What this case tells you, and what it doesn’t
- Lowering the hairline uses more grafts than keeping it where it is, so it should be weighed against how much donor hair will be needed later.
- 6 months is an early checkpoint. Transplanted hair keeps growing and thickening for 12 to 18 months, so this is not yet the final result.
- This is a clinic-selected result. Clinics publish their strongest outcomes, so compare it with independent patient diaries before deciding.
Questions to ask if you’re considering this clinic
- Who performs each step: the incisions, the extraction and the implantation?
- How many grafts are planned for each area, and what density does that give?
- What does aftercare include, and how is the 12-month follow-up done?
