Hi , I'm 24 with hair lose since 17 or 18. Now I think it is stabilised but I am not sure if it is because I don't feel I lose such quantity of hair because i wear it short nowadays. I am on finasteride 1 mg/24h and minoxidil 5% /12h. Can I be a candidate for a FUE to reconstruct the frontal area and/or give density to the crown or should I wait? I feel I want to do it now cause it is a good time for me to do it but I am concerned bout the consequences of the progresing hair loose. Thank you.
