If you wonder then why are hairs in the back of the head not susceptible to hair loss? Well, that only God knows. However, it is the case. Think of the baldest man that you know (who has not shaved off the hair on the back of his head). He still has a patch of hair back there. Even the baldest man has a retained horseshoe of hair in the back of the head. The only trick when performing a hair transplant then is to know what area is "safe" for transplantation, i.e., what area over time will not be lost when the person becomes older. That is one major reason why transplanting an individual at 20 years of age can be problematic. We simply do not know how much hair in the back of the head will not fall out over time. Plus, we may simply run out of donor hair to transplant the front of the head and maintain a natural result as more hairs (that were not transplanted) fall out as one ages.
This judgment is really one of the major attributes that separate an experienced hair-transplant surgeon from a novice. Knowing whom to operate on (that is who is safe and who is not) is a cardinal prerequisite to performing safe hair transplant work. With the laws of supply and demand, someone who has tremendous donor ???? hair density, i.e., there are a lot of hair follicles per square centimeter in the donor area, can cover a tremendous degree of baldness naturally and impressively in many cases. A surgeon's use of grafts wisely in a good pattern distribution with good angulation will help ensure that the result is both natural and dense given a particular person's degree of hair loss and usable donor hair supply.
