What matters the most is not the age but the stage of baldness reached. Obviously, it is important to be very careful and reserved when a young person, with a little baldness, wants a hair transplant. If you do not understand precisely the causes of the hair loss, it is better to wait and postpone the surgery. Moreover, some medical treatments like minoxidil and finasteride are often very efficient at that age but if the baldness reached an important stage, it is possible to make a hair transplant before the recommended age, which is 25 years old. It would be best to see a good doctor, who will analyse your case and recommend you a therapeutic solution.

In my opinion, the use of the microscope is essential for the cutting of the grafts. Thanks to it, it is possible to avoid the transections (bad cutting of the hair which stops the regrow of the hair). It allows to cut and to sculpt the grafts making the thin ring of skin on the top as little as possible. It permits also to protect the telogen hair (the resting phase of the fu) which are shorter and transparents. For white hair, the microscope is incontrovertible. With the use of the microscope the transection rate is around 1%, while 10 to 40% of the hair are destryed during the naked eye cutting.
