I’m 24 and had 4500 FUE grafts, what do you think of my decision to do this? (photo)

I will be frank and honest. I think that you did not need 4,500 FUE grafts. I think 1,800 or so would have been adequate provided you were on the drug Finasteride to help stop the progression of hair loss and prevent shock loss from happening. Your age put you on the marginal edge of a hair transplant and it is possible that you might have reversed the balding just with the drug. What is even more disturbing is that 4,500 grafts taken from your donor area will deplete your donor area possibly enough to impact hair needs in the future. The rush to hair transplants are the fault of both you (who my not have gotten second opinion) and the doctor’s need to make money (at your expense). The doctor clearly put hair where you were not losing it and that is poor ethics.
