does hair loss ever stabilise??
If you take medication that reduces DHT to a level that isn't damaging to your hair follicles, maybe.

As you say, it's difficult to guarantee with certainty.

However, my point was really that most people continue to bald without medication. The worst case is having a hair transplant, your native hair continuing to fall out and you not having enough left for another surgery to cover it.

It's better to go bald gracefully than end up with an unnatural look IMHO.

Not a good look;

If you had that head, surely you’d be shaving the sides and going full Mohawk?

I'd want the full stripe, otherwise it looks like there's some tumbleweed stuck on your head.

He's got enough left for that at least.

Has anyone used Tajmeel Clinic (Dr.Khalil) in Bournemouth? I was thinking about getting a quote!
If you're serious about getting surgery, I'd personally start with looking at the recommended list on thehairrestorationnetwork website. If you start a thread on there, theyll advise what's possible and talk about treatment plans and surgeons.

From my perspective, choosing a UK surgeon is generally a bad idea - they're mostly terrible or overly expensive.
