2 years apart

This is two pictures taken 2 years apart.

It is now 1 year and 9 months since my hairtransplant.

I have to remind myself how it was before. Nowadays people compliments my hair and so on. Before the HT, for over ten years I was feeling ugly and insecure. Now, I just feel great 🙂

Should I get a hair transplant? What are my options?

Hi all,

I’m 24F and have had this hairline my whole life. It doesn’t help that my forehead is HUGE.

People often think it’s some sort of hairloss but I can assure you, this has been my hairline my whole life. The bun is only for the photo (my hair is 90% of the time low plait/ pony with a parting)

What are the factors to consider before deciding doctor or clinic?

Like the title says, i think this is the year i would want to get HT. I am thinking about it for an year. Started taking HIMS last month and hoping to have surgery scheduled by year end. I live in USA and would like to find good doctor with all inclusive package if travelling abroad. I am seeking feedback on what factors did you all take into account before deciding on the doctor besides cost and logistics? What are some details one should be aware of before consulting surgeons to make informed decision? Thanks!

Mid 30s, any chance?

Currently on nothing, this is 1.5 days of grow from clean shaven. Ignore the redness I was wearing a headset just before.

23M - Considering HT: How many grafts are needed?

Hello Everyone,

I'm dealing with rapid hairloss from the last one year and mentally drained to see my hairline go up so quick.
I wish to have the desired hairline as shown in picture (opting a conservative HT)..... How many grafts are needed for that Hairline reconstruction.
Please help me.... Some Hair Mills are saying I need 2000-2500 grafts is it true?

Thanks in Advance!!

Hair transplant options

Hello, came to the conclusion Finn/minn isn’t working for me. 28M and have been struggling with hair loss around the crown since mid 20s. It is strong everywhere else, just losing it in the back. Tried SMP tattoo hair or whatever it was called, made it blend more but obviously not good.

Looking at places in Columbia, MX but no direct recommendations. Does anyone have a spot they recommend? Prefer to get out of the US for pricing, but also willing to pay for quality work. If possible, wouldn’t want to travel as far to turkey.

Need help quickly

Hey, i’m currentely in turkey doing a HT. I’m 22, low NW 3, and i agreed with the surgeon with a hairline. We have done day 1, but the result on one of my first temple is not to my taste ( hairline way to high for my age i think) . Can i bring that issue up tomorrow, or will it be seen as a fuckass move?

Thx in advance

So many choices it’s overwhelming.

Looking to finally take the leap. Have been a lurker here for a while and it seems everyone has a real story. Long, single session, multiple sessions, Turkey, Mexico, etc. I’m overwhelmed and just need help. Thoughts on grafts and recommendations on the right doctor. Price is not a huge factor though I will take it into consideration. Thanks in advance!

HT in two weeks : 1000 grafts.

What do you think ? 1000 grafts seems OK ?

Doing it at Maison Lutetia in Paris : 6900€

PS : ChatGPT told me before I met them that 1000-1100 grafts was what I needed and that more isn't necesseraly better. So when they told me 1000 grafts, that seemed alright to me. What do you guys think ?

Scarred or just the ugly duckling?

Had a nasty infection on the first week that was pretty much cleared by the end of the second week (shown in the photo).

Now on the 3,5 months mark and I have this bare spot in the area, is that scarred or just delayed? Did anyone have anything similar? Any hope that it will improve?

All pictures were taken with flash so the contrasts are a bit harsher than in reality.

Considering HT

Hi everyone,

I’m considering a hair transplant and wanted to ask for your opinion.

Based on my current hair loss, what do you think my chances are for a good result? Also, roughly how many grafts do you think I might need?

Ive recently started with fin 1mg and topical minoxidil.

Uneven density?

Hello I feel like one side of my hair transplant is either really behind or has significantly less density. Does my progress/post op look normal? About four months post op

u/Right_Entrance_6192 — 19 hours ago

I am 26 years old about to be 27 in a weeks Just had my first hair transplant done let me know what you can think and pointers!

Unsymmetrical hairline.

Just got a hair transplant and the doctor says this is intentional. He said he will make it unsymmetrical from this one side to the other, but I feel like they're so different. Will this change the end result? I feel bad and I feel like he made me get a huge widow's peak. Any idea what is the solution for this? Do I need another hair transplant?

Should I get the HT?

I’m 21 turning 22. I just hopped on fin last month. I’ve been using topical minoxidil for a few years now but that obviously hasn’t done me any good without blocking any DHT.

Skeptical: Specialist said he'd need a max of 1800 grafts to fill in my crown AND lower my hairline to a feminine shape (gender transition). Is that really enough?

Instead of the standard male hairline restoration, I actually want the temples completely rounded down to look as feminine as possible (MtF transition)

My temples have always been rather high, so I don't think my hairline has actually receded that much (maybe some thinning at the front). It's mostly my crown that's lost a lot of hair.

The specialist, a reputable hair surgeon in Belgium, Europe, said that more than 1800 grafts would be overkill and wouldn't help (and outcompete each other) but the number feels low if I considered the amount of surface to be filled.

In all other aspects, the consultation made me feel confident in his skills and consistency (including female hairlines), but that number makes me doubt, and wonder if I should get a consultation elsewhere (and have to pay again for that)

I'm 30 years old, I've been on dutasteride for a year and my loss has stabilised, but I'd rather not use minoxidil for multiple reasons, so if I can get my desired result with only a transplant and dutasteride maintenance, that'd be ideal.

Thank you for reading :)
