    Default Is my donor area enough for a good hair transplant?

    I was pretty excited about the idea of getting a HT until I took pics of the back of my head and noticed a possibly poor donor area which made me very sad today.
    I want you to sincerely tell me if my donor area will be enough for a successful hair transplant, or just a mediocre one. THANK YOU.

    You need to be seen by a Dr to see if donor area is sufficient. No one can really tell by pictures. I sent my pictures into a top Dr and the staff evaluated the picture and told me how many grafts i would need...when i actually got the hands on evaluation from the Dr i was not a candidate for a HT because of the donor area being too thin.

    I would add propecia to your regimen and hope replicel comes out next year. You just want to slow it down for the next treatment.

    Thanks bro, if i can't get a ht I'll try micropigmentation. I can't just be bald, I'd rather pass away
