29, not balding, big forehead - would FUE Hair transplant or hairline advancement surgery make sense for me? (Photo)

Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Aesthetic Skin in Winnetka and Chicago. This is a great question. At 29, considering your options for lowering your hairline is a great step, especially since you're not experiencing hair loss but are looking to address a larger forehead or widow's peak. While Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a popular choice for hair restoration, it might not be the most suitable option for your situation, especially if you’re concerned about the permanence of the change. Hairline advancement could be a viable alternative, as it allows for a more significant adjustment to your hairline while maintaining a natural appearance. Additionally, before committing to any surgical options, you might want to explore non-surgical treatments like PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) or exosome injections. Both treatments can help promote hair health and growth, potentially enhancing the results of any future procedures. PRP and exosomes work by stimulating your hair follicles, which might improve the overall density and appearance of your hair. I love both of these treatments and highly recommend. I hope this helps and best of luck!
