I am 23 and my hair is starting you thin. The bald guys in my family have norwood 6/7. If I get to that point, are hair transplants worth it? What can I expect (how many treatments? Cost? Grafts? Usual thickness of hair?) Is it to early to start thinking transplants? Just looking for information so I can better understand what I'm getting into. Thank-you for your time
Answer: 23 you with hair loss, wants to consider options jjl93,I would recommend that you have a complete evaluation with a hair loss expert in your area. This is a chronically progressive genetic condition in most young men with a family history. However, there are some other causes of hair loss in about 10%. A complete evaluation is necessary to make an accurate diagnosis and build the database to track your progress with photo, hair check,etc.....Sincerely,Bernardino Arocha, MD

Answer: Hair Transplant Planning for a Young Patient Most people destined for NW 7 would be far along in the baldness scale by their 20s. If you are going to consider a hair transplant, be sure you have prepared yourself for the prospect of requiring to do more sessions in the future to avoid ending up with an odd hair pattern. You also must have the financial and mental commitment to having additional hair transplants as time passes. Also, keep the hairline conservative and look into incorporating hairs from your beard and body from the beginning of the process.

Answer: Expectations for hair transplant of norwood class 6 or 7? It's smart to start addressing your hair loss early. There are options to help preserve your hair that were not available a generation ago. You should see a hair transplant surgeon and discuss options such as finasteride (Propecia), laser, minoxidil (Rogaine) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP). These can help prolong the life of your hair follicles, improve their function and even reverse early hair loss.
