Regular Member Rafael Manelli Posted March 22, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted March 22, 2023 The one thing that gives me pause is this slight demarcation here. It could be nothing, but it could also be the first hint of Norwood 7. You're on meds which is good but just make sure you monitor the situation.

My father is maybe NW4 at age 73. I am in my fourties’ now. I think my hair loss have stopped with finasterid, but not 100% sure of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Rafael Manelli Posted March 22, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted March 22, 2023 Even if you went for the surgery it would be a small op and shouldn't be a big threat to your long term donor integrity. I'd go for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also have a feeling spending 500-800 grafts will not make a big difference long term, if I go NW7 I would have problems already now luckily I have plenty of chest hair that could be used in the worst case scenario I guess it comes down to if I really want to do it, but I have been thinking about it for over two years so I guess I want it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Rafael Manelli Posted March 22, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted March 22, 2023 Have you considered adding a few hundred grafts to the temple points as well? I don't think you're looking at 800 grafts for the area proposed. More like 300. But it could make a big difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Rafael Manelli Posted March 22, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted March 22, 2023 You appear to have relatively straight and fine hair which is best for temples and hairline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valued Contributor Berba11 Posted March 22, 2023 Valued Contributor Share Posted March 22, 2023 Your hairline looks great and very, very natural. Personally I think you’d be mad to mess with it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Tiger2050 Posted March 23, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted March 23, 2023 (edited) What’s your age? Since you’re on finasteride and it would probably be a very small procedure, I don’t see a big risk if you go to a great doctor. Go back to Heitmann, all of the best doctors have long wait lists. How do you get in touch with Dr. Heitmann? I’ve tried emailing the address on his website and also his patient advisor but never heard back.

Senior Member Rawkerboi Posted June 1, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted June 1, 2023 When majority of the members are saying that you don't need another HT then better listen. Why wasting precious grafts when you have achieved good results. What if down the line you Start loosing your crown? Imagine yourself with perfect straight hairline and complete bald on top? Better save your precious grafts and stop focusing on achieving straight Hairline which will obviously look quite un natural given that you are above Forty now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member shiba1985 Posted June 1, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted June 1, 2023 you are suffering from some body dysmorphia to be obsessed with something so minor but at the same time, if anyone can afford to be aggressive , it is someone like you. Go for it. get on the waiting list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted June 2, 2023 Valued Contributor Share Posted June 2, 2023 Honestly your hair looks excellent. By that I mean that it also looks natural. Most people would kill to have your hair and your hairline! If it ain't broke then it doesn't need fixing. A straight hairline will stand out as unnatural. All the best!
