Lowering a Naturally High Hairline with a Hair Transplant Procedure?
This question, from a curious member of our Hair Restoration Social Community and Discussion Forums, was answered by Mattj – A senior member and consultant to Coalition physician Dr. H. Rahal:
Hello, I’m a 31 year old Asian male who was born with a natural Norwood 3 – 4 level of [tag]hairline recession[/tag]. Although I haven’t experienced any [tag]hair loss[/tag] since, it’s always been a personal sore spot, and I’m finally ready to do something about it. I’m wondering, is it possible to undergo a [tag]hair transplant[/tag] procedure and lower my [tag]matured hairline[/tag] to the level it should have been in my early twenties?
It would certainly be possible to construct a new hairline somewhat lower than even your juvenile hairline. If you haven’t lost much during adulthood, I see no reason why you would be a poor [tag]hair transplantation[/tag] candidate. Especially since Asian hair is usually wavy and coarse, so it should provide good coverage. It’s best to see what a [tag]hair restoration[/tag] physician has to say regarding graft numbers, which will differ depending on just how much lower you want to go. Also, keep in mind that [tag]hair line lowering[/tag] should be approached in a somewhat conservative manner to account for any future hair loss.
