I would like to fill in hair around my widow's peak and extend down around the side of my forehead to create a more rounded hairline (ie bottom of widow's peak is where I would like the rest of my hairline to be filled in to). Is a hair transplant a better option for me than a forehead reduction? If so, which type of transplant? How long would I need to be away from work so that it would not be obvious as I can't wear a scarf or hat to work? What would I expect to pay in my area? Thank you.

Answer: Female hairline advancement? The hairline can be lowered his hair transplants. However a better choice in my opinion for most women is a hairline advancement using the Irregular Trichophytic Incision with possible brow lift if needed. With this procedure you can be totally finished and back in social settings in one week and do not have to wait for several hair transplant procedures or the hair to grow. There is no texture change as occurs with transplants. See a surgeon who is very familiar with this technique and look at his results. You should not see a visible scar.

Answer: Female hairline shape You can consider both options of a forehead reduction/hairline advancement and a hair transplant to create a rounder feminine hairline.The advantage of a surgical forehead reduction/hairline advancement is that you will get an immediate result but the scar can be unpredictable and the hairline can be harsh and unless done expertly, the hair growth direction can be unnatural.Hair transplantation will give a natural appearance but might need to be repeated to build up density and takes over a year to mature. FUE would require you to shave a donor area which most women would rather not do so a Strip FUT method of harvesting hair is probably better for you.

Answer: Hair grafts vs hairline lowering/forehead reduction surgery Both are excellent options for lowering your hairline. Traditionally, the high hairline has been addressed by hair transplantation. Hair grafts can look very natural here but may require a number of procedures, depending on the density and the amount of lowering required. Hairline lowering or advancement (also known as forehead reduction) is a great method of reducing the forehead with immediately noticeable results. The ideal patient for the hairline advancement procedure is typically female who is born with a high hairline and no personal or familial history of progressive hair loss. To select appropriate candidates for this procedure, a thorough examination of the scalp must be performed with a focus on scalp laxity, direction of hair exit, and frontotemporal points and recessions. These key elements are important for selecting appropriate candidates for hairline lowering surgery. Forward-growing hairs at the hairline allow for hair growth through the scar and the highest probability of scar camouflage. Patients with backwards exiting hairs at any point along the hairline (as seen in those with cowlicks) should understand that they might require future hair transplantation to disguise the scar and achieve optimal results. Hair grafting can be performed for individuals who desire coverage of deep temporal recessions or advancement of the downward-facing temple hairs. Adequate scalp laxity can be determined by the relative ease of moving the hair-bearing scalp forward and backward and the pinching of forehead skin. For patients with relatively tight scalps, massaging the scalp in a backward-forward movement for a month before the surgery can improve the forward advancement achieved. In order to determine which procedure is ideal for you, a proper examination by a hair expert is necessary.
