I am 22 years old male with aggressive hair loss. I have been using propecia since I was 17 but the hair loss has not stabilised. I got a transplant at a reputable clinic in the local area. 1500 grafts were implanted. All the men in my family are NW6. I was told that I could use 10,000 scalp grafts and 6-8 thousand beard grafts. Since then I have been told that this is not a viable option. Right now my new hairline is at 5 cm. What are my choices? Was this ethical abuse?

Answer: Low Hairline I usually plan a much more conservative hairline for patients with any young patient who has the following:Family pattern of advance class of hair lossSignificant scalp hair miniaturization in a large area of scalpMy hairline designs may have been more generous in recent years. That is thanks to the advancements in bears to scalp hair transplant as it present a new reserve of hair for some patients. You need to be evaluated with full face pictures to see what options you have in the future.

Answer: 22 year old At 22, I would not consider you a candidate for a hair transplant because your final hair loss pattern will not have evolved. I generally wait until a patient is at least 25 before recommending a hair transplant and would often try medications first to try to stop it or reverse it. 10,000 grafts from a donor area is a high number of grafts that requires a very high donor density to be present; however, since you started the process, you should slow down and wait for the transplant to grow out, Consider getting another opinion. Below is a picture of a young man on the drug finasteride with a complete reversal of his balding. Even at this stage, you might consider this
