Is my hair loss pattern stable enough for a FUE hair transplant? (photo)

Hi all, I am 24 years of age and first started noticing thinning hair at age 19-20, till gradually they reached a point where the center of my scalp has nearly dead hair. I cannot style them and they grow painfully slow. I have attached photos of my hair, 4 months after I shaved my head and you can see my sides have grown fine but the top is very thin. I consulted a board certified hair surgeon and he said I can proceed for a FUE procedure and would require 3500 grafts.
