I’m 20 years old and thinking about having a hair transplant in a few years, my hairline isn’t currently receding and I don’t have a family history of baldness, however, I have always had a very large natural forehead which really exposes my temples. I was wondering if I would be eligible for a hair transplant to get a better head of hair? Or do I have to be balding to be considered?
Answer: Recommend forehead reduction If the size of your forehead is what is bothering you, you may be a good candidate for forehead reduction surgery where the hairline is lowered. It is best to wait until your late 20s or early 30s to have a hair transplant. The reason for this is that your hair loss pattern isn’t stabilized until your 30s. Additionally, a hair transplant done too early may look unnatural. Also, after a forehead reduction you can still get a hair transplant if you have hair loss when you get older.

Answer: Hair transplants at 20 You need to be extremely careful. A transplant at 20 is risky - always. If you bald in the future - you will have tufts if transplanted hair in the front and nothing behind that (which will look abnormal). Meet with an experienced surgeon to review your family history. He or she can follow your hairline over many years and guide you when this might be considered (if at all). There are plenty of patients with poor outcomes from transplanting the temples too early. Even if you don’t feel it - you and your surgeons need to assume you will bald in the future. You need to plan for the best case scenario and worse case scenario over the next 40 years. That’s a long time so get goo advice from an experienced surgeon.
