Would FUE Transplant Work For My Receding Hairline? Is it the right time ?

Based on the information you've given, this seems like a reasonable approach. I was in a similar situation when I got my hair transplant. 30 years old, receding hairline, good donor, relatively good genetics regarding hair loss, etc. With an in person consultation, you'll also be able to have the miniaturization levels of your hair tested to help predict any future loss and give you and the doctor a roadmap of sorts to help determine where you may be heading.

Make sure you do your research and you choose a surgeon with a proven track record who will help guide you to make the decision that is best for you. Meet with a few surgeons if possible and ask lots of questions.

It's promising as well that you seem to have a good head on your shoulders and reasonable expectations. This can be just as important as the surgery itself when it comes to measuring how happy you will be after the fact.

I think it would also be beneficial to you to consider Finasteride. If you're dead set against it, that's totally fine - just keep in mind that the reports of negative side effects are (in my opinion) over inflated and often can't even be traced back to the drug itself. It doesn't mean there aren't risks, as there are risks with any medication, ut they may not be as prominent as you've been lead to believe.

Best of luck with whatever you decide!
