Senior Member shiba1985 Posted January 30 Senior Member Share Posted January 30 If you have the luxury to I guess you can go lower. Most hair transplant patients don't have enough grafts required over a lifetime to lower it that much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most hair transplant patients don't have enough grafts required over a lifetime to lower it that much when i did the hairtransplant the surgery at the beginning draw my hairline almost as in the picture i uplod but the dilemma was that this hairline maybe is too much low and we should go up, at last i decided to make it higher as it is right now and if i will regret in the future to come back to make it lower now i still not sure if to do it or no but i just wanted to hear how much graft will need in case i decide to do it btw i have good donor area and in my hairtransplant i did less than 2000 grafts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Stoner Posted January 30 Regular Member Share Posted January 30 You can measure the distance from the current hairline to the glabella. If it is less than 6cm it is definitely a no-go. My assumption judging from the pic is that it is indeed already less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Stoner Posted January 30 Regular Member Share Posted January 30 You can find out the number of grafts by calculating the are of the rectangle/trapezium that you want covered and assume each cm2 will need around 40-50 grafts depending on the surgeon. I think the 800 grafts estimate previously mentioned should be about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the distance from the glabella to my correct hairline right now is 7 cm so maybe i can go a little bit more lower thank you stoner for the informative answer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member jjalay Posted January 31 Regular Member Share Posted January 31 the hairline you have drown is way too low. You should talk to a doctor abour corrective surgery with other tools if you want to make it look better. Dont proceed with lowering your hairline even further, this wont age nice.

The said distance being less than 7cm is I would say a necessary but not a sufficient condition for having a HT. Whether your hairline is high would depend on the rest of your facial features and dimensions which can be probably be best assessed by a HT surgeon in person. Also, I assume that you are young. It is therefore crucial for you to be on medication to halt your hair loss and possibly have some regrowth-more important imo than getting another HT. After being on meds for 12-18 months, you can reassess the hairline and see what you have gained. If it still bothers you you can then go for minor touch-up, this is my advice. Remember, your donor supply is finite, so please don't rush! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted February 1 Valued Contributor Share Posted February 1 @abcd your existing hairline is definitely low enough. Having surgery to make it even lower will make the hairline look unnatural and will stick out.

Moderators Al - Moderator Posted February 1 Moderators Share Posted February 1 To me it looks like it would be too low with the line drawn.

Dont proceed with lowering your hairline even further, this wont age nice. you mean to talk with doctor about change the desgin of the hairline by a few grafts? the problem is that in my correct hairline as you can see under the middle of the hairline there are some hairs that still grow, and it make my hair line not look straight and clean.. so i have to shave them every time and its bother me when it grow again its make the hairline not look good and fresh and one more thing, my natural hairline was lower so its feels me a little bit wired this high of the hairline while i do short haircut On 2/1/2024 at 2:08 AM, Stoner said: You are welcome!

Regular Member YodaHead Posted February 4 Regular Member Share Posted February 4 I would definitely not change your existing hairline. It looks fine. If you are going to bring it lower, you will have to densly pack it. Why waste the grafts just to make it look bad? If the few hair that you have below the existing hairline are bothering you, may be look into removing those grafts and place them to your existing hairline. 12.5k grafts with Dr. Felipe Pitella in Jan 2024.

If the few hair that you have below the existing hairline are bothering you, may be look into removing those grafts and place them to your existing hairline. first of all i consider it because i didn't used alot of grafts for my first HT ( they took from me 1900 grafts) and i'm 31 years old and have strong donor area, and one more thing, although that i cant know what will be my hairloss in the future, i still can say that my hairloss from 23 years old till today was stable. and of course i look at my family hairloss too. anyway, you said that it possible to took off the grafts that bother me out without scarring the place where they are ? i didn't know about it, is it really can be?

Moderators Al - Moderator Posted February 4 Moderators Share Posted February 4 If it's really bothering you then perhaps think about doing a small session to get more of a V type of hairline to just bring the center down slightly to cover those scattered hairs in the front.
