This site is great, and I’ve learned a lot from it.
My question is – I am a young man (mid 20s) thinning in what appears to be evolving into a NW 7 pattern, given a family history of NW7’s, and I am taking finasteride.
Is it possible/advisable to get a conservative hair transplant with a Norwood Class 3 hairline? I have accepted the fact that I will lose my hair someday, but I would like some hair in the front/top to frame the face, would such a course of action be advisable?
I’m glad that you’ve found the site to be a useful resource.
You might be able to get to that Norwood 3 hairline through surgery, but what you need is a Master Plan that takes the following into consideration:
- Your hair density
- The thickness of the hair shaft
- The present color of your hair
- The character of your hair
- Your response to the drug finasteride
With that information and a great doctor, the question can be refined with an appropriate answer catered to your needs.
