Regular Member Whats Up Posted June 24, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted June 24, 2009 I am currently at a NW4 level, and have used up a hell of a lot of donor hair transplanting in my forelock, I will be going to see multiple renowned doctors for repair work in fall to inquire if I have enough donor to to make it look natural when I go to a NW6 (which is coming soon I notice when I get out of the shower). I have also inquired on Cole and Bernstein for the complete reversal technique if I am to get bad news from the repair doctors consultation. I would love to be able to move my hairline up so as to me more natural when NW6 starts to kick in. Anyone have any suggestions how I can make a full forelock look natural with not enough donor to fill in the scalp behind it? Attached is photo of current hairline, apex starts 6mm above my eyebrow legnth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member HairHope Posted June 24, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted June 24, 2009 I'm sorry your description doesn't match your narrative. I think you look pretty good - at least not a repair case.

Regular Member Whats Up Posted June 24, 2009 Author Regular Member Share Posted June 24, 2009 HairHope, that photo did not explain my point, here is another photo, yellow arrow indicates transplante hair, red circled area indicates where hair is going to be lost at in the near future.

Senior Member Leeson Posted June 24, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted June 24, 2009 You state you're heading to a NW 6, you seemed to have plenty, now. Are you on meds to try to prevent this? My Hair Loss Website - Dr. Hasson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Whats Up Posted June 25, 2009 Author Regular Member Share Posted June 25, 2009 Baldie42, I curently have some plugs that are camoflaghed so I will be in the process of thinnng those out in Fall, if after those are thinned I can still shave it I certainly will. But I will have to leave the back long tough to cover up my scars so I would have to shave just the top of my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Whats Up Posted June 25, 2009 Author Regular Member Share Posted June 25, 2009 Leeson, yes I have been on propecia for the last 10 years (there is a limit to how long this will stay effective, I have also started using Minoxidil within the last month) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member NW4recession Posted June 26, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted June 26, 2009 Can you tell us how many grafts you have used up so far? If you have used 3000 or less, you may have plenty of donor left to give a thinner, but natural look behind the forelock.
