The risks concerning hairline lowering surgery are very minimal and mostly the same risks that you would expect from undergoing any form of surgery. However, it is still important that you are fully informed, and your surgeon will discuss any concerns you may have during your consultation. You may experience:
Bleeding during or after surgery
Side effects of general anaesthesia
Infection of the incision area
Potential scarring after the incision heals
You should feel minimal discomfort and pain during the procedure, and you will be provided with expert aftercare advice to ensure your recovery is comfortable. As with all types of hair transplants, it is important to follow the aftercare advice correctly as this will minimise the chance of the transplant failing and help you achieve the optimum results you want.
