Hair Transplant

Different hairlines

When to Transplant hair to the head and deciding where to place one's new hairline one must take into account where one's muscle attachment sits. Therefore, there is a limitation on how low you can set your hairline, although visually it may look good to set a relatively low hairline, it can make your hair move when you talk or grimace.

Which one suits you?

There are different types of hairpins that affect one's appearance and hairstyle. The most common types are M-shaped, V-shaped and straight hairline. M-shaped hairline has a clear bulge in the middle of the forehead and is commonly found. V-shaped hairline is more tapered and resembles the letter “V”. Straight hairline is characterized by a smooth line across the forehead without any deep bulges. It is important to choose a hairstyle that suits your hairline shape for best results.

DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is a modern method of hair transplantation that we use in the clinic where the hair follicles are implanted directly with high precision. It gives a natural result and is particularly suitable for shaping or recreating the hairline.

If you are not sure what type of hairline is right for you, or if you are wondering how a hair transplant can help you — come to us and we will help you. We analyze your hairline, review your goals and create an individual plan that will give you a natural and sustainable result.

Masculine hairline

A male hairline usually has slight curves in at the high bays or is a bit more “boxy”. How deep you want the curves to go is usually compared to how old you are as a natural hairline gets deeper folds over the years.

Maximum intervention in hair transplantation in men

The amount of intervention you can do on men usually depends on how good quality you have in your donor area. Some people have larger areas with good grafts and others have smaller ones. In some cases, you have lost a lot of hair while having an incredibly fine donor area. In other cases, we do a max procedure of 3,500 grafts and then plan in a second hair transplant at least 6 months later to fill out the rest.

Feminine hairline

The female hairline usually does not change as much as men's as you get older, but it often stays the same even it can creep back a little. However, it is common

Maximum intervention in female hair transplants

A max intervention for women with thin hair is often restricted due to visual reasons as most people want to be able to cover over the shaved sensor area.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, we usually do not do transplants above 2,000 grafts. Apart from that, there are no medical differences when it comes to men's and women's maxillofacial procedures.
