    My advice would be to wait and not touch those temporal lobe areas yet. Wait until you see some recessionary pattern develop.

    I know that's not probably not what you want to hear but you don't want to risk those areas opening up with full blown loss once you begin to traumatize them with recipient incisions.

    Of course some surgeons will tell you that I am all wet and don't know what I am talking about yet I am the one who hears from the guys who makes these mistakes and nearly 100% of them tell me afterward, "I should have waited".

    If you were at least into the Norwood 3 category, then sure, surgery makes more sense by election.

    If you decide to move forward anyway, then you and only you must do the homework and research to choose the doctor that you feel has your best interest at hand, has the right talent and results, and just will not take a burger and fry order. Plenty of them around. And everybody has a different opinion as to who does the best work.

    There are plenty of ethical, talented surgeons within this community and many of them preview their work with photos.

    One last thing. If you do move forward, consider FUE only. It would be crazy to do a strip procedure for such a small area and if you have minimal levels of hair loss in your lifetime, FUE is the way to go hands down...
