How can I thicken temple hairs? (Photo)

Question

I'm only finasteride right now but I don't see my temples getting thick. Any tips on making them grow thicker ?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

your options are hair transplantation or injections with PRP and stem cells.  rogaine, finesteride, and viviscal should be used in both situations regardless.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Ilhan Serdaroglu, MD · Answer

there is no way to thicken the hair on the temples. İt is your genetic code..you may try to use minoxidil for a long time but PRP, fat transfer and ACell injections will not work for you .

Ray Bayati, MD · Answer

HiNon-surgical option: PRP and ACell injection used for thickening the hair and regrowing the recently lost function follicles. Another approach is fat transfer which is still considered minimall invasive similar to PRP.If you prefer surgical method then transplantation is the option to go. I would favor the non-surgical methods. Lower cost, less invasive.All the Best, -- See an expertRay Bayati, MDSacramento area, California

Jeff Donovan, MD, PhD · Answer

Finasteride and minoxidil and possibly PrP are all possibilities. However, one needs to keep in mind that if the changes in one's temples are truly from hairline maturation (rather than make balding per se), then no treatment is going to have an effect. Please review with your physician.

It is best to see a hair transplant surgeon for evaluation. But from just looking at your pictures, you can do hairtransplant to fill in the areas in the temple points and temple area. In our experience, propecia usually works well for hair loss in midscalp to crown areas and doesnt do much for temple and temple points.
