How to Determine the Right Hairline?

Single hair grafts are used to create a natural hairline. Planning the hairline is one of the most important steps of hair transplantation. The hairline is the most visible landmark, and the quality of a surgeon's work is often judged by the quality of the hairline. To find the ideal hairline in a bald patient, as Michaelangelo suggested, it is necessary to divide the face into three equal parts. The edges of the hairline should be parallel to the curve when the person is looking straight ahead. The temporal angle should form relatively sharp right angles or acute angles in most men, but these angles should be more rounded in women. Hairline shape also changes according to the variation of face shape. The patient's wishes and limitations are also other factors that may affect the shape of the hairline.

Even though age is not an obstacle for hair transplantation, the pros and cons of transplantation should be carefully evaluated in young patients. Patients between the ages of 20 and 30 should have a stable rate of hair loss before being considered for hair transplant. A detailed family history is helpful in evaluating hair loss and planning a new hairline. The color, quality and density of the donor hair and the contrast between hair and skin color are important factors that affect the result.
