I have a very uneven hairline, what can I do to fix it? (Photo)

Dear mohammad2218,

Thank you for your clinical post and
photographs. At a very young age you’ve
had some early frontal and temporal recession and notching. This is likely male pattern hair loss. However, visiting with an endocrinologist or
knowledgeable hair loss dermatologist to ensure that this is male pattern hair
loss and not a secondary cause of hair thinning is important. A trial of non-surgical treatment such as
low-level light therapy, testosterone blockage with Finasteride or Propecia and
red light therapy and the injection of a plasma rich protein can all be tried
in an effort to help the rapid progression of the recessioning and
notching. At this point in the notching,
it is probably better to wait until some more recession has occurred so you can
establish a hairline that doesn’t have natural hairs that are falling around
and establish this hairline with a follicular unit only extraction
transplantation that leaves no scar at the back of the scalp. Your initial session of hair restoration will
simply be to strengthen the frontal and temporal hairlines and smoothen out any
recession and notching irregularity that has occurred. It is important to note that significantly
lowering the hairline will be ill-advised as we have precious little donor site
to populate the rest of your male pattern hair loss as you get older.

I hope this information is of some
assistance and best of luck.
