Am I a good transplant candidate at 21? (photos)

You appear to be a good candidate, assuming that you have already tried some of the other non-surgical treatments and that they have failed. Do you have miniaturization on your scalp beyond the hairline area? Ask your surgeon about your baseline donor density and hair mass (donor hair thickness). These two factors will allow you and your surgeon to predict how you will manage if you continue to lose more hair (likely). If your surgeon can’t answer these questions, could you find another surgeon who will? You must remember that the surgeon works for you, and as such, in a job interview (you being the interviewer), you need to ask the right questions and expect reasonable answers. If the surgeon gets upset with your questioning why he is offering you surgery, then get the hell out of there because you shouldn’t want to hire such a doctor.  If you only meet with a salesman or saleslady, then run for the hills. 

FYI: Juvenile hairlines are not uncommon. In Caucasians, they are less than 5% (e.g., Bill Clinton), while in India, they may reflect 25% of the male population. My Grandfather died at 102 with his 5-year-old hairline and black hair (no gray).
