I Have Frizzy Hair and Think I’d Be a Good Candidate for Surgery

Male, 32. My hair has been thinning quite a bit in the front temple region and frontal area in general. Back region is fine. When I look at before and after pictures of hair transplants some I think…wow that is great….others I think I can’t believe he paid thousands of dollars for that. I have frizzy wavy hair and it doesn’t take much for it to look full with its color and texture.

My question is would it be possible for a surgeon to look and comb through my hair(which is pretty thin) now and see whether he thinks he may be able could duplicate this? I am happy with it now but much worse and I might consider HT. Its very thin but I’m happy with it now. I think I would have really good hair for a transplant because of the texture of my hair. Obviously there are other factors though.

Results do vary between patients (hair character, color, density) and surgeons (experience, technical staff), but if you have frizzy hair I’d believe you could have some full looking results. It’s not really possible at this stage to tell since I haven’t even seen you. Meet with a hair transplant doc and see what he/she thinks about your candidacy. Generally speaking though, people with wavy or curly hair will be able to achieve thicker looking results than a patient with fine hair.

Are you treating your hair loss right now? Propecia or even Rogaine could help to maintain the hair you’ve got now if you’re happy with that.
