Can a Hair Transplant Create a Hairline in the Front Area?

Frontal hairline loss, commonly known as a receding hairline, is a familiar concern often seen in men due to their genetic makeup, aging, stress, or conditions like hair-pulling disorder, iron deficiency, and thyroid disease. At SB Trichology, a hair loss expert can address such a concern to some extent by delaying hair loss or restoring the lost hair with hair transplant surgery in Gurgaon.

What is a frontal hair transplant?

A hairline transplant or frontal hair transplant is a surgery that can help correct a receding hairline, disproportionate hairline, or high forehead. The surgery goal is to restore hair to the front and temples by transferring healthy hair follicles from the hair-dense area of the scalp- the donor zone, typically the back or sides of the head. It can help create an appealing, youthful, more balanced facial profile.

To execute a hair transplant in the front area, there are two common techniques: Follicular Unit Strip Surgery/ Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUSS/FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). In FUT, the surgeon makes a thin, linear incision at the back of the scalp to harvest a strip of hair-bearing skin. This is further dissected under the microscope to extract individual hair follicles. For FUE, the surgeon uses a micro punch tool to directly extract the individual hair follicles. Single, donor hair follicles are often placed at specific angles into the small incisions created in the front hairline and the temporal triangles to create uneven zigzag patterns just like the natural hairline. Multiple hair follicle placement and angulations are usually done in the back rows where there is a need for dense hair. To ensure a natural transition from the forehead to the scalp, a hair transplant surgeon can even transplant hair in an extended hairline region- slightly behind the front area.

For the creation of a natural-looking hairline that complements the facial features of an individual, it’s crucial to choose the right hair transplant surgeon. The surgeon should have the art, skill, and experience of designing and creating hairlines after considering the patient's preferences and factors like hair density, direction or existing pattern of natural hair growth, and the overall face shape/structure.
