Considering hair transplant - Estimation Of Grafts/long Term Strategy

[investor]

Hi All,

This is my first post here, so grateful to have a forum to seek advice.

I'm 36 y/o and have been experiencing hair loss for 10+ years. I have been shopping around and sending pics for online consultations (principally in Turkey for the cost benefits - I live in Europe). I am aiming to get a hair transplant to increase overall coverage, but with the knowledge that as per my family's genetics I will need another hair transplant in the future, unless Finasteride works like a charm for me.

What is your guys' advice and observations? I have attached pics.

Many thanks in advance.

Investor.

I would look a FUT for your first transplant just because the donor area isn't great. 4-5k grafts would make a big difference, although it will still be thin.

Hi Murkey,

Thanks for the reply. Why do you think I should go for FUT over FUE? Consensus seems to lean toward FUE, though I must admit I'm learning with regard to this topic as I go.
