You make great points!
And yes you are correct, I wouldn't recommend a HT for anyone under the age of 30. I was just speaking for my case.
If I could press a button??? NO WAY would I have gotten it...however in my case, looking back, I'm glad I did because right now I'd just bald ( which would be ok ) but having the work at 18 forced me to have to go to Dr Rahal and that has restored my confidence to my teens. But I've also really rededicated myself to continue to use my hair loss meds.
In my case, it worked out for the best.
