  1. Have you tried shaving it all off/buzz-cutting it to see what it would look like and if you'd like it? From the pictures you posted, your hairloss seems too extensive for you to be happy with the result of a hair transplant surgery (but I'm neither a doctor nor an expert)
  2. Absolutely not true. I had the surgery a week ago and created an account yesterday to share my experience
  3. I paid about 8,500 for the surgery and I think I'll be very happy in a few weeks. I'm still bruised and swollen so can't really see the final result yet. I had two transplant surgeries 10 years ago (with Dr. Rassman) for temple areas and sides of hairline (both original surgery and FUE) and the only thing I would tell you to take into consideration is that you'll need more than one HT surgery to achieve the right density (a good Dr. will tell you the same thing) AND the transplanted hair can be coarser and kinkier when it grows back. Since you sound like you wanna lower your hairline quite a bit, the hairline lowering surgery would probably be cheaper and quicker in the long run.
  4. Hey -- Have you thought of having a hairline lowering surgery performed? If you're not actively losing your hair and since your hair density is thick, it might be the perfect answer for you. Check out Dr. Aharonov's website (he's in LA)(he has a unique technique, which doesn't require the use of an expender). I just had the procedure done a week ago!
