The majority of patients who come to our Medical Facility are seeking to reverse a receding hairline and frontal hair loss, says (Director
of Medical Procedures and Surgical Operations).
"The first image you see of a person is their frontal view or profile” When the
hairline is receding, it can make a man look older”.
Medical Director said that by rebuilding a hairline and frontal hair
loss with follicular unit hair transplants, Their Board Certified Physicians and Medical Staff can help patients look much younger
than their hair loss makes them seem.
"Establishing a new hairline gives them the ability to look younger”, he said. "It can
take 5 to 10 years off a person's appearance”.
When it comes to rebuilding the hairline with hair grafts, Medical Director explained
that they use 1 and 2 hair follicular units to create a "soft" hairline edge. This new hairline edge takes approximately 150-200 small
follicular units to complete from left temple to right temple. The follicular units are implanted in a staggered fashion like:. -
. - . - . - . - . Implanting the new grafts in a non-staggered straight line like: . . . . . . and would appear unnatural when the
new hair grows in.
"Scalp hair doesn't grow any smaller then 1 hair”, Medical Director said. The result of this new
soft hairline is a natural and undetectable result.
Once the Board Certified Physicians and Medical Team has established a new
hairline, more follicular units are implanted behind the new hairline and along the frontal and mid-scalp region.
When deciding
where to begin the new hairline, Medical Director said a patient should place their four fingers sideways against their
forehead with their "pinkie" finger at the bottom. The pinkie finger should touch the bridge of the nose, between the eyebrows. The
new hairline will then start where the index finger ends at the top of the forehead.
Like most hair transplant professionals, Medical
Director said he doesn't like to position the hairline too low. "It doesn't look good or natural to have a hairline like a teenager
or a 20 year old unless you are experiencing premature hair loss as a teenager”.
