Can scalp hair be permanently removed even though not bald? (Photos)

Yes, you can have hairline contouring with laser hair removal. It may take a series of treatments. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a laser hair removal expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Hello, thanks for your question and photos. It’s not unusual for men with receding hairlines or male pattern baldness to seek laser hair removal treatments. Keep in mind that you will require a series of several treatment sessions in order to achieve your final results, but over the course of those treatments, you should begin to notice fewer and fewer hairs that grow back in the targeted area. Just be sure to work with an experienced cosmetic surgeon or laser technician to ensure the safest and most effective results. 

Thanks for your question and the photos – and we would recommend a consultation with a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon to learn the best treatment options but certainly, hairline contouring is an option for you – it takes a series of treatments and you may need maintenance as well.  Good luck.
