Seems like you’re already in a good place. You’re not a good candidate for surgery, forget about HTs. Keep shaving it suits you 🙌🏼 3 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Moderators Al - Moderator Posted June 10, 2021 Moderators Share Posted June 10, 2021 (edited) It sounds like you are OK with being bald, but would rather have hair if you can get a decent amount of it. If that's the case then I will tell you to forget about a hair transplant or any other hair remedies and stay bald. If you had more existing hair to work with then I'd tell you to go for it, but with your limited donor and since you aren't extremely depressed about the bald look then you will save yourself a lot of money, time, and trouble by staying the way you are. You would feel a lot worse if you ended up with a bad result or even just a small improvement that would make you still feel bald and end up shaving your head anyway, but have to possibly deal with some scars that wouldn't have been there plus the fact that it cost you thousands of dollars. Have a great life. Edited June 10, 2021 by BeHappy 4 Al Forum Moderator (formerly BeHappy) I am a forum moderator for hairrestorationnetwork.com.

Senior Member aaron1234 Posted June 10, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted June 10, 2021 All the advice you've received to avoid a HT is sound. Also, the shaved head and beard look works for you, so just embrace it. If anything maybe try minoxidil and/or low dose fin to see if it can thicken things up for you. SMP is an option as well but be careful as there are many clinics who deliver awful results. If you are in Europe look into Milena Lardi's Beauty Medical practice. 3 Dr. G: 1,000 grafts (FUT) 2008 Dr. Paul Shapiro: 2,348 grafts (FUT) 2009 ~ 1,999 grafts (FUT) 2011 ~ 300 grafts (Scar Reduction) 2013 Dr. Konior: 771 grafts (FUT) 2015 ~ 558 grafts (FUT) 2017 ~ 1,124 grafts (FUE) 2020 My Hair Transplant Journey with Shapiro Medical Group Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member pradeepbr Posted June 13, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted June 13, 2021 I feel he just needs around 5000 grafts for full coverage. I feel a transplant upto mid scalp is still possible using scalp froM safe zone and beard. I am curious Why is this not an option? I myself was grade 7 bald to begin with. I have now got hair till mid scalp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Rocketman1 Posted June 14, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted June 14, 2021 Sorry but saying there is generally no opportunity for this situation is wrong. It always depends on customers expectations, budget and how much "pain" in terms of process- time he is willing to take... A bald forehead looks always bad. So for some people a front half with sparse hair as a buzz cut could already make the difference for the proper person. We should not alwasys consider the opinion only from a NW 2 which has made his head full again with 2500 grafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUCCI Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 33 minutes ago, Marko said: Nop nothing, I don't really want to take a medicine for baldness You have an aggresive hair loss, and wihout any medical treatment your hair loss will progress. Your donor area looks weak and you have a huge recipient area. So no chances to achieve a decent result without any medicine in your case and with this aggressive hair loss. The best option you have is to shave your head and maybe try Scalp Micropigmentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
