hello and welcome to health care magic.
hair thinning is a process which begins at the age of 20 and continues. hair thinning has many reasons and hair transplant is done to restore a lost hairline and this may not prevent further hair fall. 20 is not the age for hair transplant since the process of hair fall begins. do not jump into committing yourself for a hair transplant.
use medical therapies judiciously.
you may also try peptide treatment in combination with minoxidil.
thank you and take care.
feel free to contact.
