  1. Hello, my name is Piper Ramsey, my son is 18yrs old and has early onset hereditary pattern baldness 3A. He started losing his hair at 16yrs old. He’s currently taking propecia and has had 5 PrP therapy sessions which hasn’t worked and has also used minoxidil for 8 months which gave him bad dandruff and a rash. I need to be honest and tell you he’s been to see two other hair surgeons, one put him on propecia and the other did the PrP therapy. Both of them said they will not do transplants on him until he’s a little older(one says 1yr and the other says a few years). He turned 18 on April 5. My son is deeply depressed. He’s been bullied at school because of his hair, has quit all school sports and wants to be home schooled for his senior year and doesn’t want to go to college. He’s completely isolated himself. Nobody seems to understand the mental anguish and low self esteem his hair loss is causing. No one should have to go through this at such a young age. He won’t leave his room. I don’t know what to do, my son won’t be able to handle another rejection from a doctor. Can you please let me know if there is a doctor out there that would consider doing the surgery. I can email any pictures if you would like. Also, I myself had fut transplants done 24yrs ago when I was 21.
