Hairline Correction – How it Can Be Done

Hairline correction is a procedure designed to address the common concern that some people have with their forehead shape and how it relates to the rest of their face. The goal is to help make the forehead appear smaller and more proportionate to other features like the nose, chin and eyes. There are several ways that the hairline can be changed, including at-home or medical treatments and surgical methods.

One of the most common ways that the hairline can be corrected is by changing how it looks with styling. This can be done by using various hair styles that draw attention to the forehead in a way that makes it look less noticeable. This can be accomplished by shaving the area to expose the scalp, cutting a side-swept or straight hairline, or by growing the hair longer and making it appear thicker at the front.

Another option is to use a hair transplantation procedure to create a more natural looking forehead. This is typically recommended for men with an advancing hairline that have significant thinning or receding in other areas of the scalp. It is important for a surgeon to be experienced and have an artistic eye when creating a new hairline as there are factors that must be taken into account when designing the new pattern. These include how the scalp and hair grow, the facial features, age and gender, and the face shape.압구정모발이식

When a hairline is created using a transplant it is important that the surgeon understands how to properly design the new pattern to match the existing ones. It is also important for the surgeon to know how to properly harvest follicles from the scalp and implant them in the correct way. This involves ensuring that the follicles are implanted in the right angle, depth and direction to provide the best results. A skilled surgeon will also take into account the natural thickness of the hair at the front of the scalp and how it relates to the rest of the head.

While there are times when a low flat hairline can be appropriate for certain patients (such as young patients who may have potential aggressive loss, older patients with advanced loss and limited donor and specific facial shapes) the most successful results are those that mimic the pattern of a mature forehead. It is not uncommon for us to perform revision surgery to fix an unnatural hairline or a widow’s peak caused by a previous surgical procedure.강남헤어라인

Forehead reduction is a simple, minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that can be performed under local or general anesthesia. The recovery is generally quite quick and patients can resume most activities within a few days with no bruising or swelling. Before your appointment it is a good idea to do some self-evaluation by gently pulling on your hairline to see how flexible your forehead skin is. The more flexible and adaptable it is, the better the result will be.
