I'm thinking of having a hair transplant and am concerned that the hair will eventually recede behind a hair transplant making it look ridiculous - is this true?

It can happened, thats why young guys that are strong into a hair loss progression should be more careful. If you are in your late 20's and you take Propecia/Minoxidil/Avodart there is a big chance that you will be able to maintain your existing hairs. If you are not on any hair loss medications yet, i will strongly advise you to start now if you are looking into hair transplant solution.
How old are you?

I'm 30 and a Norwood 2/3. The only problem is that I can't take propecia or proscar due to side effects. Does this rule me out of having a transplant

Many thanks
Martyn

If you can't take the pills, minoxidil may be a good choice to maintain some hair...possibly saw palmetto as well.

HA! Apparently Damo, you and I have been termed "know it alls!" Sorry, I didn't mean to steal anyone's thunder...

I'm getting depression - it literally started and stopped exactly when I was taking the medication

Hi there newly balding, you can add proscar to your minoxidil, too, which might be worth a shot, less or no sides & far more localized effect (I do both!)

I have always said that the preffered solution is to shave your head. Unfortunatelly many guys doesn't look good with that look (me included).
You need a very small reounded head to look good with copmplete shaved head...if you have a high forehead or long face you will look like a freak.

How many years we will take these drugs prior to transplant?

forhair · by **forhair** » Mon Jul 23, 2012 5:11 am

As long as you want to maintain your hair without a loss.

Sad, but true. I, too, can't pull off a shaved look. I have a brow ridge like a caveman, and the back of my head is kind of flat!

Oh why oh why...

charcher, that is how god created us and we should be grateful for what we are...i am sure you have other qualities, no one is perfect.
I believe in solutions, i think that if something bothers you about your appearance you need to solve it (if it's possible). My solution was FUE, and i am glad i did it. No one will ever convince me that it was a wrong decision...it has saved my confidence and self esteem.
