Senior Member bald-and-bearded Posted February 2, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted February 2, 2022 It could be retrograde alopecia. If you get a transplant you might have to take finasteride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rahal Hair Transplant Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Abhin, I am a little confused. It sounds like you’re saying that you’re planning for a hair transplant for the thinning above your ears? I only see a couple pictures that show part of the top of your scalp however, it doesn’t look like you have any thinning there. I’m not seeing its iimpossible to get a hair transplant in other areas other than the top of your scalp however, first, you would have to figure out why you’re experiencing thinning there. Because this is not typical of male pattern baldness, if there is a particular condition or situation causing this, you would want to remedy or rectify that situation before anything else. Besides, the hair may grow back on it on its own without any need for surgery once you find the cause and eliminate it.

Senior Member HappyMan2021 Posted February 2, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted February 2, 2022 23 is way too young for a hair transplant, sorry. Come back in 5 years. As @Rahal Hair Transplant said as well, first investigate the cause of your hairloss. It looks like you have MPB and retrograde alopecia? Get the situation under control before worrying about hair transplants. For what is worth, yes you are obviously balding, but I think it looks decent enough on you.....mainly because the forelock/middle part is still holding strong. Also you have no crown loss which is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member NARMAK Posted February 2, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted February 2, 2022 OP, you need to start on medication. Finasteride and maybe not Minoxodil just yet but try using Microneedling with a Derma Pen for your temporal areas. You might be able to save your hair that's thinning out. Also, as you are younger. Using medication for a couple years will allow you to see if you stopped/stabilised your hair loss and see whether the issues on the side and back of neck which appears to be retrograde alopecia worsens. You can also do your research and start saving up to go to a proper quality clinic. Also, it will allow you to get some consultations with a reputable clinic to get an idea of what you need.

Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted February 2, 2022 Valued Contributor Share Posted February 2, 2022 Surgery should be a last resort. Are you taking finasteride or minoxidil?
