What's been your experience with propecia?

ok, so what do we do for the widows peak area? you say Minoxidil is effective on hair loss which is a much harder task to surely erradicate than a centermeter at the side of your hairline.

Well, recently I've been consulting with FFS surgeons, and have been informed that scalp advancement (as part of brow reduction) will help, but I'll also need some hair grafts to take care of the peaks to each side as well. I was hoping that just scalp advancement would take care of it, but when you consider they can only move your scalp forward about half an inch, one can see where any "peaks" would need some additional help.  YMMV.

I don't like the idea of that! I'm sure there must be an advancement somewhere rather than hair grafts which never really work properly or will look quite right, especially on such a minor problem as the widows peak area. I have also looked into it and a FFS surgeon I spoke to also said it's not a good idea.

Well, if you find out anything, I'd love to know of it! At the rate the chemicals are working, i'll be dead before anything grows in the front, even though it is much better than it was just 4 years ago when I look at pics from then.
