21 year old male - is hair transplant or forehead reduction better for me? (Photos)

Question

Hello I'm a 21 year old male. My forehead is very big from my birth. I'm experiencing hair fall too. Which procedure do you is better for me. Hair transplant or forehead reduction.

Timothy Osborn, MD · Answer

My wheelhouse favors doing hairline advancement and with good thickness/volume of hair, you would hide the incisions well. The recovery is pretty quick, mostly swelling and tight feeling. Its been a long time since I did a hair transplant so I would say talk to someone who can give you good info, but you would likely get a similar outcome. I don't know if the distance (you are about 2.5-3cm back in FT area) matters with transplants but more space to fill probably higher likelihood of needing a couple rounds of harvest/transplantation.

Thank you so much for your question, Vignesh! You will benefit more from Forehead Reduction surgery. Forehead Reduction or hairline lowering is an easy surgery that lasts for 1 hour and on the next day you can go back to your daily life. The hairline can be lowered up to 4 cm and the stitches are dissolvable, so it will be absorbed by the body as a wound heals. Hope it helps!

Hello. If you want to get fast results in one day, you can choose forehead reduction. If you do a hair transplant, you will have to wait 1-2 years for the hair to grow. I believe you will benefit well from forehead reduction. Please review our results. You can get more detailed information about me, ask all questions about your case and sending your photos to my assistants at the number on my profile. You can also book an online consultation and discuss your problems with me. With all respect.
