Can Hair Transplants Look Natural? What Areas Can Be Used as Donor Hair?

Fine Hairs are needed at the sides of my forehead to make it appear that my forehead is less wide than it actually is. I prefer not to use the back of my scalp as the donor site. Are there any other candidates for this? Like maybe leg hair or even armpit hair?

A: Hair transplant can be Natural I agree with you that having hairs implanted on the side of your scalp should make your forehead seem less wide. However , as to where to get the grafts from, that can only be done in a consultation. My associate, Dr Pistone is a world renowned hair transplant surgeon whose work creates a natural hairline- not like the 'old doll transplants'. You can see the pictures on The attached link under hair transplants . We have 8 offices in the area so we can tell you in person the best donor areas. The areas you mentioned- leg and armpit - do not have the same texture and do not provide for appropriate hair density. The consultation is free for viewers of real self . Good luck !

Forehead Type 3 Setback - Male Hairline Problem, How To Treat?

from what i have learned about this operation the problem is this. As a male i need incision that in in the hair not at the hairline. But to remove the extra skin that will be left after the sinus setback my hairline should be lifted. Is there a way to keep the same hairline height and at the same have the incision made so that the scar would not be seen? thanks

A: Hairline Lowering

There are many ways to camouflage incisions made in and around the hairline.  This would depend on the of extent of your hair loss and how much you want your hairline lowered.
