I"m 25 and have a receding hairline. Interested inScalp advancement with hair transplant. Options? (photos)

rick03912Mar 18, 2022
I have a receding hairline and I'm 25. From what I can tell at this point a hair transplant would only get me to norwood 2, could I reasonably use a hair transplant in combination with a scalp advancement surgery to achieve norwood 1? I've read that scalp advancement surgery isn't a good idea for men with receding hairlines although i'm not sure why.
