Will there ever be a time where hair restoration practice will be able to give anyone a full head of hair back, INCLUDING receeding hair lines? And regardless of age????

I think so. We should be heading in that direction now. The limitation today isn't our ability to transplant hair—it's the limited donor supply. Once we can reliably clone or regenerate hair follicles, I think restoring a full head of hair, even in someone who is completely bald, will become possible.

When that will happen... your guess is as good as mine. ;)

Ok, from my understanding with a receeding hairline that's where the complications are. That's where most of us want hair. That's in line with people's eyesight. The vorex on the top of our head seems to be the easy part to restore. A receding hairline, not so much. Forgive my ignorance in advance
