I am 8 months post op a hair transplant done in the US by a reputable surgeon that specializes in textured hair (for context my hair is tightly coiled 4c). I have a few concerning areas for growth and density but one area in particular is my frontal scalp barely having any hair in this area. I know Im supposed to wait until I hit the 12 month mark before I fully worry but I have a hard time believing hair will just appear in this area out of nowhere. Im not sure if it looks that way because of the way coily hair grows but I doubt it. If thats actually the case Im worried the grafts did not survive and Im going to need a second procedure. The area looks super shiny to me under bright light. When I comb out the whole area it looks less concerning but when I part the hair to examine it, it looks extremely concerning.
Hello, Im a 26 year old Latino/Hispanic male of Spanish and Native American descent. I have very thick hair which Im grateful for, but I have a prominent widows peak. My hairline is shaped like an M and has been this way since my late teens. I have been doing research on hair transplants for years but I havent seen anything on individuals who are getting their hairline cosmetically enhanced without any hair loss. I really want to get this done because I always wear my hair down and cover my hairline because of how far the temples go back. Also worth mentioning that Ive been on fin/min before and it gave me ED and heart palpitations, so Im not sure if I want to try it again.
Hi Hope you all have a wonderful day, So I just had my hair transplant 10 months ago, and after every shower, I spray my hair with two phase keratin conditioner and I dont rinse it and it stays in my hair to keep it soft ( thats how product is supposed to be used). I wonder if this product would harm my transplanted hair and Im worried can I continue using it safely ? Thank you so much
I've always had a high forehead and it's been an insecurity of mine, but over the past 10 years or so (right around the time I began graduate school) I've noticed my hairline has been gradually receding. I don't have much hair loss anywhere else on my head and my hair is very thick, especially in the back and on the sides. Male pattern baldness runs in my family and my dad has a very high forehead, too. Would I be a candidate for either treatment? Thank you! (1st pic is recent, 2nd was at 22yo)
Please see the attached photos. Im aware that Im a tough case. Wondering where I fall on the Norwood scale? How successful a transplant would be (including using beard hair)? Do I exhibit any signs of problematic recession such as retrograde? Thank you!
I am a 26-year-old female with a small bald spot, front and center of my head. As you can imagine, the location is made it difficult to part my hair any other way than a side part. I dont remember when my hair fell out, but to the best of my knowledge, I did not have the spot when I was born. I was told it could be triangular alopecia or a form of it. I do not have any other bald spots or hair loss and tried a corticosteroid shot to stimulate hair growth along with OTC growth products recommended by a dermatologist. No success. I am curious about a hair transplant and was wondering if it could be possible and if so, how many hair grafts would likely be needed so I could try and estimate the cost for this surgery?
1yr+ since Esthetician used IPL along entire left hairline. After 7mos of minoxidil blend & latisse, there is short, thin, fluffy, light brown hair growing at least half the thickness & color of right hairline. Derm advised to try topicals first bc hair might just be stunned. I do not think this regrowth will ever look/feel/act like my original hairline. Can transplant be done to restore hairline if there are still active follicles? How long should I wait for regrowth to appear thicker?
I had a melanoma in situ removed from the top of my scalp 3 years ago and it left a quarter sized bald spot. The skin appears to have blood flow(blanchable) but is thinner than the rest of my scalp. Is it possible that hair could be transplanted in that spot? Has anyone had success? Thank you in advance!
