Is hairline lowering more expensive than a full hair transplant?

Question

Specifically in Turkey (I've heard it's much cheaper there) would a hairline lowering be less expensive or more expensive than a full hair transplant? Thank you

Some hamburgers may be more expensive than steaks.  A cheap hamburger may also taste better than an expensive steak.In other words, the cost of surgery should not be a primary factor in choosing a cosmetic surgery on your own body.  Do your homework and find the best doctor based on reputation and skill (not price).

Hairline lowering vs.  hair transplants and cost?  I do both procedures and my bias is based on what I think it gives a far better, cheaper, and more natural looking result.  We invented the Irregular Trichophytic Hairline Advancement  procedure.  Using this method you will not have a visible scar and the results are immediate and you do not have to wait for hair to grow out. The density is your natural density without a texture change in the hair as occurs with hair transplantation. See and experience surgeon with this method for best results

Hairline created in hair transplantation shows how experienced is your doctor.Every hairline should be planned proportional to the patient's face.Some might be lower some might be higher but in any case it should be looking natural at the end.The line should be dense enough to make a smooth passage to both temporals.

On the other hand number of the grafts or the duration of the surgery is important for a quotation

The procedures there are done with very cheap labor and not by doctors with any significant training in hair transplantation. You really don't know what you are really getting when you have an FUE or a hairline lowering procedure in Turkey. I am the doctor who first pioneered FUE and wrote the first official publication in a major journal on FUE, defining everything we really know about it today. There are many doctor throughout the world who have developed expertise in FUE but few who have developed hairline lowering surgery experience. Ask yourself, “would you have your heart surgery at a 'fire sale price' like a Turkey FUE?
