  1. Hey Matt, thanks for the reply. I went through your journey thread +vid and was really impressed!. I added a flattering pic (this is how I usually look), are you sure I'm nw5?. I see what you say about tackling the frontal loss. do you think I could pull off a pushed back hair style of high hairline-forelock density to cover the back or is this wishful thinking? I'm inclined to do a FUE because if my condition becomes worse I'd want the option to shave it all off.
  2. I've seen your posts (in detail) a few weeks ago and I get what you and others are saying (and the reasoning behind it which is logical). But I know that my hair responds well to Propecia, since I've been using it for years, and if I stick to it and have a crown FUE then maybe the glory days will shine once again upon me. I see people doing crowns at 22-25, I didn't think this was a special thing, I mean I know my status is bad but I've seen worse (I think?). I can't stress how my crown bothers me and it has a major effect on my self-esteem to be honest (conscious about it every single day). I'm not going to sit until I'm 35 (or 6 months for that matter). I would rather do a crown job and run on the premise that in the future we would be able to multiply unites using stem cell research. What do you think?
  3. Yes I'm not leaving Propecia any time soon now. Got a bad reaction to either Minox or Nizoral that has caused Folicutis after one application (now I'm on antibiotics). I want to fully commit, but in my state I can't even style my hair and my crown is completely bald. I gotta get a FUE either way (if not then it stays in my donor area so what's the point of that). Never heard of these docs, gotta do a research on them. What about Rahal and dr. Feriduni?
  4. Hi everyone! I'd really appreciate your opinion since after years of dealing with my hair and after lurking for a while here, I want to take the plunge and do a FUE on my crown + possible hairline. The crown has been bugging me for years and is my main concern. i'm looking to fill it up completely. I was on Propecia for 8 years before stopping, had a massive shed and gotten from only crown to this crown + diffused state (btw what NW am I?) and now I'm on the meds again. I've added images of both dry and wet hair. In reality my hair looks better (I took the photos under a very bright light). Am I a good candidate? is it possible to get a full head of hair again (how many grafts to fill crown?)?. I'm in the look for a top crown surgeon but even after weeks of researching I still don't see great FUE crown jobs. Money is not a concern (I'm in Europe and willing to travel if necessary). Your thoughts?
  5. Hi guys long time lurker, I'm going to take the plunge and I want to start consult with top crown surgeons.Have a big bald spot and a diffused nw3 vertex but the bald spot has caused me so much emotional pain that I just have to get it done. Looking to do a FUE. Saw great things about Dr. Rahal but haven't seen crown results from him. Can anyone suggest top crown surgeons?
