Dear Doctor:

I am 42 years old.

Goals
I do not expect to have a full head of hair as I had 10 years ago. I would like to have the best result possible to reduce the balding look. Another aspect is that I frequently shave my head or crop my hair very short, so it is of utmost importance that no scarring would be detectable.

Questions

1. Based on my photos, what do you think is a realistic goal for me if I am to proceed with a FUE hair transplant?

2. Do you suggest I opt for a FUE hair transplant instead of strip?

3. What kind of results can I expect ? Can I see some patient photos to get an idea ?

4. How many days of surgery will I need ?

5. Approximately how much it would cost?

6. Will any of the scarring be noticeable or detectable? It is very important that there will be no visible scarring as I cut my hair short quite often.

7. Do I need to shave the donor site for the surgery ?

I hope this information is sufficient and I look forward to your comments.

Thanks and regards,

HairSite Visitor.
