Who is the best candidate for Hair Transplants ?
The very best candidates for hair transplants are men in their late 20s-30s and 40s. Very young people- who are in their late teens or in their early 20s- need proper counseling since baldness and the future pattern of hair loss is not yet established. Also these young people are often obsessed about hair loss and end up getting operated early for very small patches, leading to many hair transplants. We have seen a young man who had 4 hair transplants before he was 22 years in age!! Remember: hair transplantation is a treatment for baldness, not for small areas of thinning of hair!! Such early baldness should be treated by drugs.
