Senior Member Thehairupthere Posted November 17, 2011 Senior Member Posted November 17, 2011 Welcome. From the photo you put up I'm not sure you should consider transplantation at this stage. It seems that you have thinning through the middle of your head being a norwood 4A possibly a future 5A, but I believe you would experience a lot of shocking from a procedure. I would recommend starting on medication such as finasteride and minoxidil which can help regrow dormant/miniaturized hairs and stop any further hair loss. Do that consistently for one year and then reevaluate your status, before considering surgery. I am a consultant for Dr. True and Dr. Dorin. These opinions are my own.
