Recreating hairlines – WRassman,M.D. BaldingBlog


I would like to get this hairline back with a hair transplant.  I think the issue is graft angulation or hair direction and also maybe density, but I really want to know how to describe it and understand it and if it can be made “right”.  

Most men I know would kill for that hairline, but this is not practical when you have extensive balding.  In this photo, there is no recession. In fact, depending on this person’s age, the hairline is yet to mature. If he is under 29, that transition may yet happen. Concerning replicating that hairline in a hair transplant, I do this routinely in women, but we shoot for a mature hairline as the targeted goal in men. I have rarely done this on men with that position or shape; however, I remember one man who was 20 years old and had a million-dollar contract for a daily soap. They told him that his maturing hairline would not make him the sex icon they needed, so I created it on him as his case was unique. He kept his job.  Creating this hairline takes more hair, and in balding men, it is not a good idea to put such a lot of hair up front but rather give an age-appropriate mature hairline shape saving hair for future balding. I wrote an extensive article on hairline shapes; see article here:   phenotype article published
