Correcting a bad hair transplant may be difficult than getting it done right in the first place.  Many doctors offer corrective procedures and it would be best to see a doctor in person to explore your options.

Jennifer Krejci, MD · Answer

Many patients ask for very low or flat hairlines thinking that this is what they want. In reality a hairline that is low or too flat will cause it to look unnatural and that it the telltale sign of a bad hair transplant. From what I can see, your hairline design looks appropriate and natural.  You do need to wait a year for full results to decide on another procedure. Whether you can get another hair transplant will depend on the quality and availability of your donor hair.

John Kahen, MD · Answer

You must wait at least a full year after your procedure to do the second procedure so your surgeon maybe able to see the areas that needs grafts. There's a rule of thumb for hairlines which surgeons tend to follow so they avoid forming an unusual hairline that would look unnatural. If you are still not satisfied with the results after the year, refer back to your surgeon.

Karl Hekimian, MD · Answer

It is much too early to evaluate your final appearance- you need to wait a good 8-12 months to see what your results will be.  Typically an adult hairline is 8-10 centimeters from the bridge of the nose; although many patients want it placed lower, doing so can give an unusual appearance that worsens as you continue to age.  I suggest you wait a full year for final concerns, then visit your surgeon.

Ilhan Serdaroglu, MD · Answer

we have to examine your frontal hair line anatomy in our clinic.. it is impossible to say that any hair transplant surgeon may lower it or not.  Beside that, regrowing hair actually takes 10-13 months for hair to become full mature , as thick and bright  as native hair.
