Hair Transplant Repair: Correcting an Unnatural Hairline
This is a repair case. The goal: remove the large, multi-hair grafts that were placed directly in the hairline.
A natural hairline requires single-hair follicular units. Period. The design also needs to match the patient’s ethnic background and facial structure.
His original hairline had multiple problems. It sat too low. It was too broad. And it had that unmistakable “pluggy” look.
The work from his initial surgeon screamed hair transplant. That’s the opposite of what good restoration should do.
Great results are subtle. People shouldn’t recognize a procedure. They should just think, “You look better… but what changed?”
Here’s something that might surprise you: this wasn’t work from an overseas clinic. This came from the United States.
Fixing it required multiple plug-removal sessions spread over several years. We had to address the most unnatural grafts first before we could even think about rebuilding.
Now that the problematic grafts are out, we’re focused on reconstructing his hairline the right way. Carefully. Strategically.
But here’s the challenge: we have to work in small sessions. His donor supply is limited.
We’re walking a tightrope. Every graft matters. We need to maximize cosmetic improvement today while preserving enough for future needs.
We’re deeply grateful to this patient for sharing both his results and his journey. This has been a long, uphill battle.
His story is a powerful reminder: research matters. The right planning makes all the difference. And when it comes to changing your appearance, choosing the right surgeon is everything.
