No sideburns due to facelift and lateral brow lift 10 yrs ago.

Many men and women have hair transplant procedures to add hair to their sideburns.  What you describe makes sense and it can be done.

A telltale sign of some traditional facelift incisions includes the loss of the temporal hair tufts, but newer techniques have evolved so that is no longer a problem. However, for those who have had surgery with the older technique, there is hope. Hair transplantation is an excellent option for those who wish to restore a natural appearance to their sideburns. We commonly perform follicular unit extraction (FUE) hair transplantation in my practice, where individual hair follicles are harvested from the back of your scalp and transplanted to the sideburns region. The transplanted follicles are inserted at an angle to mimic the natural direction of hair growth. The procedure is usually performed in half a day. Please refer to my link below for more information regarding hair transplantation.
