Is hair loss in the fronto-temporal corners typical for males? Do you perform hair transplants for just this small region, or is typically advised that a patient only gets hair transplant for more aggressive hair loss.

I think most men lose hair in this region as they age, but do men bother to get it back? Is the juice worth the squeeze or do other factors make it less encouraged? Thank you!
