Thank you for your time. The thing is i haven't lost many hair in the past 4 years. In fact i think that i'm almost in the same situation. I am truly not that concerned with the near future, i am just unhappy with the way things are right now. And i would like to do something about it. I know this situation is most likely to progress, but given the way it has progressed in the past 4 years, i think that i would have some pretty happy 6 or 7 years before having to do another procedure. I have an older brother, he has 30 years, and he has the same pattern, which in his case is unnoticeable, because his hairline is quite low, and he has pretty awesome hair. My dad, at the age of 59 still has a pretty decent hair for his age. I think the only problem with me is that my hairline was originally very high, and it has been bothering me... Thank you all for your time
