Am I a candidate for a hair transplant? (photo)
How do I go about finding out if I am a candidate?
You will likely develop into a full Class 7 pattern of balding which I see is almost there now. These sides will become lower, either quickly after the hair transplant or sometime in the near future. Finasteride may slow that process down. Good doctors routinely perform trichoscopy to rule out diseases in the donor area and establish the metrics that I am about to discuss. It would be best to have your lifetime donor supply of grafts ascertained, including (1) donor density and (2) hair shaft thickness of the donor hairs. This will tell the surgeon what you will look like after the hair transplant, which should be shared with you. Not all grafts are equal; for example, coarse hair has 10 times the value of very fine hair (cosmetic-wise). Hair transplant science is well-established today.
