Acceptable rate of hair loss for a transplant

What rate of hair loss is acceptable for a hair transplant?

Say if someone late 30s was on finasteride for 4 years, and they lost 0.8cm in the temples and 0.2cm at the hairline center, and maybe 15% density in the entire NW6 area (though this is more subjective, seems to vary by season, still no scalp visible when hair is dry).

Would it still be ok to get transplant (ignoring all other factors)?

Sounds okay to me, late 30s so like 37-39? Finasteride for 4 years is a long enough time. Depending what you think, do you think you need a hair transplant then do it. It does not sound like alot losing these numbers though and you cannot see any scalp whatsoever? 

Do you have any photos? Would help immensely.
