The photos speak for themselves

Hairline lowering procedures come in two types (1) a hairline advancement surgery (a good surgery for women but generally not men) and (2) a hairline lowering hair transplant surgery. When women have corner recession as many men do, then a hairline advancement surgery is not as good as a hair transplant lowering surgery. As this surgery could leave a scar in the front of the hairline, men who recede shouldn’t have it because their hairline could go back and leave the scar exposed requiring a hair transplant to cover it. Be careful, as some surgeon promote what they know not what may be good for you. Here are some examples of a hair transplant hairline lowering surgery:

I have been reading and seeing some SMP done on bald/balding men. So it is basically a hair tattoo. To be honest, in my opinion, it doesn´t look that different than a bald head. It says that it should resemble a buzzcut, or a really short hairstyle visually. But it sounds like some bullshit too me. It is also pretty expensive. For that price, I would rather pay a little more and get a hair transplant in the future when I get older. Have any of you heard about it/try it? What is your opinions? :)

SMP is a good solution for some people who can accept a shaved head for rest of their life, but for others, not as good a choice as a hair transplant. Of course, you can start with SMP and if you decide at some point in the future to get a hair transplant , that is an option. The best thing about SMP (a name we coined and published) is that you don’t have to worry about progressive balding. If you get a hair transplant when you have a Class 3 pattern and then progress to a Class 6 pattern, with SMP, you don’t have to do it again while with a hair transplant, you will have to transplant the new bald areas.

SMP is also a great solution for people with thinning hair as it makes it look fuller because the contrast between skin and hair color can be made closer to each other

My dad is 55 and is still a NW2 with good density, but unfortunately I don’t think I got his hair genes. Looking at my maternal grandfathers pictures I have a really similar hairline to him and the same big forehead. He said he didn’t start losing hair until 40 and was a nw7 around 60. However I think he started earlier than 40 he just didn’t really notice it getting bad until then. I was an NW2 at 20 and have been on fin since then (am 23 now) and am still an NW2, but my overall density has thinned a little bit. Do people usually follow an exact pattern as certain people in their family or is it sometimes a combination of multiple people?

Many men who are balding can find someone in their family line that have a balding pattern and rate of balding that they can identify with.

I would like to have a HT in the future when my diffuse thinning on top gets really bad, but I don’t know if I have DUPA, is it possible to see from photos from my iphone?

To make the diagnosis, buy a hand microscope from Amazon ($30 range) and then get photos like these from your donor area: https://baldingblog.com/do-i-have-dupa-photo/

What is the probability of shock loss when getting a transplant without fin? Are some people able to get transplants without it?

So it’s just fin and minoxidil foam. And I miss a lot of days with the foam. More than I should. I’ve only missed a few days of fin, so I think the fin is mostly responsible.

Clearly a good responder for finasteride
