I Had a Hair Transplant, But I Want the Corners Lower Than “Normal”

Hello, I had 1200 grafts last year, and they have done well, but the hairline is too far back in the corners. It is probably just fine for most men, but I wanted a more rounded hairline. I think that I got the male “template.” I have a widows peak, it does not, nor the area of about 1 inch to either side, need to be lowered, just the area in the corners. I have heard of hair line advancement, could this help? Most literature says that all men should look the same, as it comes to hairlines, its just not what I want. I travel to Sacramento and San Jose frequently. Hope to hear from you.

Picking a hairline is a negotiation between you and your surgeon. I have restored the original hairline in men and if this is part of your Master Plan, then it can be done. Be sure to get a great doctor, because these rounded corners can be a difficult part of the art of hair restoration.

Here’s Patient NU, whom I have featured on this site previously. The corners of his hairline were lowered dramatically and the patient wanted his central frontal hairline to look like actor Andy Garcia. Each of us has a different look and different taste, thank God. If we did not, then the world would be farily dull. The patient shown below had let his hair grow out to shoulder length for a number of years, and then recently cut it to crew cut length. He clearly enjoys the freedom of having his hair just the way he wants. Also, it is worth noting that he had temple transplants many years ago, and his results are available here and here.

Other examples include patients EO, KB, and IU.
