Need Advice On Hair Transplantation Treatment

Hello sir,

I am a boy of 18 years and am suffering from hair-loss. I have been using tugain 5 percent foam for the past 3 and a half months but haven't seen any improvements as yet. I still continue to shed a lot of hair everyday. I intend to continue to use tugain for another 4 months, after which, I planned on undergoing a hair transplantation treatment to get my lost hair back. Is this a good idea? Is there an age limit for hair transplantation treatment? P.S I have been using tugain 5 percent foam and follihair tablets along with shampooing with Anaphase.
