Where would you start?

I'm 26 years old. Diffuse thinning. Worse part of my thinning is in the vertex/crown area with moderate thinning in the front but I have for the most part kept my hair line. I'm looking into pulling the trigger on a Hair Transplant (FUE) this fall.

I would prefer to have the area worked on that is the thinnest first. That would be my crown/vertex reigon. The doctor I'm currently emailing back and fourth presented me with a drawing of doing my frontal area with 1600-1800 grafts. I feel like I will not be happy with my results from a graft in an area that isn't a concern of mine yet. I'd still be bald in the back and on top which I feel would make this a pointless surgery and I'd still be resorting to wearing the trusty baseball cap to conceal my balding. Who knows if I could even afford a new baseball cap after a surgery that would still leave me bald/balding. What suggestions do you have for me? I have uploaded my pictures and the pictures the doc gave me of the area he wants to work on. Thank you in advance.
