Results Posted By Dr. James Vogel - Hairline Lowering


Recommended Posts

  • Senior Member

This woman was interested in a lower hair line and smaller forehead. We discussed hair transplantation versus a formal hair line lowering operation. She chose the latter procedure as it was a one stage and immediate improvement that took 2 hours to perform. There is a scar at the hairline but in most cases the healing is sufficiently excellent to be inconspicuous. In some cases patients have a follow up small transplant to camouflage the scar or lower the hairline further. This result is seen at 3 months following the procedure. Her hairline was lowered by 2cm. No transplants were done. This case is submitted to illustrate another option to hair transplants in selected patients.

I have to say this looks great improvement on this patient.

 

I would think perhaps this procedure is ideally for women though.?

 

Although I would love to have my own lowered a little bit. I would be afraid of progressive thinning in the front exposing a scar. Which I imagine would be even far worse than than a back of head scar exposed.

 

Would be good to see some pics of the scarring left behind. I would assume a buzz or short cut would be ruled out also post this op.
