Ask yourself this. Do you want your hair to control the rest of your life or do you want to live your life to the fullest? We only have 1 life to live, make the most of it. Forget about the hair.

What happened with this case? Did you end up doing a second touch up with Umar?

Amazing result for so few grafts on such large area. And you still have some more growing.

I like the design of your current hairline, you could probably thicken it up a bit, if it was me i'd keep the general shape of the hairline. I think a man looks a lot sharper with a v shaped hairline than with a straight one, especially when he gets older and dresses well. Think Roger Sterling from Mad Men. Plus it saves you those extra grafts for the crown and midsection down the road.

Can we get some more info about the case? Age of patient, number of grafts fue or fut?

Thanks for the reply. I really appreciate it. I actually had a receded hairline as long as I can remember. I even looked at my 1st grade picture and I even had a slight one back then, but it's been progressively getting worse since I was about 17 so it's definitely MPB. It's not too bad right now and most people can't tell that I have a receding hairline especially if i style it right. I have actually been on hair loss forums since I was about 21, when I first started taking Propecia and during that time have done a lot of research about surgeons. My number 1 choice has always been Rahal, and Feller. But there have been some things that put me off Feller, so now I'm looking at alternatives and so far the 3 that I really like are Rahal, Bisanga and Konoir.

Unfortunately I won't have your hair when I get to your age either hehe. I'm 27 and half of my hair is already grey (great hair genes right?), but that doesn't bother me as much as my receding hairline which is why I'm here. Dr. Konoir looks like a great surgeon. I probably won't be considering a transplant for another 3 years, but can you tell me how much 2,110 grafts cost you? I think that is probably around the same amount I will need. If you are not able to provide that information, I understand. Congrats on the result, it looks fantastic.

I'm pretty impressed with the results Dr. Radha is able to achieve with low amount of grafts. This is not the first impressive low graft result i've seen from her.

Finasteride will not make your hairline worse. If it does become worse it's because MPB in the temple region is usually much more agressive than anywhere else and Fin is not able to keep up. That's why all of the currently available hair loss products are most effective in the crown and midscalp region. You might experience an initial shed which will make you think that you're losing more hair due to Fin, but just keep on taking it because shedding especially in the beginning is normal. Those hairs usually come back thicker and stronger.

That's really amazing, especially for only 1300 FUE grafts.

I don't think 1k grafts will give you a desirable result for that level of loss. Like somebody asked, who was your surgeon?

I see. I would get a blood test done just to be sure nothing is amiss. The work itself looked good and Dr. Lindsey is a world renowned surgeon so something else has to be at play here... Does anybody know if for example, problems with the thyroid wold have a negative effect on the growth of transplanted hair?

I wonder what went wrong. Not sure if you're comfortable with answering this, but was blood work done before the surgery? Do you have any vitamin deficiencies? Do you take any other medications?

Well the OP said So I assumed it was NW6 or NW7, since NW5 is not quite "totally bald". It's worth taking into consideration but it doesn't mean you'll end up in the same position especially if you take action with medicine now. Generally if somebody is destined to become a NW6/NW7 they will start losing hair at a very early age and since you're still a NW2 at 31 that doesn't seem to be the case. Don't mean that it still can't happen, but the chances are much lower. It would be helpful if you could post pics of your hair, maybe you just have a mature hairline.

Nice result. How old is the patient?
