Hi Dr. Rassman…..I have a bit of a problem and I’d like your advice. I recieved two hair transplants in the 90’s and wound up with a low hairline. I’m 32 years old and a natural norwood 3/4. I just recently removed my hairline via laser hair removal. I’m now dealing with the underlying skin which is scarred. It’s not terrible but I’m very self conscious. I’ve decided on another hair transplant. I’d like to bring the hairline down to where it was to cover any scars. I’m thinking low density with good coverage. My doc estimates that I have about 4000 donor grafts left. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
It is difficult without pictures or seeing you in person to render an opinion that has real value to you. You can excise the frontal scarred hairline (done frequently) and then have those grafts transplanted with a normal soft transition zone of 1, 2, and 3 hair units. As you are on the east coast, Dr. Robert Bernstein in NY might be worth visiting for a second opinion. If you make it out to California, I’d be happy to see you.
