Hair Transplant Results: Receding Hairline Before and After
Receding hairlines are among the most common problems our clients experience. If you’ve noticed your hairline starting to creep higher or feel dissatisfied with your natural hairline, you are far from alone.
KSL Clinic’s experienced hair transplant surgeons consult with thousands of clients, both men and women, of all ages. We often work with celebrities, professional sports people and those who work in the public eye and depend on their confidence and appearance.
While receding hairlines are commonly linked to ageing, it’s also something you do not have to put up with, especially if your hairline impacts your self-esteem or doesn’t enable you to achieve the aesthetic you aspire to.
Potential Causes of a Receding Hairline
As we’ve indicated, receding hairlines are often genetic. If older family members have had a receding hairline or seen changes to their hair growth and thickness, it is fairly likely that your hair will change in the same way.
However, in some cases, a receding hairline can impact a client without any family history. Some of the possible reasons may include:
- Hormonal changes: Although receding hairlines affect more men than women, the problem is far from exclusive to men. Hormonal changes can trigger pattern hair loss in any gender, including during periods of life such as menopause and postpartum or for people with thyroid conditions.
- Alopecia areata: This medical condition causes hair loss, often beginning around the edges of the scalp and creating a receding hairline. It can also prompt hair loss around the crown, eyebrows and a loss of facial hair.
- Reactions to medications: Some medications cause unforeseen side effects, which can exacerbate early signs of a receding hairline or trigger hair to begin receding earlier than it otherwise might.
- Stress: High-stress levels can cause telogen effluvium, which means hair begins to shed, sometimes rapidly. Although the condition is often short-term and self-corrects, this may depend on the extent of hair loss.
Lifestyle factors are also sometimes connected to a receding hairline. Just as a lack of vitamins or minerals can affect the health of your scalp and hair, smoking can have a negative impact and is connected to a higher risk of androgenetic alopecia, also known as male and female pattern baldness.
How to Correct a Receding Hairline
There are several options if you have a receding hairline and are unhappy with how this looks. Most clients we speak with have already tried various, often costly, medications, supplements, hair loss shampoos and treatments, many of which have limited or minimal effects – and none that can reverse a receding hairline once the hairline has already changed.
We’ve outlined our Follicular Unit Extraction hair transplantation technique below and often recommend it as a pain-free and permanent solution to a receding hairline. The transplant procedure is completed in just one day.
The first step is a consultation with our accomplished hair transplant surgeons. We’ll assess the health of your scalp and hair, appraise the extent to which your hair has receded, and confirm whether we believe a hair transplant will achieve the right results.
Hair transplants to correct a receding hairline can also be combined with post-transplant therapies such as plasma-rich platelet therapy, a clinical treatment where we extract and reinject valuable plasma into the target area, stimulating dormant follicles and expediting the hair transplant recovery process.
KSL Clinic’s Hair Transplant Procedure to Fix a Receding Hairline
FUE hair transplantation is safe, effective and minimally invasive, without stitches, incisions or visible scarring. The transplant technique works by:
- Extracting individual follicles from donor sites, using microscopic scratches to remove the healthy donor hair, and reimplant it in the desired area.
- Using precision grading to appraise the thickness, texture, growth direction, and colour of every hair before reimplanting it in a preconfigured pattern.
Clients can attend a receding hairline transplant on a walk-in, walk-out basis, returning home the same day and with a high-quality local anaesthetic to ensure the process is pain-free and as comfortable as possible.
The results, as you can see from our gallery, are astonishing. We use your own donor hairs to create a hairline that is 100% natural and perfectly matches the growth and characteristics of the rest of your hair.
Results Achievable Through a Receding Hairline Hair Transplant
One of the primary reasons clients come to KSL Clinic for hair transplantation to address a receding hairline is confidence. A full, thick, and youthful hairline can instantly boost self-esteem and ensure that your outward appearance matches your personality.
You are welcome to visit our extensive testimonials and reviews to understand how hair transplantation has impacted so many clients.
The results of an FUE hair transplant are permanent, and we support clients from initial consultation and throughout the recovery and hair regrowth process, providing complete aftercare guidance, regular check-ins and reviews to ensure the transplanted follicles are growing well.
Our private hair transplant clinics use cutting-edge facilities, precision equipment and the highest standards of client care to achieve these outcomes and tailor your hair transplant to your requirements.
Choosing the Right Time to Correct a Receding Hairline
We advise contacting your nearest KSL Clinic at any point, whether you’ve had a receding hairline for some time and are exploring the solutions available or have recently noticed that your hairline is receding and want to take decisive action.
It’s often far easier to correct a receding hairline before hair loss becomes more severe, ensuring there are plenty of healthy donor follicles in other discreet areas of your scalp we can use to replenish your hair and achieve the results you are hoping for.
Initial consultations are entirely free of charge. You’ll have the opportunity to meet with one of our sector-leading hair transplant surgeons and skilled technicians, discuss your expectations and the hair transplant procedure, and ask as many questions as you wish.
