I am almost 27 years old and currently a Norwood 2 maybe even a Norwood 2.5-2.75. My hair loss has been slow but steady for the past 8 or so years (you can see my earlier posts in my posting history). Pretty much all my hair loss so far has been in my temple regions. I have been hesitant to get on finasteride...

Maybe I'm nitpicking here, but my hairline is naturally pretty low with very prominent temple points, so even a little bit of recession completely changes the way my face is framed. I think it would make a big difference but then again maybe I perceive it to be worse than it actually is.

I'll probably post some pictures soon but I definitely have some hair loss. I'm already using all that for my skin but still having some problems + genetic under eye bags. How effective is dermarolling on its own?

Most of the males in my family seem to level out at NW3. My dad for example has a NW2.5, at worst NW3, which I think is great for his age. I do have a few relatives though who are NW4/5, mostly on my dad's side. What gave me the idea of going back to a NW1 is when I saw the results obtained...

Anyone know roughly how much it would cost to go from a Norwood 2 to a Norwood 1 or even a Norwood 0? For reference I am in my mid 20's and have been losing hair since I was 19. I have a few family members who have lost hair but none are past a Norwood 5 to my knowledge, and the ones who have made it that far are...

Yeah haha, which is why I was curious if anyone has seen some nice results

I noticed many of the good results reported here are near the crown or with diffuse thinners. How have people responded on their temples?

What do you mean by your expectations were too high? What parts of the procedure were underwhelming?

Sorry for all the questions but since we're in a similar spot I figured I'd ask. How were the results and how many grafts did you use? What was the cost and was it FUE or FUT? What Norwood were you before and how about after?

What are you currently on?

I am very self conscious about it and I would say I do have self esteem issues. My hairline is starting to get to the point where it's becoming noticeable even when I do style it, no one has pointed it out yet but it's pretty obvious in pictures I think.

Yeah that is my biggest concern, shelling out all that money and then losing more hair behind it. Yeah I'm in my mid 20's. I will most likely post a thread soon showing the current state of my hairline, I have some old pictures in my post history though. From what I know, no one in my family is...

Pretty much the title. I have a NW2, 2.5 at worst. I've also begun noticing some density going on the top of my head, mostly near the front of my hairline. I'm hesitant to try finasteride due to sides and have begun considering a hair transplant to go back to a NW1. Would this be a bad idea? Would top...

Is it pretty much guaranteed to look bad since more hair will eventually thin behind the transplant?

Wow finally! This is amazing, what phase trials? So is this in the trial phase at all or still in the early stages? Sounds like the latter.
