FUE decision 5 - 10 - 15 years post op

[juul1337]

Hi guys, let me quickly introduce myself. I am a 30 year old male experiencing hair loss in the temple region. Fortunately I am able to cover it up with my hair style and my slightly curly hair. However, I'd like to be able to rock some different hairstyles and therefore am considering to get the temples filled. I have visited dr Feriduni who pictured me as a perfect FUE candidate: loads of donor hair of a high quality. Also I think my hair loss has stabalized since a while now. I sort of have the same hairline as my 67 year old father. Results that dr Feriduni has shown me of similar cases are impressive. However, I am having difficulties pulling the trigger for mainly one reason I hope you guys can shed some light on:

I am never seeing stories of how FUE hair transplants look in 5, 10 or 15 years. The transplanted hairs are permanent right? So basically I am committing for LIFE. It is natural that the rest of your hair can thin out over the years, will the transplanted hair thin naturally with the rest of the hairs as well (assuming there is not complete new balding, just thinning). If not, this will give a strange look.

Is it common that one has only one HT over the course of his life, or will you need to follow up every 5 or 10 years to correct? Of course no-one can predict future hair loss, but I am really scared about the long term. I do not want a shortterm nice look which will look aweful in the future. I'd love to hear your perspective on this.
