Hair Loss InformationHow Common Are Receding Hairlines in Women? – Balding Blog
My hairline is starting to look like my son’s hairline as the frontal part in the mid-line has gone up about 1/2 inch and my corners have disappeared creating a V shape to my hairline. I am 52 years old.
Women’s hairlines often rise up to an inch as the woman get older. Menopause accentuated the hair loss process and it is reported than about 50% of women past menopause, lose their hair and are balding to some degree. This could be seen as thinning, a risking hairline, disappearance of the corner hairline, overall thinning in the front, top and crown of the head.
New Hair Institute Female Temple Corner Rounding 1000 grafts – 7 MONTHS Post Op
I am assuming that this lady has seen these changes recently. She is of menopausal age. The normal female hairline is located on the crease of the furrowed brow; however, as the hairline in women rise with age, it may rise as much as a full inch from the crease of the furrowed brow in the mid-line. Additionally, the corners of the frontal hairline often becomes thinner with age taking on the shape of the male’s mature hairline as this lady is reporting.
In women who have plastic surgery of the face, hairlines and frontal corners are often impacted with hair loss. Brow lifts induce frontal loss and lift the frontal hairline back, increasing the size of the forehead. Is is very common to see frontal corner hair loss after facelifts and brow lifts. We commonly get referrals from plastic surgeons for women who complain about the hairline changes with their facelifts.
Hair transplants can address hairline issues reasonably well and lower the frontal hairline back to the crease of the furrowed brow. The corners can also be filled in with hair transplants.
Hair Loss InformationDo you recommend FUE in women? – Balding Blog
I need a hair transplant but don’t want any pain. I am told that the strip surgery is more painful than the FUE. Can a women have an FUE?
Many women have had FUE done very successfully.Some people are better candidates than others regardless of gender. The FUE has little pain associated with it by the next day. For a large session, the FUE requires a large exposure to the donor area which means we need to shave some areas in the back and sides of the head.We try to do this in inconspicuous areas. This is accomplished by shaving the scalp in stripes so that shaved areas are covered with the hair from above. See our NewHair.com website on FUE. We have also done long hair FUE that does not require any shaving, however, we generally do not do this for more than 400 FUE grafts. Strip surgery can have more pain due to the area of the strip being excised but the majority of people find it very manageable with proper medication. Some people get by with over the counter medications and a few may need something stronger.
Any area of scalp that is used for a strip surgery requires an area 4 times larger for an FUE because only one out of 4 follicular units are removed at a surgery. A large shaved area is required for a procedure as large as 1000-2000 FUE grafts. If shaving your scalp is not a problem, then FUE is a good alternative choice.
I chose to have a strip surgery instead of FUE for my hair transplants. I did not find that the strip produced significant pain. Pain management has come along way and was very well managed.
Hair Loss InformationFemale Hairline Lowering and Rounding surgery – Balding Blog
Following patient had a hair transplant surgery at New Hair Institute. The photos show 5 Days and 7 Months post op. Full results will be assessed at 12 months as more hairs may grow. There was 1000 grafts transplanted and you can see the rounding and a change in the forehead shape. We generally inform our patients results are variable and that 2 surgeries may be desired for added density (but not necessary). In this patient, the hair was very fine, so a second procedure will be necessary if she wants more fullness.

Using Different Minoxidil Strengths – Hair Loss Information – Balding Blog
I am a 23 Female, I have been losing hair for 2 years now. My dermatologist prescribed minoxidil 2%, but after 4 months i didn’t see any results. Is it safe to use both 2% and 5% (2% in the morning and 5% at night) to make it more effective?
Thanks
In general we advise our female patients to use minoxidil 5% twice a day, although the official recommended dose is 2%. We take the blood pressure of the patient prior to prescribing this medication. Although this medication can be purchased directly from any pharmacy or grocery store, there are side effects that you must read about prior to starting the medication.

Can Norlevo (Morning After Pill) Cause Hair Loss? – Hair Loss Information – Balding Blog
Hello.
I took Norlevo (morning after pill) 15 days ago and now I have noticed that my hair is falling out. How long will this last? Is there anyway to stop it?
Thank you.
The morning after pill is a hormone similar to what you find in a birth control pill. Birth control pills could possibly cause hair loss in rare instances. I can not tell you if that if your hair loss is related to the pill (Norlevo). It may be due to stress in general as well. You need to follow up with your doctor for an exam.
