You're going to need multipul procedures at around 2k graphs each. I would go FUT and one last procedure for scar repair. In a about half a decade you may be where you want to be. IMHO

lol why 5 years to be ok? in two it can be achieved too, and dont go fut, go fue find a surgeon that does many grafts and do it 2 max 3 times , it is achievable i believe

Lol? It's achievable you believe? So this is funny and you're not sure. I've had more than one FUT and I couldn't be happier with my results. Based on the before/after pics from this site and others there is no way I could of achieved my results on FUE alone.

Morpheus,

You are definitely headed for a Norwood 6 class and even possibly Norwood 7 in the distant future.

It really depends how much crown work that you might be considering. If you leave the crown alone and focus on the frontal third, then 4 - 5,000 grafts would potentially get your frontal zone into the midscalp with decent coverage.

Although your crown is pretty much gone, you can potentially prevent it from spreading out into a larger balding zone with low dose finasteride.
