He wants to lower my whole hairline, instead of just temples, saying it will look unnatural with just temples done. The middle of my hairline isn't receding

He drew the area, but said I could raise it up in the middle if I wanted to, to avoid lowering the hairline as much

I don't want a botched hairline, which is my concern. As for shaving, he said I might be able to shave into the hairline a bit and leave the rest long to cover it, but would be better to shave it all

Quoted £4200

Wasn't expecting that tbh
It's just naturally high
I'll likely to do if I can avoid shaving it all, but I'll consult others first

Get on tretinoin if you're not already and consider some laser treatment

In the past I thought about hairline lowering, but it's not something I'd considered recently

But the surgeon said I have miniaturisation on the temples (actually said my right side was worse than my left, which I think it's the opposite), and said just doing temples would look unnatural. Idk about that, loads of people get it done

But I'll see what other clinics say
 
hairline looks good. Doctor gonna make it unnatural thats for sure

@SoundnVision thoughts?
 
Nigga how old are you? do you even have AGA?

Your hairline looks absolutely fine and you look too young to be getting a hair transplant.
If your hairline worsens you will have a big ass gap between your transplanted hairline and your natural one.

Just hop on fin and minox and consider a HT after 30-35 yo

Dude you should see my forehead lol.
I think you’re either brainwashed or retarded

Stick to those antidht and consider adding minox if you are losing hair.

Tbh, I don’t see androgenetic alopecia or hairloss. Hairline looks solid and hair in general too. Getting a hair transplant of 1000 grafts to get a 1cm lowered hairline in your situation seems really retarded and might impair future HT when really needed. But you do you eh

I agree kind of
I was looking into hairline lowering years ago but stopped
My temples are a bit weak, but the surgeon insists on touching the whole hairline

I think the surgeon is trying to rip off 4k from you. No normal surgeon, even in turkey, will accept to do such a shitty HT at 22.

You need a reality check fr my man, even if you are losing hair stick to the meds and consider it in 10 years. You haven’t even mentioned any AGA so you could be on some complete bullshit too

Wdym haven't mentioned AGA? I told you my temples are weak, they are miniaturised and sparse

The surgeon said this too, although he said the side I consider to be fine is worse than the side I consulted for

I could try minox, but a transplant is a one and done, and I have another sparse area that isn't AGA that I want a transplant for anyway, and could get temples in same procedure

Extreme case for reference but this is what happens when you do a HT too early / don’t stay on meds. You could risk you hairline receding (even while being on fin) and the having transplanted hairline detached from your natural receding one.

Again, hair looks normal to me so i would stock to the meds since it way too early to consider a HT. I would do one too if it wouldn’t be a stupid decision. DYOR tho

Yeah but I'm not stupid enough to get a transplant without being on meds

I'll up my dut dosage if I have to

Worst case, I recede a little, and I'll get another transplant to fill in the gap. Cos I'd have to get a transplant if I were to recede anyway, even without a transplant now
 
Would look good. Surgeon has a good eye.

My main concerns are:
- too sharp hairline corners. Would prefer a softer curvature. Can probably ask for that
- low density at the front below where my density is currently good
- having to shave the head, because I look much better with longer hair, and I don't want people to know about the transplant

How much is this gonna cost u
 
£4200
I'm gonna consult other clinics but will probably be similar
Why not just spend that on facial surgeries. Tbh that’s what I’d rather. And maybe just get a toupee or some shit

Because hair is life
I used to want facial surgeries but now I don't really care. But having a full head of hair is important

First isn’t exactly hard to avoid. Second surely saves itself over time; it will take a while though. And the shave is brutal indeed.

You have to simply weigh it up on your own scale. We will have varying perceived weights to each pro and con.

Wdym saves itself over time?
I'm concerned the density will look lower than my current hairline at the front if it's lowered, after the final result. I don't have any recession in the middle of my hairline, so touching that seems risky. The last thing I want to end up with is a fake or thin hairline

Wouldn't go to the uk for that money you could go to BHR clinic.

Once the hair is there, it usually begins to look super low density but over time as it roots properly it usually tends to blend in.

It's one of the top clinics in the world the uk doesn't have any. Nobody travels from other countries to the uk for a transplant.
Because it's not cheap
Hardly anyone travels anywhere that's not Turkey anyway

Alot travel to feriduni and bhr clinic in Belgium that's why they have such big waiting lists.
Plenty travel to the top ones in usa and they aren't cheap.
Nobody comes to the uk.
Only people who go to Turkey have no money and get average results or end up botched by a butcher.

You say that as though it's rare to go to Turkey
I wouldn't, but there's a reason people say something along the lines of "gotta go Turkey" when referring to someone norwooding. At least where I'm from. Yes some people are memeing but it's by far the most popular place to travel to for it

No I'm saying most people do go there, because they don't want to spend money and end up with average or shit results.
They don't call them hairmills for nothing.

But then there's the opposite extreme - overhyping expensive surgeons when many others can produce the same results. It's the same as how there were a few jaw surgeons constantly shilled on here

The best ones aren't over hyped you just got to look at all the forums to see people's results from them. You get what you pay for and hair isn't something to mess around with.

I also see great results from random Turkish surgeons

Also, Dr bisanga already said he doesn't operate under 24 in an email. I'm 22. That seems a little conservative given I'm on meds

Did you try Erdogan in turkey?
He's the only one I would go to there but he's not cheap ( for turkey ) but cheaper than places like BHR

No
But seen he's part of smile hair clinic, and happened to come across negative stuff earlier on Reddit about them

I'd rather stay here or somewhere closer tbh
