I think the time has arrived that I actually take the plunge and get a hair transplant. My current hair is receding at the temples and become a little more 'hair pluggy' over the past two to three years. On this basis, I'd say I'm a mix between III Vertex and IV.
I'm looking for a highly respected surgeon located in Europe that offers reasonable prices for the grafts. I'd be looking at 2,000-3,000 grafts initially and I believe I have a good donor area (when compared to others, the area is quite thick).
I know there are multiple techniques that are regularly mentioned but I'm more concerned about grafts, respected surgeon, results, and cost, rather than the potential for scars. I've also noticed some what appear to me to be dodgy posts where individuals sign up to prop up other surgeons; other posters seem to have noticed this phenomenon too.
I know there are lists around but I'd like to challenge everyone here to please offer me briefly a respected surgeon who can restore my hairline. I'm not worried about the crown for the moment as my hair on top is quite thick (just becoming more patchy under the light as time progresses). My budget is looking around the 4,000-5,000 mark, so hopefully that is reasonable enough.
Based on this, I'd really appreciate your responses as I'm becoming very anxious about my hairline/temples and wish to resolve this as soon as possible.
Thanking you in advance!
