Thanks , I hadn't considered hair fibers. I want to retain my real hair just a bit longer say 5-6 years and then I don't mind shaving it off. Hope fin and min works out meanwhile .

Both the doctors I consulted recommended against DUT and wanted me to stick to FIN , does it work a lot better ?

Thanks I hope it does , intend to stick to the routine this time and hope there are no adverse sides. I'm losing hair on the sides too so not sure how it would end up looking .

Thanks TorontoMan , I've had a completely shaved head for almost the whole of last year. It doesn't look too bad , but I want to hold on to my hair a little bit longer . Am I already too late for fin ? I've seen good results for people who were in my condition . I believe ~2500 grafts would be able to cover the frontal part . Although I'm not sure how it would look overall ?

All their clinics are 2 hrs away by flight , but due to COVID I want to be sure / more informed before traveling. I'm very bad at online consultations so I think it wouldn't be of much use either.

@JohnAC71 Haven't consulted them yet . I've read / seen a lot of good reviews about them , but I stay far away , so want to get some opinions here before travel.

Hi guys , 28 yo guy from india . Been following this forum for a long time and hoping you can help me out. Been losing hair for about 4 years. Hair line has been receding progressively and I have diffuse thinning all over the top of my scalp. I've taken topical 5% fin and minoxidil for 2 years but did not notice much of a regrowth (have to admit I was not regular) . I've considered getting a transplant and visited a couple of doctors . Both advised getting 2100 - 2700 grafts to cover the front of my scalp. And taking oral fin, min and vitamin supplements for the top and crown area and did not recommend getting a transplant done there. I have decided to get on the oral routine for 6 months to see if it makes any difference, but a bit skeptical about getting the transplant done only on the front. I've read about shock loss affecting diffuse thinners during transplant and want to know if it might become a factor. I also did not find a lot of threads here for people with diffuse thinning like myself. My goal would be to get a good density all over and not just on the front , Is this possible? Attached pictures under direct light , under flash and different angles. Looking for advice on what would be the best option for me. Any help would be appreciated guys. Thanks .
