Zoomster, you are not following the information here. The OP actually answered his own question. He asks if it looks like he has DUPA (diffused alopecia) but then states in a followup response that he has an autoimmune disease affecting the hair:
The distinction needs to be understood for correct treatment. DUPA is an aggressive form of hair loss, extending into the traditional safe zone, making hair transplantation not viable. Any hair used is going to experience the same problem in the recipient area. This is a disease of the hair.
Lichen planopilaris (LPP) is a disease of the skin, not the hair. Scarring forms underneath the skin as the body's white blood cells start attacking this area in an autoimmune response. This kills off the root of hair. LPP is not male pattern baldness, it's skin inflammation that attacks where the hair grows from.
@Thinner, you need to see a dermatologist who specializes in Trichology ASAP. They can confirm the LPP with skin biopsies. Don't spend tens of thousands of dollars on a hair transplant that will fail because the underlying cause of the hair loss - the skin disease - is thus far untreated. Getting on antibiotics, scalp ointments and using natural botanicals will instead cost hundreds of dollars and will stop the hair loss. Then think about hair transplantation. If you let this LPP go untreated you are throwing your hairline away.
