I’ve had two poor hair transplants in 2003 and 2004 and I am at my wits end. Unfortunately, I did not do enough research and have just found your organization. I am hoping to repair my hair line to make it look more natural than it does now. I still have a lot of donor hair but definitely need a touch up to make things appear less obvious. Where do I go from here?- Ted

Dear Ted,

Much has changed since 2003 and 2004 in respect to hairlines. Correct hairline creation is based on anatomic markers and artistry. Every head is shaped differently, however the anatomical apex and temporal points are consistent. Once consistent anatomical markers are found then the hairline is created. To look natural, the hairline is gradually thickened by a technique called feathering. Single hair grafts are used to outline the front hairline and thicker grafts are blended behind this front border. The hairline is not created straight and rounded but irregular-what some call a snail tract. Even the differences in the hair shaft thickness is utilized in proper hairline creation with the most thin hairs placed in the very front. Read the Story
