Balding Male Model with Weak Donor area

[BMFR]

I was intending on getting fue with erdogan next year but after having a look at some photos I’m pretty sure my donor area is too weak. This is disheartening as ****... I’m a male model (worked for Gucci, Dior, Burberry to name a few) and my hair loss is gonna mean I’ll have to stop modelling which ****ing sucks. I’m losing my hair with no results from propecia and and keto. A transplant was the one thing keeping me going. Actually sucks so much dick. Anyway, your opinions on the matter would be most appreciated.

Donor looks very normal, pretty sure others will say the name.

Man you haven’t seen it when it’s wet

Thank you for your response though

Anyone tell me if I’d be suitable for a transplant? I only wanna fill out my hairline - maybe 2000 grafts or there abouts. Obviously worried about my donor area. Can provide more pics if needs be

I wouldn't get a transplant, just in your case. The reason is you have a very thin neck.

It will definitely show (the places you transplant from). Hate to say it, but it's true.

Your better off treating it with Finasteride and Minoxidil while you are still young.

The only way you can claim that you have a weak donor area is after checking it out while your hair is longer. To be honest, you cannot tell this way! Grow your donor area longer, and then use a comb to check the density.

Don't discourage yourself from a hair transplant by creating unnecessary speed bumps. Just contact ASMED and give them some clearer photos. They'll give you an evaluation.

Have you had consultations with any leading surgeons to get their in-person opinion on this? As much help as these forums can be, the only way to really know the state of your donor area, your projected hair loss, what your various options are, and how good of a candidate you are for a hair transplant is to meet with a top surgeon who can evaluate you in person and give you a full evaluation.

Don't panic just yet. From the pictures, I don't see why you're so alarmed. Also, you have blonde hair which can have its advantages when it comes to hair transplants.

Set up some consultations and go from there and don't psych yourself out too much right now. The added stress won't do you any favors.
