Senior Member HairNTear Posted December 31, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted December 31, 2020 Hi Guys, i have had 2 FUE procedures totaling 2500 grafts in an attempt to lower my hairline as was born with very high forehead and had some temple session. After the first procedure it looked fairly natural but was in need of more density. The “Doctor” was hardly involved at all in the procedure and they ended up placing many multiple grafts right at the front of the hairline, some with 4 hairs growing out of the same graft!! Not to mention the hairline has no irregular irregularities and the angles are extremely obtuse!! Overall it is a pluggy appearance. It has cost me a lot of distress as I am constantly self conscious of people staring at my hairline Wanted to ask if anyone had any advice on the best repair surgeons for creating natural hairlines? Any help appreciated! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Britanium Posted December 31, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted December 31, 2020 Personally I think Dr Bisanga @sldoes some good repair work, as does HDC @Doron Harati. More recently I have seen some great cases from @DrTBarghouthiwho has just recently been added to the forums recommended list. So many choices though, check out the forums recommended physician link! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Doron Harati Posted December 31, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted December 31, 2020 @deitel130, the first clinic in Turkey overharvested 5000 grafts from my donor and scared me forever with no growth. For my repair procedure at HDC, Dr. Maras used 2556 grafts. 2 Doron Harati - Patient coordinator for HDC Hair Clinic, HT procedures are done by MD Doctors with Microscope FUE.

Senior Member HairNTear Posted December 31, 2020 Author Senior Member Share Posted December 31, 2020 Sorry guys, forgot to add pics, please see below. I’m not sure if they show just how bad it is in person but hopefully you can see the see through effect that the multi grafts, blunted temple hairline design and strange angles have. Thanks for all your advice so far and congrats on your repair @Doron Harati, looks fantastic! I was thinking of getting the repair done by Dr Cooley or maybe Dr Shapiro. what are your thoughts on these doctors? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Britanium Posted December 31, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted December 31, 2020 They are very good Drs, both recommended on the forum. Have you been checking out their results ? Just wondering why they are the ones standing out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member HairNTear Posted December 31, 2020 Author Senior Member Share Posted December 31, 2020 Yes I had looked at some repair cases and their ability to create soft natural hairlines. I think in my case some grafts need to be extracted, do you know if doctors fue these and reuse or do they tend to just laser them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in my case some grafts need to be extracted, do you know if doctors fue these and reuse or do they tend to just laser them? We tend to FUE anything that stands out and can be recycled into a more appropriate location. In some cases when the hairline is too dense or too low, laser will be needed as extraction of too many follicles closely can leave obvious scarring. The key to repair is to try to achieve a nice result with moving some grafts around, refining the hairline and not risking any obvious scarring. 3 2 Dr. Taleb Barghouthi approved and recommended on the Hair Transplant Network.

Just type repair in the "search folder" and opt for "titles only".

GNX1 Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Dr. Maras (HDC) is ur guy period. Forget everyone else. Just fly out and get it done right. Dr. Nadar in Southern Texas (Mexican border in Mexico) would be my second choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, Konior comes to my mind (there is a nice step-by-step repair over several years) in here as well. But he is expensive. I assume there are others as well, but as I am from Europe my overview is better at this side of the ocean 🙂 1 400+ grafts in 2018 and 2900 grafts in 2020 via FUE with Feriduni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted January 4, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 4, 2021 Dr. Cooley and Shapiro are both excellent choices. I think they would easily be able to refine this result. I will say this, it honestly isn’t that bad, a little too straight. But it would be easy to fix.

Senior Member aaron1234 Posted January 7, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 7, 2021 This is an easy fix, but only in the best of hands. I'd definitely consult with Dr. Shapiro since hairlines are his speciality. I think you'll need to punch out (via FUE) some of the poorly angled grafts on the sides, but fortunately I don't see too many multi-haired grafts in the hairline. The frontal tuft needs a boost in density, and the hairline is a bit too straight. But again, this wouldn't be a difficult case for the docs you're consulting with. 1 Dr. G: 1,000 grafts (FUT) 2008 Dr. Paul Shapiro: 2,348 grafts (FUT) 2009 ~ 1,999 grafts (FUT) 2011 ~ 300 grafts (Scar Reduction) 2013 Dr. Konior: 771 grafts (FUT) 2015 ~ 558 grafts (FUT) 2017 ~ 1,124 grafts (FUE) 2020 My Hair Transplant Journey with Shapiro Medical Group Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Aaron, I completely agree with your analysis and your right, it takes a great Doctor to get the details spot on and make things come together to look natural. I wasn’t aware Dr Shapiro was well known for hairlines specifically? Have you had a chance to check out Dr Cooley, if so what do you think of his work on this area?

Senior Member aaron1234 Posted January 8, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 8, 2021 Oh yeah, Dr. Shapiro is renowned for his hairlines. Dr. Cooley is great as well, definitely consult with both!
