I Don’t Want a Mature Hairline!

Im 23, and know I have lost hair. My hair used to be really thick, and I have lost hair diffusely, at crown, and temples. 2 Derms I went to said it was simply a mature hairline. I dont want a mature hairline, I will not feel stupid being 30 with a teenage hairline. The derm said that I can try propecia if I want to. My mom and uncle have both mentioned my hair looks thinner. Im unsure what to do.

There are men that do not ‘grow up’ from a hair line perspective, so you can get reconstructive hair transplant surgery to bring back that old child-like hairline. While it is respectable that you do not want a mature hair line, it is something most hair transplant doctors do not treat, but something that I would be willing to do in a 30 year old who met certain criteria. The criteria would be:

1. that the predictable hair loss pattern will not be advanced
2. that your supply of donor hair will be enough to meet your needs on a worst case scenario
3. that the various elements of your hair characteristics meet my criteria
4. that you understand what is the worst case scenario for progressive hair loss and have a plan worked out with me to deal with it
5. that you are mature and of sound mind and body
6. that you have the finances to follow a worst case scenario through if it happened
7. that you can tolerate and are willing to take Propecia for the rest of your life

Currently there is no data that shows finasteride (Propecia) will stop the progression to a mature hair line. Propecia can only be prescribed by a medical doctor and it is important to establish a correct diagnosis before you start any medication.
