It likely wasn’t aggressive, you just hadn’t noticed it as it’s hard to detect on time. And coming off finasteride for 2 months isn’t a massive problem, you are likely to regain that ground, and you may have been experiencing a shed. 
 

yeah you could address the the hair line now, but you may have a bigger problem later if you don’t see how you progress on fin. 

The bald spots in the front have stuck so far for the past year though but indeed hope it can regrow some over time or at least maintain it

Diffuse thinner, think you would benefit more from meds than a transplant. Right now the risks of surgery outweigh the benefit as you may shock as much hair as you try to replace. This in my experience searching online, seems to be the type of hair loss that responds best to treatment. You could get thickening throughout and you’ve hardly receded at the hairline. Wouldn’t consider anything till you try fin, my opinion . 

Hey man, thanks for your response, definitely appreciate it and will take it into consideration.

Regarding finasteride, see my post above.

You still seem to have lots of native hair. How old are you? Have you tried meds? If not, You should first get on meds to try and stabilize hair loss. At such an early stage of hairloss meds might work really well and you won't need surgery.

Based on the amount of native hair you have I highly doubt any surgeon will want to perform surgery. Normally with more extensive shock loss and an experienced surgeon they are able to work around existing hair to prevent permanent damage but currently nyour hair is very close together and may be impossible to avoid damaging.

The only thing may be temples they may be agree to do.

Hey man thank you for your response.

I'm currently 27, and my hair loss started really aggressively around 3 year ago suddenly (it was extremely dense before). Then I took finasteride for about 1.5 years, and since my hair had regrown a bit, and regained some thickness, I foolishly thought I no longer needed finasteride and stopped taking it for 2 months. Of course this led to a huge amount of hair loss, bringing me to a stage much worse than before I started finasteride and leading to the two pretty low density spots in the front. I'm back on it now again and the loss seems to have stabilized.

Thank you for your opinion. FYI, I got an estimation of roughly around 1200 grafts required to strengthen/restore my hairline based on pictures.

Hey guys,

This is my first post here and so far I've learned a lot, awesome forum!

However, due to my hair loss pattern I have some doubts about how risky it would be to increase the density near the front / temples (you can see some really low density areas there), as I've read multiple times that transplanting hairs in diffuse areas can damage the surrounding existing hairs.

What do you guys think?

Here you can see a pic of the front/top in harsh bathroom lighting, and one of the crown from the top in less harsh lighting.

Looking forward to your responses!
