Thanks for the comment, I really appreciate that. So basically what you say is, if I go for the HT route, the grafts that will be taken from my donor will not survive 100%? None of them? Even if my donor looks the same for all those years? Thank you!

Yes, I totally understand what you mean, however, my donor (Sides and back) looks exactly the same for over 20 years, does it means they are still weak or those hairs that actually survived during all those years will stay for ever? When I look at my father who's 90's, and norwood 7 of course, his sides and donor area also not as thick as someone who never lost a single hair, however, He has enough hair for 2000 grafts that's for sure (Incase you consider that scar probably will be slighty visible). The reason I consider to have hair transplant to my temples and hairline is because that without it the fullcap will look like a wig, however, with it, it's 100% undetecable. Take a look at this guy for example : Hair underlying Fullcap [ pics] I also must say that in those photos the hair looks much weaker than it is in real life, if i grow it for about 2 weeks it may look better, but still thin compared to others. I can tell that you want me to avoid a surgery and i totally get your point and actually may listen to you, however, I don't see how it wouldn't work when the hairs I got left in my donor are 100% permanent (Since I didn't lose a single hair there for over 20 years as I mentioned), and also the reason that scar is no an issue because I will cover it with a fullcap system. I really want to know what you think, your opinion is important for me Dr.Bhatti, thank you for the offer, but body hair won't look natural for my temple points\hairline, I do have a lot of body hair and very very veryyy thick beard, however those hairs are too thick for such a fine place, thanks for the offer though!

Hi, Thank you so much for your reply, Yes, my donor is weak, however, 1,000-2,000 grafts are impossible? The reason I ask is because I'm going to wear hair system again, and I would like to fill my temples and if possible the first 0.5-1cm max in my hairline. I do not mind if scar will be seen because i'm wearing a fullcap hair system (Which means for the entire head including sides and back). When I see results of 2,000 grafts for example, I don't see how I can't have that amount (Again, if I don't mind if scar will be seen at ALL). If a doctor will take about 750 grafts each side of my head via FUE and 1 strip at the back, i'm sure that even 3,000 grafts are possible. am I missing something here? Because after all, I ain't asking to transplant my entire head which I know is not possible, I just want to transplant my temple points and the first 1 cm of my head. Thanks!

Hello, I'm 54 years old, norwood 7 since I was 27, i have also been thinning in my sides\nap area\ and even the donor. However, my donor and sides looks the same for over 20 years, which means the thinning has been stopped. I see most people that norwood 7 doesn't have thick sides like norwood 2 for example. My question is, since my donor is not thick, but I do know the hairs that remain there are DHT resistant, would it be possible to take ONLY 2,000 grafts? I'm not looking for anything special, just to have some hair at my 1\3 which will also be thinning, I don't mind, Thank you! Here's the photos : https://imgur.com/a/RRtiz https://imgur.com/a/MMHEK
