Hi! Im 23 yrs old and for the last 3+ yrs, Ive had two identical small hair lost spots on either side of my hairline, just above where my sideburn hairs begin. I believe its due to permanent traction alopecia, Ive tried oils and all that sort of thing. Will a micro hair transplant be good for someone like me?
I was wondering about starting oral finasteride after my hair transplant as Ive never taken it before. I have had two hair transplants. I want to know will starting oral finasteride after my surgery make my implants fall out as my surgery is next month in October. I currently take 5mg of minoxidil and topical dustasride.
I've decided to undergo an FUE hair transplant, but I can't afford a highly experienced doctor just yet. I'm currently weighing two discounted options that I've been offered: 1. A clinic with a doctor who recently transitioned from Emergency Medicine to hair transplants. She completed her training in February 2025, and the procedure would be supervised by an experienced, well-reviewed hair transplant doctor. 2. A clinic with an experienced nurse who has 15 years of expertise in hair transplants, is recommended by Artas, and is well-known for her work across Canada. The procedure would be overseen by a doctor with about 2 years of experience in hair transplants. Given your expertise, which option would you recommend? Is there significant risk in choosing a doctor who is new to hair transplants or working with someone who isn't a doctor but has extensive experience in the field? Are there other factors I should consider before making my decision? Or would it be wiser to save up for a more experienced doctor with a great reputation?
Hello, Im a 26 year old Latino/Hispanic male of Spanish and Native American descent. I have very thick hair which Im grateful for, but I have a prominent widows peak. My hairline is shaped like an M and has been this way since my late teens. I have been doing research on hair transplants for years but I havent seen anything on individuals who are getting their hairline cosmetically enhanced without any hair loss. I really want to get this done because I always wear my hair down and cover my hairline because of how far the temples go back. Also worth mentioning that Ive been on fin/min before and it gave me ED and heart palpitations, so Im not sure if I want to try it again.
27 year old male whos been dealing with hair loss/thinning since 18. On 2.5mg finasteride daily since I was 22. Main issue is the thinning I have on the top of my head and I'm debating on if I want to go to turkey for a hair transplant but want insight to see if it's even necessary right now and if I'm a good candidate? And if so, how many grafts would be needed? attached images of my hair freshly shampooed and some with oily hair & in the light. Let me know, thank you!
I've always had a high forehead and it's been an insecurity of mine, but over the past 10 years or so (right around the time I began graduate school) I've noticed my hairline has been gradually receding. I don't have much hair loss anywhere else on my head and my hair is very thick, especially in the back and on the sides. Male pattern baldness runs in my family and my dad has a very high forehead, too. Would I be a candidate for either treatment? Thank you! (1st pic is recent, 2nd was at 22yo)
I am 8 months post op a hair transplant done in the US by a reputable surgeon that specializes in textured hair (for context my hair is tightly coiled 4c). I have a few concerning areas for growth and density but one area in particular is my frontal scalp barely having any hair in this area. I know Im supposed to wait until I hit the 12 month mark before I fully worry but I have a hard time believing hair will just appear in this area out of nowhere. Im not sure if it looks that way because of the way coily hair grows but I doubt it. If thats actually the case Im worried the grafts did not survive and Im going to need a second procedure. The area looks super shiny to me under bright light. When I comb out the whole area it looks less concerning but when I part the hair to examine it, it looks extremely concerning.
Hi Hope you all have a wonderful day, So I just had my hair transplant 10 months ago, and after every shower, I spray my hair with two phase keratin conditioner and I dont rinse it and it stays in my hair to keep it soft ( thats how product is supposed to be used). I wonder if this product would harm my transplanted hair and Im worried can I continue using it safely ? Thank you so much
Please see the attached photos. Im aware that Im a tough case. Wondering where I fall on the Norwood scale? How successful a transplant would be (including using beard hair)? Do I exhibit any signs of problematic recession such as retrograde? Thank you!
