I have been on finasteride for 1.5 years now and it has done nothing for my hairline. Has helped maintain the crown, middle section very nicely. Dont expect finasteride to work at the hairline, its the one area where a hair transplant is the only hope. Sorry if I sound glum, but just wanted to tell the truth.
Thanks metalhead. I am not sure I want that kind of hair transplant, its a bit overdone. Kind of like a guy who broadcasts the news. Its just not natural enough compared to what I had 2,3 years ago. I'll bring a photo to the doctor on the day of hair transplant.
I think the guy from H and W quoted 1500-1800 because I showed him a photo of me years ago with a full hairline and a naturally high hairline. I certainly dont want to go lower than my natural high hairline because I think it fits my features better.
Guys, I have something I didnt tell you all. This past December I had a consult at the Seattle Hasson and Wong office. I was quoted 1500-1800 grafts. I however feel more comfortable with a talk with one of the doctors themselves so therefore I will take a trip up to Vancovuer. I've been very...
My appointment with Dr. Wong is in 2 weeks. I will let you guys know how many grafts to be happy. It might help as a reference for someone else with similar hairline loss.
I've been having serious hairline issues the last 2 years. I have given up the fight and have decided to go for a hair transplant. I dont have the funds to pay for it all and will be paying monthly on a credit cards. Yeah, that parts hurts a ton. :sobbing:
Anyway, I am just 100% sick of my...
I'm in the same position. Been on propecia for 1.5 years. It has helped in the vertex and middle of the head but the hairline is just not responding. I have come to the conclusion that a hair transplant is needed to get it back. I am going to Hansson and Wong.
I dont know if this is just weird timing or whether saw palmetto actually caused my hairline to go away.
I've always had a fair hairline but not enough for others to say anything. Maybe I was just too picky and wanted to look like a movie star. So I went on saw palmetto for a couple of months...
