Is a Hair Transplant ok at Age 23? (Finasteride 1.5 years, PRP ~2 years, Minoxidil 3 years, LLT 2.5 years, DHT blocking shampoo

I'm currently 23. I've tried nearly everything to regrow my hairline, but all they've done is maintain existing hair. I've read many responses advising people in their early 20s to wait many years until they lose a lot of hair so they can determine the balding pattern. However, for individuals who have 1) already taken medication for years to stabilize & prevent future loss and 2) are willing to continue taking medication to prevent future loss, is it fine to have a hair transplant at age 23
