Question

I’m a 23 year old male. As you can see it looks like I’ve receded around my temple areas. When I draw a straight line from the lowest point of my frontal hairline across my forehead and measure up to my temple points it measures at nearly 2cm.

Receding hairline is not a hair loss because of ongoing process of androgenetic alopecia but  a simple juvenile type maturing of frontal hair line.  That is seen almost every young boys almost between 16-21 that have a very rounded hairline without recession in the corners.  Recession in the corners is a sign of mature pattern male frontal hair line. So I dont advice you to have a hair restoration surgery because that may change your natural look except receding hairline badly efffects your social life and causes a psychological and physical  inadequacy in your life.

Based on the frontotemporal recession and lack of hair loss in the rest of the scalp you are currently a Norwood Class 2.
