    Hello Spanker, ontop and gillenator, Thank you for your timely responses and advice. I will continue to maintain faith in the Finateride, it has in fact been performing wonders until a few weeks ago when a fresh shed started. Although, my current shedding cant be entirely blamed on the Fin. It coincides with a helicopter incident and 3x 40+ degree days without much food, water or a blanket in SE Asia a few weeks ago. Now it looks like things are on the way back up. I will also give Minoxodil a try. I hadn't originally because i quite get bad Seborrheic Dermatitis on my crown area and i was nervous about getting a reaction. I also thought, if i start both medications at the same time and started getting bad side effects, i wouldn't know which medication to stop. Anyway thanks again. I will continue to fill in my blog and post more photos for the benefit of others on the hair restoration network. quailo.

    Citizens of the Hair Restoration Network, Im hoping you can sort out my confusion. I am contemplating having hair restoration surgery on my crown area and because i have always had a high hairline, i figure why not treat myself to a bit of a cheeky hairline advancement. So, i have been speaking to a few surgeons and i have narrowed it down to just a few but the problem is, one of them suggested against having me crown filled in and i should just stick to the meds i.e. Fin and Minox. I have been on Fin for about 8 months and i can't really tell if it has improved much. At least i can say it hasn't all fallen out yet. Does anyone know what the complications are of having new hairs placed where thinning hairs still exist? do they just not have room? or do they create in grown hairs? My next question is: As we all know the donor hair area has a finite amount of donor hair to spare and we seem to be limited to 3-4 MAX surgeries. is it irresponsible of me to treat myself to a new hairline when i could potentially need more donor hair in the future? I will attach photos of my current situation for your viewing pleasure. I eagerly await your opinions
