Guest Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 I have read some posts that you are willing to transplant young patients if it's the right situation. I know you have to be conservative, etc. My question is that in your experience, do most patients whom you transplant at a young age wind up with hair in the front and a bald crown? I guess I'm trying to figure out if that is the most realistic expectation for myself. I'm assuming progression to the NW 7 scale eventually. With a conservative approach, can that look (hair in the front, bald crown) be achieved? Because if I have that, I'd be ecstatic for my final result. Thanks.

Guest Posted November 11, 2002 Share Posted November 11, 2002 Young patients should limit work to the isolated frontal forelock pattern in my opinion. This pattern anticipates possible future loss and still looks natural if done with naturally occurring follicular unit grafts.
