Hairline Lowering Using Hair Transplant For Men and Women

 

Hair transplant surgery has become very popular among men and women in the past few years. There are many celebrities that have done hair transplants to reshape their face with optimal results. However to get the best result first the cause for the hair loss has to be determined and to find out if the client is a good candidate for surgery.

Hair transplant is a cosmetic procedure and like any other cosmetic procedure the result mostly depends on the experience and the artistry of the hair transplant surgeon. Once you have decided to do hair restoration for your hairline lowering, it is of utmost importance to find a qualified hair transplant surgeon and the right technique. You should first be evaluated by a hair restoration specialist to find out if your hair loss is progressive and if lowering hairline using hair transplant can be beneficial to you.

Once you are evaluated by a specialist, It is critical to know the facts about the cause of your hair loss, the current hair replacement surgery options and the technique used for both the recipient and the harvesting areas. New methods of surgical hair restoration can replace the lost hair in the forehead and reshape the hairline with your own natural, growing hair requiring no more care than the ordinary washing, styling, and trimming. However the natural look depends on the artistry and experience of the hair transplant doctor. The best hair line recreated by hair transplantation is one that is natural, age appropriate and blends with other facial features now and in the years to come.  It is important for the qualified hair transplant surgeon to use latest customized needles for dense packing in the frontal hair line and make the correct incisions following one's own direction and orientation of the native hair to get the most natural result. At Meshkin Medical hair restoration clinic, hairline restoration can be done so well that often a barber or hair stylist can not even tell that hair transplant procedure has been done.

Hair transplantation is a very safe, and relatively minor surgical procedure. Hair transplant is an outpatient procedure which is usually performed under local anesthesia while the patient is watching T.V, listening to music or sleeping. The procedure is done in one day and there is minimal downtime.

What you need to know about hair loss

Hair loss effects more than 6 million men and 4 million women in the United States every year.  Once the first signs of hair loss appear it could be very stressful.  Fortunately there are many treatment options  available for hair loss both medically and surgically.  In order to find out the best hair treatment options that fits the particular hair loss, the first step is to consult a hair restoration specialist.  During the consultation, the hair specialist can diagnose the cause for hair loss and give recommendations that best fits one's concerns.  If hair transplant is a viable option there are many modern techniques  available that could help restore the lost hair naturally.

Hair transplants of today have evolved through the years both in the harvesting techniques and placements of grafts into the scalp area. With FUT and FUE hair transplant harvesting techniques, patients can enjoy harvesting of thousands of units at one session, without worrying about huge scars. These harvesting methods if done by a specialized hair restoration surgeon can leave very minimal scarring that can hardly be detected and look natural.  

The recipient area preparation and placement of grafts has also gone though a transformation. Most qualified hair restoration surgeons use customized needles to make the incisions following the patients own orientation and direction of native hair. The different zones are mapped out for distribution of one, two and three hair units. Each unit is placed according to the size and orientation of hair. With this method a more dense packed hairline can be achieved using very small customized needles to make thousands of one and two hair units in the front. As the doctor starts to make the units in the mid-scalp areas more larger units are used to get more density. With precise incisions and mapping of the zones, patient can have great density as well as natural results.

Research also continues to advance in the field of stem cell therapy, hair multiplication, cell therapy, and tissue engineering, by which a single hair follicle could be turned into hundreds of thousands of hair cells or follicles in the laboratory. At the yearly meetings of ABHRS and ISHRS many hair restoration specialists present the latest developments in this field. If this method is perfected, The cells can produce infinite harvesting units which can then be placed back into the balding scalp. This phenomenon has already been proven feasible in humans, however research is still in the preliminary stages and has to be further developed in the future.

If hair transplant is not a viable option, there are many medial hair treatment options that help to regain hair and prevent future hair loss.  Most of these treatment are usually recommended at the beginning stage of hair loss.  However if hair loss is genetic most hair restoration doctors recommend that patients stay on medical hair treatment for preventive purposes.  It is best to consult a hair restoration specialist to find out the best hair treatment options that best fits a persons hair loss concerns.

How to choose the best hair restoration Doctor for your hair loss

 With the popularity of hair transplantation on the rise, so many doctors are adding hair transplant to their practice as a side job. As so many non specialized doctors start to offer hair transplant, clients wonder if all hair transplant surgeons are the same or if they differ in their practice or experience.  The question clients ask is how can one choose the most qualified doctor that offer the best hair transplant? To add to the confusion, there are many internet sites that promote doctors for a fee, so how is one to recognize a legitimate organization from a marketing site?  

Finding a qualified hair restoration doctor can be very challenging for the patient. 
Hair restoration surgery is a medical and surgical subspecialty that has matured over the decades.  By the 1990s, hair restoration surgery as a cosmetic subspecialty had matured to the position of requiring standards for assuring the highest level of knowledge and skill in practitioners of hair restoration surgery. The medical profession has such a mechanism in place-the medical specialty board that certifies qualified specialists in their elected specialty or subspecialty. Leaders of hair restoration surgery adopted the medical-board approach to certification, and organized the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery (ABHRS) in the late 1990s.

Board certification and diplomatic certification has both public and professional implications. The primary purpose of certification of medical specialists is to assure the public of a physician’s knowledge and skill. Among colleagues, certification in hair surgery by the ABHRS has implications of professional quality and standing. The requirements for certification are rigorous, and they are applied by all medical boards. The hair surgeon must pass written and oral examinations, and then recertify by passing an exam every ten years.

It is a great honor for a member to achieve this designation of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS). This recognizes the surgeon who strives for excellence in this specialized field. To maintain this status, the surgeon must continue to meet established educational criteria over time. Dr. Meshkin is one of the original 30 hair restoration surgeons to earn diploma certification by ABHRS and be recognized as an active long standing member of ISHRS for his outstanding contributions to the field of hair restoration surgery. In addition  Dr Meshkin is one of a few verified hair transplant doctors on Realself which is a recognized organization for qualified cosmetic surgeons with specialties. Dr Meshkin was one of a few who was recognized as Realself 100 doctors for 2015, 2016 and 2017 in excellence for his contribution as hair restoration doctor to the Realself community.  

In addition to these organizations, the hair restoration specialist must have knowledge and experience in all of the latest surgical and medical hair treatment options and techniques.  The specialist should be able to explain the best available options to meet the patients' concerns.   If hair transplant is a viable option, the hair restoration surgeon must show pictures of previous patients whom they have performed the techniques on.  Pictures are the most essential way to see samples of  the doctors work.  The hair specialist should be able to provide at least 20 before and after pictures from past work. 

Dr Meshkin is honored to be recognized as a designated long standing member of ISHRS by his peers and also be certified diplomat by ABHRS for his knowledge and skill as a specialized hair restoration surgeon.  he is also a verified Hair restoration specialist on Realself.  Clients can see hundreds of before and after photos on ww.meshkinmedical.com on yelp and follow him on social media sites such as Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin and TikTok.

Seasonal Hair cycle and normal hair loss

One of the most frequently asked questions asked is if the amount of hair loss is normal or abnormal. To answer that question we have to examine the clients degree of hair loss and hair count loss during a range of time periods.  Some hair loss could be seasonal and due to normal hair cycle, therefore a thorough evaluation is necessary to find the cause and its normality.

Throughout lifespan, we lose hair everyday as hair follicles go through their normal cyclic activity. The average normal number of scalp hair loss due to its natural cyclic process is between 80-100 strands. If the hair is healthy and heredity is not a factor, then these hair s will be replaced and the hair loss will not be noticeable.  The first warning signs of extreme hair loss or baldness appear when excessive amounts of hair fall out when one is showering or brushing hair.  A more advanced sign of creeping baldness is a definite recession of hairline or Androgenetic alopecia,  This is a form of genetic thinning which accounts for the most common cause of hair loss.

During fall and winter seasons with cold, dry weather hair loss could worsen due to dietary changes, stress, or other factors. Cold air combined with the drying effects of central heat can result in brittle ends and fragile strands that break easily. If your hair is already damaged, the drying effect will further cause it to fall off. In addition, the cold weather can affect the overall health of your scalp and make the hair more brittle. To make the hair less brittle, hair masks and natural hair treatments could help.

As opposed to cold weather hair loss, losing hair during warm weather is usually normal. In the same way that many animals shed, it is normal for the human body to regulate temperature with the loss of unneeded extra hair. For some people though, the heat and intense summer sun can cause additional dryness on the scalp just like in the winter time. In both cold and warm conditions, if the scalp or the hair shaft is dry, the hair becomes brittle and starts to fall off.

 Even if the hair is predetermined to eventually lose hair, there are several steps that can be taken to slow down the progress of hair loss. For starters once extreme shedding occurs, one need not wait for evidence of substantial permanent hair loss. It is best to seek the advice of a hair loss specialist who will diagnose  the cause for the hair loss and recommend a medical treatment option to slow down or reverse hair loss at its earliest stage.

Dr. Mike Meshkin, a hair transplant specialist based in Los Angeles and Orange County with more that 25 years of experience has been in forefront of advancements in the field of hair restoration.  He can make an evaluation using devices that help determine the cause of hair loss and predict the future progression. Once the cause of hair loss is established the proper treatment options are recommended to reverse or slow down future hair loss. He gives many pieces of advice to his clients to start hair loss prevention when they notice thinning at the initial stages. If hair loss is genetic, then hair transplant can be an option to restore the hair that is lost and medical treatment is used to prevent future hair loss and keep hair healthy.
