that to mean I have a very dense donor area, though I did not get any "numbers".

     

    I know it is generally counseled against, but do you think I could start with my crown? How many grafts would it take for good coverage there?

     

    I want to plan for the future and anticipate the thin areas on either side of my forelock to be history in time. The forelock looks pretty strong.

     

    I am on minoxidil foam, nizoral, and won't consider propecia. I may use spironolactone.

     

    I would love to post pictures, how do I do it?
