I’m 34 and have frontal diffuse thinning since my late 20’s. I'm on 1mg Fin for a year, with no sides. No regrowth, but I feel my scalp is healthier. I'm considering a HT. My goal is to restore density. I met a doc who is part of the IAHRS; he advises against FUE for a first time HT even though he does it and has ARTAS. Says a 2000 graft FUT to restore my hairline and some density. Is that too much or too less? I am also worried about the linear scar, stretching, and permanent shockless, etc.

You don't appear to be anywhere in need of a hair transplant. You're too young and hair loss is not significant enough.
I recommend simply continuing with periodic PRP treatment or try exosomes for a more robust response.

Its safe to have a keto diet after a hair transplant. Ultimately we don't just want to give a youthful appearance we also want their to actually be restored healthy lifestyle to match it.
It is not recommended that you take any nicotine following any type of surgical procedure because it restricts the blood flow. Good blood flow is very important during the healing process and also for the success rate of the grafts.
