Is it possible to estimate how many follicles I'd need to be transplanted to lower my hairline 1 inch using FUE? (photo)

Asked By:bigforehead

I am comfortable with my hairline at my temples and would like the top part of my hairline to match my temples more closely since right now there's quite a big difference. I measured it and it's about an inch. How many follicles would I need to be transplanted and how much would that cost? Also, if I get the procedure is it inadvisable to wear a fabric headband to cover the transplantation site? I'm assuming the answer will be yes, but I'm unsure. I've heard that hats are okay to wear.
