    Consultations can be done via email.

    Regarding Propecia, is it just that you don't want to commit to taking a pill everyday?

    What does your hair look like if you grew it out long? I'm waiting until I really have to for a HT. Theres powders and make ups that help with long hair if you keep it curly and shaggy and long. I am 32 also.

    Hey

    I must admit I have had a "number 1" since I was 1 so its been a while! From what I remember it was very thick and coarse, I would say quite "wirey" infact!

    I just took a look at those clinics and they look good, but they are are on the wrong side of the atlantic. Ideally, looking for something in the EU or is it worth making that effort to travel there? Also can you do consultations remotely?
    no reputable HT clinic is going to operate on you considering your level of loss and age if you arent on propecia. sorry but its just facts...

    Where did you get this "fact" ? HTs have NOTHING to do with taking propecia/age/level of loss. HT doctors will tell you to use Fin to hopefully stop any further loss HOWEVER they also know propecia doesn't work for all people. The only time an HT doctor will advise against getting a transplant is when you have a very large bald area and only a very small area of donor hair. Taking/not taking Fin is your choice. Just dont expect an HT will give you anywhere near what you looked like when you had your original hair unless like I said before you have a very small bald area.

    If I were you , and I had the courgae to shave my head like you do, I wouldn't do anythign now

    Your head looks good shaved and as much as you want hair you will never get a full thick head of hair

    Don't do something that you may regret ...just my opinion .

    And you may never be able to cut your hair with a #1 or # 2 goign forward

    This is a very good point - see you're taking a risk going for a HT if you are already shaving your head - once you commit to a HT - the linear OR non-linear scar may make it difficult to go back to your "old look" if (1) the worst happens and the transplant does not pan out well or (2) the thinning continues and the transplant looks thin after 3 - 5 years.

    I understand your concerns about the ED pill (Propecia) - I too will not be taking that rubbish and Merck and the rest of the supporters/promoters can shove their money grabbing bullshit where it belongs - I am one of the many that believe Merck has been instrumental in withholding progress for real treatments being made available to the public.
