I'm 18 years old and my forehead is big. Can I get a hair transplant now? (Photo)

If you have a high forehead you do not like, see a doctor for possible treatment options such as hair transplant surgery or forehead reduction surgery.

If you are a male do nothing now until you know if you will have balding in the future! If you are a female this can be done with hairline advancement using the Irregular Trichophytjc Hairline Lowering that we developed and does not leave a scar if properly done.

       
A hair transplant can give you the
results you desire by lowering your hairline. 
You should consult with a hair transplant specialist to discuss this
further.

You might want to wait for a few years. You could cover your forehead by sporting a hairstyle with long hair on the front. May be useful to see a hair stylist.If nothing works, see a hair transplant surgeon to discuss options.

Hair transplantation is a great way to lower the hairline. Another option is hairline lowering surgery (also known as forehead reduction) for reducing the forehead with immediately noticeable results.  The ideal patient for the hairline lowering surgery is typically a female born with a high hairline and ideally has no personal or familial history of progressive hair loss. Because the fine hair grow through the scar in hairline lowering surgery, thereby camouflaging the incision, it is important to not have any personal or family history of hair loss. If male-pattern hair loss develops years later following hairline lowering surgery and the scar becomes evident,  we can place a few grafts into the hairline lowering scar to camouflage the incision. In general, the single-stage hairline lowering procedure performed on a scalp with average laxity will allow for up to 2.5 cm of forehead height reduction. Very lax scalps may allow for up to 3.5 cm of lowering with this one-stage approach.  

If you are a male, then your biggest enemy is the progressive thinning leading to a
balding pattern that is not evident at this point in time. The degree of
thinning that you are experiencing would suggest that you should see a
doctor who most likely will get Bulk Measurements of your hair to
determine the degree of the thinning that you are presently having. If the
diagnosis is early genetic hair loss (the most common cause of hair loss
in young men), then the best treatment would be the drug finasteride which
is highly effective in men of your age and may not only stop the hair loss
but possibly reverse it. If you are developing a more advanced balding
pattern the best test to get will determine the Bulk Measurements of your
hair and this will show, over a one-year time frame, how effective the
treatment will be. Once you know this information, then you and your
doctor need to develop a MASTER PLAN which will define what you need to do
over the years to come.
