  1. I have been considering an ht for a while now and was hoping you guys could answer a question. Is it possible to have grafts placed behind my existing hairline so I could have fewer HTs down the road? Is this very common? I've been considering Dr. Wolfe. Does he do this? Thanks.

  3. Has anyone here used this? Are the results as good as they say? How does it hold up when wet or windy? Does it wash out? Thanks for any help.

  5. I think this is not all that umcommon. Both sides of my hairline are receded, but one is farther back then the other. The doc I consulted with said I would need more grafts on that side. Honestly though, you're not in bad shape. The difference is only going to be noticeable to you.
  6. It's hard to judge a ht with only one picture at one angle. They look bundled but it is zoomed in quite a bit. How old is this ht?
  7. What do you mean by good candidate? As in if I lose all my hair will have sufficient donor hair? My doctor is confident I would. Is that what you mean?
  8. While I said my hair loss isn't bad, it is quite noticeable. This may not seem like a big deal to you older guys but it bothers me now while I'm young. My point was that now is the time when I would want to have all of my hair. I don't want to wait until I'm in really bad shape. It's not a matter of future hair loss. I do appreciate the opnions though and I believe me I am in no way going to go diving in. Oh, one question: Why would it be the biggest mistake of my life if I have a good doctor? It would be FUE, so no strip scar, and most people seem to think it is a good decision. Just wondering. Thanks.
  9. I need advice on getting a hair transplant. I'm only 22 and I have noticeable hair loss at the hair line and when my head gets wet I can tell I've thinned a lot all over. I've been on propecia for 10 months now and it has greatly slowed my hair loss, although I'm not sure if it's completely stopped it. I'm genetically destined to lose all of my hair. I think the question is just when. Anyway, here's my situation. I've done all the research and have snooped around on here for a long time and even visited a good doctor. The doctor was hesitant and said since I was so young I might end up changing my mind (because if you get a ht and keep losing your hair you have to stick with it). The thing is that I'm very willing to stick with it down the road, but I'm unsure about doing it now. My hair loss is noticeable but not extreme. The thinning is not all that noticeable on top and the hairline isn't that bad because I wear my hair down. I not sure about doing the ht because of this. I don't mind having a receding hairline at 32 but I don't want one at 22. I'm in college and it just bothers me. I think about it a lot (esp during wind and water conditions) and I think it would be better to just go for it, but everyone is concerned about my age. My doc said I would only need a couple hundred hairs at each temple, maybe more. He agreed that it was more noticeable in my case though because I have a larger forehead. At the end of the consultation he told me he would be willing to do the surgery (since it is a cosmetic surgery after all) but said I should finish my year on propecia to see the results. My year on prop is almost up. I'm I dumb to go plunging into this so early or should I enjoy having hair while I'm young? Thanks guys.

  11. Does anyone actually know how common shock loss is and to what degee? I was just curious. Thanks.
  12. I'm about equal distance from both docs, probably closer to Haber though. I think I'll look into both. Thanks again.
  13. Does anyone know of a good tp doctor in or around Ohio? I'm really not looking forward to flying accross the country for an operation. Thanks guys.
