Hairline Question

[BlackAmish111]

Curious if people who have had hairline restoration done had their new grafts planted all the way and somewhat 'emeshed' into their receding hairline? Meaning, I'm 2 months in and can see the new darkening on the 'line' that will be my new hairline yet there is most definitely some empty scalp space in between the two. I'll try to get pics up soon but I know Ive seen many recent patient pics here in which the little red dots went fully into their old hairline and its got me a bit worried...

Well, with you approaching your mid-forties and being a NW3, I am a little surprised that the did not go into your whole hairline, however, it is always better to go too high than to go too low.

 

In this photo, you can see where the line of my transplant is and how there is some native hair below it. I could have probably went a tiny tad higher. There is nothing wrong at all with transplanting above native hair.

My lowered hairline is not enmeshed into my old hairline but given the curly texture of my hair, any gap will probably be unnoticable. It wouldn't have made sense to overlap since my hairline is fully dense (no loss) and it would have been over-packed. I assume this could also be a consideration for others with strong hairlines.

You have no choice but to wait and see what happens. You can always do a little touch up if necessary.
