what's classed as aggressive recession?

[Stephen788]

Hi, I just wanted to know what you guys class as aggressive recession. I was a Norwood 2-3 (I have since had a transplant) and it's took 4-5 years to get like it. Would you say that is aggressive or normal? I am 23 and often here that recession from an early age is aggressive, more so then speed. Is that right?

Edit: I wasn't on the big 3 in those years either.

I'm 26 now. I was still a norwood 1 at 22, then around the ages of 23/24 I receded fast to norwood 3 maybe 4. I was near "just shave it bro". I've responded well to treatments but probably going to start looking into getting a transplant to recover my hairline.

One with a full beard and a NW3-4 is an aggressive loser??

transplants make it difficult for other things to work

I actually went for a consultation with a hair transplant surgeon. He told me: no, that I wasn't ready for it.
