Without an examination, I can’t tell you whether you are a candidate for transplantation or not. You should have your scalp mapped for miniaturization, which will help determine how advanced your hair loss pattern will get. For example, you wouldn’t want to rush into a surgery at 22 years old only to lose more hair […]

Without seeing you right up close and mapping out your hair for miniaturization, I really can not render an opinion. I have seem many men who are afraid of their family balding pattern, fearful that it may hit them. Some, obsess over it and want to jump into the hair transplant process way too early […]
It’s really hard to tell if what you’re asking for is even possible for you. So yes, please send extensive pictures (and reference this post). If you have adequate density and are becoming a Norwood Class 7, you will need a careful analysis of the various Master Plans with a transplant. This is far too […]
Assuming that you have the balding gene and a HairDX finasteride response test indicates that you have an average sensitivity to Propecia, then I would expect that you, like many other men, had their hair loss stabilized on the drug. If that is the case, then you can assume that you may very well lose […]
You aren’t the first person to use the analogy comparing hair loss to death. For many men, their hair is part of their identity. As for being able to tell whether your hair loss will stop, well, this is what I’ve been referring to as miniaturization mapping. You use a microscope to examine your scalp… […]
You should dissect each element of their EXT approach: Cleansers on the scalp do not do much Lasers, in my opinion do not work Lotions that contain minoxidil work just like minoxidil without the packaging Scalp massage feels good but doesn’t grow hair Finasteride works well Vitamins have limited value in a person who is […]
I am not sure what you mean by a natural radial inclination. The only place where one has hair that points in a radial type of direction is the crown or vertex area. If this is the case you need to have a Master Plan of what you want accomplished with hair restoration surgery. If […]
You need an experienced doctor, not a salesman, to tell you what your density is and what your reserves are like. This conforms to the Master Plan I continuously talk about. Depleting the donor supply can occur with 2000 grafts, so you must be confident that your doctor levels with your and it honest about […]
You need to find a good, caring doctor to sit down with you after a thorough examination of your scalp and give you a Master Plan to work with. I couldn’t tell you if you’re a candidate for a hair transplant without at least seeing you… but even if your balding is as advanced as […]
I do not have numeric data for you. Instead of focusing on statistics, try to understand the big picture. If I tell you that 1 percent will have no results, and you happen to be that 1%, it is 100% for you (in your particular case). My main point was that everybody is different and […]
I really don’t have a clue as to the size of your recipient area for those 1464 hairs. Assuming that it was 1464 hairs (not grafts), that means that the strip taken should not have been very large (in surface area, that is). The normal person has 1250 hairs (or 625 two-hair grafts) per square […]
While the genetic testing for male pattern hair loss is novel, you don’t need a genetic test to be diagnosed with genetic male pattern baldness. A good physician can give you a diagnosis and a recommendation for treatment plan. I do not know the relationship between diffuse unpatterned alopecia (DUPA) and classic genetic hair loss. […]
There is no magic cure. Propecia works, but for some men it means “slowing” the hair loss process. It generally works better on men under 30 years old in my experience, but some men under 30 don’t get benefits that are easy to see. This is sometime very difficult to follow or take a good […]
Great question! The treatment of male pattern baldness with drugs and possible transplants requires a good Master Plan with your doctor. The Master Plan will balance the eventual worst case scenario for your balding pattern (only 7% of men go all the way to a Norwood Class 7 pattern — see illustration at right), the […]
Although you gave me a great deal of information, I can not judge you enough without seeing you to tell you what I think. Generally, at 35 years old, some miniaturization will show up in the future balding area by now. Most Norwood Class 7 patients have their hair loss pattern complete by the age […]
