All I can say is that if you ask 10 people who had both fue and strip done before what they prefer, I am willing to bet 10 out of 10 would say fue.

Yes, I am the idiot guy around here. I could ask questions all day about this stuff!
I still don’t know how I’m going to handle this, but I may end up going with the same choice you made. I could afford a strip procedure, but I am not a rich man. And I don’t know that I would be willing to undergo a second procedure. Seems like I might be buying myself a few more years of hair, but then having to just go buy more later. I just don’t know about this at all. It’s very hard for me because I play in a band, and am in front of a lot of people when I do this, so my physical appearance is very important to me. I guess I’ll just keep thinking about it, and keep posting here, doing research and such.
I would spend the money in a heartbeat if I knew it would look good though.

Save yourself a lot of money,just shave your head,or at least give that a try,before starting on the run to chase hair every few years!
I shave my head,yes hair would be better,but hair transplants can be a slippy slope,so becareful Research,Research.

Are you on meds to try and keep your existing hair??
I’d recommend you FUE instead of strip, for sincerely i believe that Fue technique offers a more healthy and natural solution. For the research part, i’m sure you’re doing the best you can to find the best option for you, as far as i can contribute, i recommend that you send your photos to available clinics and have some plans made on them. This way you can have more solid options to pick. And also by doing this you can see their former patients’ photos which had similar hair loss compared to yours and have a better grip on their possible work on your case. You can also ask for patient references and speak to their former patients who’d be willing to help you, this would be a good way of gathering information and choosing which clinic to work with.
Here is the Hairline Clinic’s mail address; Beyhan Ozkesen, the director of the clinic who prepares the plans of the patients can make a plan on your photos and send them to you in 24 hours, if you send your pictures for consultation:
To everyone who commented, thanks. I will be sending some photos to a few clinics very soon, and will get back to share my results. I really do need help with this, so your thoughts and opinions are appreciated.
In regards to asking about this stuff, what are the rules here? I don’t want to get banned for posting something I shouldn’t in regards to quotes and recommendations from different clinics.

I doubt you will get banned for posting quotes, post away, I want to see what different doctors quote you.
