This 33-year-old gentleman had a transplant a few years ago at another clinic to increase the density of his frontal hairline.

This patient is a 33-year-old transgender female from Seattle who desired a feminine hairline. Her hair is light brown, medium thickness in caliber, which is excellent for frontal hairline and frontal-temporal recession restoration/transplantation. The reason that her hair is excellent for the transplant is that it is thick enough to give the appearance of nice, natural density, but not too thick which can give an unnatural look in the frontal hairline. In the frontal zone, we strive to put the thinnest hairs in the most anterior aspect of the hairline, and build a gradient to thicker hairs t

This patient is a 34 year old gentleman who was unsatisfied after two prior transplants to the frontal hairline at another clinic.

Therefore, as I discussed with the patient, our goals would be to design a hairline that would make it even from the right and left sides, and also incr
