What do you think of this plan for surgery? (photo)
I was quoted 3200 grafts- 2500 for hairline and 800 for crown and midscalp. Clinic told me it was a conservative estimate as I indicated I would still be on meds for another 5 months before doing the HT (been on fin / minox for the past 7 months). Do you think this is a fair estimate? I’m not hopeful of regrowing more hair from meds as progress from meds seems to be quite stagnant past the 5-month mark for me. Would appreciate your thoughts!
What is your age? If you are under 25, reconsider doing a hair transplant. It takes a year to see results from medications. 2500 grafts for the frontal hairline? As I can’t see your hairline, I would be just guessing that it seems high. The crown will likely reverse with finasteride and minoxidil, and certainly, if you add microneedling. You should get results in 9 months or less from this routine. You need to get a competent and hopefully honest surgeon and not blow your future on numbers that make no sense. You would likely lose all of the hair that is there now if there is any significant degree of miniaturization and if you don’t take finasteride.
