It seems you got a hair transplant in an area where there was TON of native hair? It may grow back it may not, to be honest. Which doctor performed this?

Hey James,
Actually, there's quite a bit of asymmetrical thinning in the middle area (can see light going through the hair on the left side of the Mohawk hairstyle); my right temple is gone and my left temple have very thin hair that looks like it was going to go. The clinic told me only a small portion in the centre area have strong hair that will last long but the rest will probably fall off in maybe 2 years given the rate of my hair loss. So they recommended to dense up the middle as well, on top of the temples (not going for a full hairline restoration as I want to reserve hair for the crown and am looking for density).
I'm going to avoid posting doctor's name until final results come out so I can get an objective feedback from the community...hopefully you can provide me with some insight to my questions

Well, to be perfectly honest, my honest insight and experience will probably frighten you, but understand that I am NOT a doctor and I will only tell you my personal experience. I had hair with density similar to yours, except no receding. I got a small hair transplant of about 900 hairs in just one area, in the left hair line and towards the middle. Within 9 months, almost all my native hair was gone and still has not returned, and now it's two years later. Are you on finasteride and minoxidil? I hope so, that will give your hair a fighting shot at regrowth. I had almost a full head of hair before getting a transplant and it has completely ruined my hair. I am NOT trying to scare you, every one's case is different. I just know for fact when men with MPB experience a trauma that causes them to lose hair rapidly, there is a strong chance a lot of that hair may not regrow and if it does, not to it's previous full, terminal state.
