joekiggy Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 I'm relatively new to hair loss. I had a slightly receding hairline since I was a teenager, but it was nothing I worried about because it remained relatively the same through my early 20s as well. And other than the recessed part, my hair was really thick. I figured it would continue to recess, but I thought it would be gradual. This past year it seems that the pace has picked up. It's recessed quite a bit. I can't lie, it's been quite traumatic. I look so different. I can't imagine getting accustomed to it, it just doesn't look good. I've been reading a little bit about treatments like Propecia which might possibly prevent further hair-loss. I hope this works, and that I might combine this with a hair transplant to restore what I lost... but I'm unclear as to the probability of success. I any case, who's the best person to see about this? To give me an assessment of what I should do in my specific case? My doctor? A nutritionist? Are there hair doctors? I don't know where to go... Any help would be MUCH, MUCH appreciated. Joe
Senior Member NEWHAIRPLEASE Posted December 22, 2011 Senior Member Posted December 22, 2011 Joe You are lucky to have found this site! There are several recommended hair transplant surgeons on this site..you can see any of them, or go see a local dermatologist, to have your situation personally assessed..You definitely should consider propecia and rogaine! Also, you will not get all of the answers you are looking for overnight, hang around this board for a couple of months and you will learn more than you need to know...it all comes down to research!! Do your research and don't jump into anything! Newhairplease!! Dr Rahal in January 19, 2012:) 4808 FUT grafts- 941 singles, 2809 doubles, 1031 triples, 27 quads My Hairloss Website
