Is it possible to get a minor hairline transplant at the temporal/peaks/points to frame the face?

Question

20 years old with a high line. Since I was younger I never really had the temporal peaks, that square and frame the of face look. With the help of hair spray I create the Illusion of temporal/points/sides bringing hair down, I am just exhausted doing the process each day to cover up, showing less side forehead, (bringing hair down) It doesn’t look right having no articulation on sides. Are there exceptions (individually) with doing a procedure in the temporal angles/ areas/ points at 20 from Hair doctors, Thank you

If you are considering surgery it would be best to discuss your options with a doctor.  A minor surgery or major surgery depends on exactly what you are looking for.A minor surgery is still a surgery.It would be nearly impossible to tell what your exact goals are without a proper exam and further discussion of your goals.

You are young for a hair transplant procedure. Even if you ignore this advise and carry on with a procedure, you may still lose hairs on the frontal hairline and the implantation would look very unnatural. So either way, a surgeon should avoid delivering an aggressive hairline at all costs.
But my professional advise would be to wait for another 5-6 years at least and monitor any change over the frontal hairline level.

At the age of 20 years young it is still way to young for a hair transplant. This is because if you run the risk of losing more than we chase the hair by repeating transplants throughout your life and it can become costly. Prevention is first and most certainly very important.

The decision to undergo the hair transplant surgery should be made after proper consultation with a hair transplant surgeon. In my opinion, 20 is too young to undergo any type of hair transplant surgery. So, it will be better to wait for sometime before taking any call to proceed further.

Hello. I understand your frustration and unhappiness BUTyou are far too young to have a transplant. I suggest you hang in there for at least 5 more years and assess your situation then. Good luck to you.
