Will probably be FUSS because a) FUE is friggin expensive and b) I want a high yield, and I hear that FUSS typically gives a higher yield.
Norwood 1.5diffuse, yada yada, you know my situation:

Crown thinning:

Basically my hairline center is about 2.5 inches right now, and I'd like to lower it about a third of an inch in the center, and close in the temples by moving the left one(the better one) down and in about a quarter of an inch, and the right one(the worse one) down and in about four tenths of an inch. And maybe put 100 grafts to fill in that crown as well.
How many grafts are we looking at? Also would it be possible to fill in the diffused area on top as well without shock loss?
This transplant would probably not happen for at least a year, because I'm going to give Avodart 8 more months to give it the full year, then probably give Rogaine 6 months, but I'm planning for the future. Docj and other knowledgeable posters on Bryan here say that by taking Avodart every day I am likely to get no worse than NW3, so depleting the donor area is probably not a concern. Avodart will also keep my sides and back nice and thick, because although these hairs are less sensitive to DHT than the hairs on top and in the front, they are still a bit sensitive so it is important to keep them thick.
Any comments appreciated. Also, I will only go to a TOP Doctor, ie someone like H&W or Armani. There are others but those are the two that I am familiar with. I'm not going to go to some local Doctor who will ruin my hair.
