I am 27 years and i have had a receding hairline since i was 19 and and thin hair since 21 . I feel very uncomfortable. Is it too early to get a HT with 2700-3000 DHI in A area and maybe B area too? I know i will never have 150g/cm2 but Now i have about 25-40 and when i look at my father (55years) he looks the same as i maybe he 10%less density but still hair on his head. Do you think 3000 too or should i wait until i am above 30
Answer: Wait for 1 year. You have hair thinning an minimal shedding. That means that there is VERY small room for grafts to be implanted without damaging surrounding follicles. So for th emeantime, stay away from hair restoration procedures. Find an expert doctor, get into a medical, FDA approved treatment for hair loss and review the results in 6-12 months. I am willing to BET that you will have a full head of hair!

Answer: Is 27 too young Seeing your photos, there is more hair loss to come. Best to stabilize this before or at the same time as transplants. Remember prevention is better than cure. Today a well informed Hair Surgeon will know how to stabilize most patients. Then have transplants to the front, let the medication do what it can to help the crown. After a year have another consultation, see how the transplant turned out, have more if you need. Personally you should have FUE, not FUT if there is a chance that you may need/want to wear short hair later in life.

Answer: When to have a hair transplant? Age is not the issue - it is trying to predict how advanced your hair loss will be in the future and what is your safe donor. Family history, age of onset, rapidity of progression, and current thinning pattern all need to be taken into account.Consideration of medical treatment to stabilise hair loss is also important. You should see a reputable hair transplant surgeon who will advise you on your long term appearance in mind and is not after a quick ‘sale’.

Answer: Are you a candidate for a hair transpant? What determines your candidacy for a hair restoration, is the history of hair loss, your understanding of its progression, your expectations, and how you choose to live your life long as you are well informed. My advice to you is to learn as much as possible about your own hair loss by using the internet, visiting doctors, looking at your past pictures, and your family history. It still is possible that you may not be a candidate, but definitely explore all your options and exercise preventative care, it does work.

Answer: Transplant at 27 Being 27 in and of itself isn't a contraindication for a hair transplant. Other factors, such as hair loss pattern, donor hair availability, family history (both sides) and desires & expectations are factors. Typically, the crown area is not grafted in younger men but working on the front would be a possibility. Find a local hair restoration surgeon and come up with a plan that covers potential future hair loss, and includes non-surgical adjuncts to maintain your hair and prevent further loss.
