Sideburn transplant after facelift? (Photo)

Question

I had a facelift a few years ago. I feel my sideburn hairline is a little high but I'm not sure. Is it too high? I have no beard or sideburn hair. I'd like for my sideburn to maybe come down at 1/3 of ear. Also I've considered laser to reduce appearance of spider veins. Should I have that performed before hair transplant?

Hair transplants can reconstruct your sideburns and give you very natural results. It is a great option for patients who lost their sideburns following a face lift. Get the blood vessels treated first, and then do the hair transplant.

Hello and thank you for your question.  I suggest laser treatments to lessen the spider veins before you get a transplant for your sideburns.  Best of luck to you.

The sideburn can definitely be restored by a hair transplant using your scalp hair as the donor. I agree that it is better to get the laser to remove the spider vein first before getting a hair transplant.

You  should  better have laser to reduce appearance of spider veins before hair transplant. your hairline is a little high. You may restore the beard or sideburn hair with  sapphire  FUE technique and  make them come down at 1/3 of ear.
