Recent Transplant in 19 Year Old

I would like to get some information on hair loss. I’m 19 and lost my hair on the temples. It’s not that bad because I can cover it. It’s the only hair loss problem.I had hair transplants in that area done by Dr [name removed], 250 grafts on each side. it’s been 2 and a half month’s now,can’t see any results yet. also the Doctor prescribed propecia for me but he say’s it only stops the hair loss in the crown area and there my hair is full and is in my family as well!!! I have been taking it for 5 months now and am not sure if should continue taking it!!! What would you recommend? I don’t want to lose anymore hair and also after I see the results from the transplant I had and want to still fix my hairline I really like what you are offering!! Please email me on your suggestions!! Thank you

If it has only been a few months since the transplant, you must wait this out. I suspect that you had 250 grafts in each corner, similar to a Norwood Class 3 pattern. The full benefit of Propecia will take 8-12 months, and the transplant should show 80% of the benefit in 8 months. Keep on the course you have started and do not stop the Propecia.

I am concerned that you had a transplant at the age of 19. If you are in Los Angeles, please come by and introduce yourself for a second opinion. You need to have your scalp hair mapped out for miniaturization and you need a Master Plan in hand, particularly now that you already started the process.
