Is it possible to fix a widow's peak without needing surgery?

Question

I have a widows peak and I want to grow some hair in the missing spots but I don't want to get surgery or use a dermaroller.

I suggest seeing a hair loss expert now to evaluate and go over your condition and provide you information about your best treatment options. There are great non-invasive options like prp/progesterone and/or hair transplantation. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

No, not usually. The hairline changes that lead to a widow's peak represent a form of maturation of the hairline. The only way to change is surgery for most people. Keep in mind the hairline will continue to mature so it is not a one time fix. Theoretically, laser could be used to remove hairs of the widow's peak in exceptionally rare circumstances but that is unusual.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

The widow's peak is a left over part of your younger hairline. You can find a doctor willing to do laser hair removal to remove it, but you still may need surgery if the hairline is negatively impacted
