An individual’s original hairline usually cannot be restored with hair restoration surgery unless they have experienced only minimal recession of their hairline. The benefits of improving the definition of the hairline and improving the density of the hair at the top of the head are significant. However, the number of hair follicles required to push a hairline forward is so immense that there are usually insufficient hair follicles available to transplant to restore the hairline and improve density behind it in a natural way. A frank, detailed discussion with your surgeon is essential to understand the results achievable with hair restoration surgery. A skilled, fellowship-trained facial plastic surgeon such as Dr. Jeffrey Harmon can provide a natural hairline result that fits the individual’s face.
