I'm scared. What if I made a mistake? I did a hair transplant at 26 (Photo)

AmarD90
I did a hair transplant 3 weeks ago in Istanbul. I had 3200 grafts done. I've been doing research for over a year and I know that most doctors don't recommend doing a hair transplant if you are under 30. But what's the point in doing it when you are already bald? What if I go even balder and have bald patches? What do I do then? I'm just scared that I made a mistake. Has anyone else done a hair transplant at this age? What happened later? Here are the results after 3 weeks.
