The Importance of Being Cautious with Hairline Hair Removal - Hair Transplant

Some men and women undergo laser hair removal treatments because their hairline is severely asymmetrical or unbalanced, or because they want to make their forehead appear less narrow. However, after the procedure, they often experience more awkward hairline shapes, loss of baby hairs at the front, and associated hair loss, which eventually leads them to seek hairline correction surgery. Therefore, it is advisable to carefully consider this decision beforehand.

Hairline hair removal procedures destroy the hair follicles within the scalp using lasers. This often removes not only the targeted hairs but also surrounding baby hairs and fine hairs, resulting in an unnatural, doll-like hairline.

The destruction of baby hair follicles and the start of coarse hairs at the front can make the hairline appear awkward, leading some individuals to end up covering their foreheads more than before.
