Senior Member TakingThePlunge Posted January 18, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted January 18, 2011 confused123, I suggest giving our interactive graft calculator a whirl. If you are not already doing so, I also recommend starting Propecia (finasteride) and Rogaine (minoxidil) in order to stabilize your hair loss.

Senior Member MusoInOz Posted January 19, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted January 19, 2011 Confused 123, I have seen Dr Rahal and H&W post some nice crown results, similar to yourself. In most cases the patient received 2000 plus grafts easily. I guess due to the fact the crown is the most difficult area to cover. Have you contacted any of the recommended physicians from this site? That would be the best option they are the professionals, not us. You need to keep in mind the possibilities of future loss, sure you could cover that spot but is your potential pattern a NW6 or above? Utilising sacred grafts in the one area could be a wrong move in the long run. Have you had work done previously? Just my opinion. cheers, "The road to success is always under construction" :cool: I represent Dr Rahal and the associated clinic as a paid patient advisor.
