This has always been something I have been confused about and apologies in advance if this seems like a dumb question but I am an aggressive balder and see multiple hair transplants in my future
Anyway...with regard to donor area. What i've never understood is the whole "getting a hair transplant too young and not having enough donor hair left for future procedures" argument. Once the hair is removed from the back to the top, why does the donor zone diminish? Doesn't that hair (on the back and sides) grow back right where it was once it heals following a procedure? Clearly I misunderstand this...maybe it has something to do with scar tissue? Idk...either way all clarity is appreciated...
My father didn't lose hair until early 40s but is Norwood 4.5 - 5 now and my grandfather (maternal) is full blown NW7 and his hair was gone by 30. Paternal grandfather had hair till he died and no blood uncles for comparison. I started losing at 20 and am NW2.5 to 3 now (age 22) so looking like a NW7 is in my future...
Cheers
