I am a 34 year old male considering crown hair transplant surgery. Would FUE be acceptable? (Photo)

Since your hair loss is very minimal, I would recommend you continue the finasteride and possibly look into topical solutions such as minoxidil and possible at home laser therapies.  See if you can over time get some density back in the crown.  If the thinning bothers you so much that you cannot wait, then FUE would be acceptable to transplant in the thinning region.  However, it would always be best to get advice from a qualified hair restoration surgeon that can examine your scalp in person and give you recommendations.

Thank you for submitting your question, at your age, would recommend to continue your finasteride. PRP, laser cap and  amino acids is also recommended. When you are ready for your FUE, approx.  1000 grafts would help create more density.  Best wishes.

500 to 1000 grafts that you were told may be acceptable.  However it may not give you the fullness you once had or give you a no-see-through effect.  Aside from possible shock hair loss and continued hair loss, you need a lot to make an impact on a minimally thinning area. Example:  Adding 10 hairs in an area that has 100 hairs will not make an impact versus adding 10 hairs in an area that has 20 hairs.  Using drugs (Propecia or Rogaine) may give you a better result than surgery with less risk.  Example: Drugs such as Propecia or Rogaine can make those 100 hairs thicker while growing additional hairs in between. Finally (as I always advocate) you need an examination and a diagnosis before deciding on a treatment plan.
