watabtme Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 9 years ago, when I was 23, I began receding, and immediately started a regimen of Propecia, Rogaine and Spironolactone. I have been following this regimen religiously since then, and have been able to maintain / strengthen. Now, at 32, I would like to fill in the small amount of hair I lost back then. I would say I need to bring my hairline down about 1-2cm in order to have a full, "normal" head of hair. Can anyone recommend for me some good doctors in the NJ / NY area? Also, is FUE the best option? Would I have to shave my head, or would I be able to keep my hair at its current length (~1.5"). Is it possible to do this kind of surgical procedure without anyone knowing? For example, if I get the procedure done on a Thurs or Fri, and stay home all weekend, would it be not noticeable by Monday? Thank you for any / all info!

Senior Member gobble Posted January 16, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted January 16, 2013 so after 10 days you couldn't tell you had any work done? that must be a world record hahahaha Why do you say that? That's about what they told me going in. I suppose if you took a close look at my scalp you could see something but who's going to do that? I guess I'm also not one that cares if anybody knows.
