Hi Guys,
Firstly, thank you very much for putting up such a great website. In my research I haven't come across any website like yours which is loaded with so much information, it definitely helps someone like me who is new to HT. I appreciate your efforts a lot !
So, here is my story. I am a 25 year old Project Engineer from California. I was born with a very high hair line and on top of it the size of my head is considered to be big. I was never happy with my hair line and really had a tough time in high school and early twenties.
The last four years were very tough on me. The pressures of graduate school and proving yourself on a job straight out of school really took a toll on me. It was during this time that my hair loss started accelerating. I can no longer use the excuse of "Its my hair line" anymore, it is now pretty apparent that my hair line has started receding and if I dont take care of it I will be having a runway on my head soon.
I have seen and read a number of articles on the website. It looks like my case on the Norwood Scale is of Type 2. As far as finances are concerned thats not a problem for me, I can afford it. I am mostly looking at the surgeons around Southern California.
I am attaching some of my pictures and I would really appreciate your advise on things like approx number of grafts, recommended surgeons, your view of my case etc.
Thanks for reading my post.
P.S: Here are some pics
