Cost for fixing hairline

[dre90]

I ´m 27 years old, and want to lower my hairline on both sides of the front like I ´ve sketched up on the picture. I ´ve got pretty thick hair, so it ´s not much that is needed (just to fill in the place between the drawed line and my hairline, and on the other side), but I ´m wondering if anyone has had similar transplants? How much (circa) will it cost me? I ´m not doing any surgery before I ´ve turned 30, in case I lose any hair, but I ´m planning to do it sometime, so it would be nice to be prepared for how much it would cost me.

I'd say you require approx 1000 grafts to fill in your temples...

Cost will vary depending on which method you employ.....its worth contacting preferred clinics for an online consult

Rather than assuming are you male or female as you have drawn a female hairline?

Haha, the hairline was drawn quickly, so it ´s not accurately how I want it to be. It was mostly to show how much I want I need to transplant I ´m a guy, and I can see what you mean. But as I said, it was meant to show circa how much that is needed.

Which method is considered the best? And does anyone know an average cost?

Hope you didn't take offence but just wanted to make you aware. If you look at male hairlines for guys in their 30's and 40's they all have some recession into the temples like you have now so at this stage I would not do anything. As you are looking for a few years time then unless things change drastically then I would recommend FUE and no more than 1000 grafts like Tommytwo says.
Of course in a few years time this may change. Depending on where you go in the world you can pay anywhere between £3000 to £6000. I would see if Regaine can hold onto what you have it is worth a try.
Good luck.

Of course not, and thanks for the advice!

There is also the matter of whether or not anything else would need to be done to compensate for the new temple work. By filling your temples you're altering the facial dynamics and it may not look "right" if your hairline is too high. You look like you may have a slightly high hairline based on the limited visual cues presented but if that is the case then hairline lowering would be necessary to properly compliment the temples being filled. If that winds up being the case then you would need to potentially double the estimate you've been given so far.


I agree with David regarding your current status. Don't waste your money chasing something that may wind up being a mistake. If this is the worst your temples will be, you're better off than most.

Thanks for the feedback! I know the temple ´s aren ´t too bad, but I ´m pretty sure that filling them a bit would make it easier for me to style my haircut as I want it, and that it would suit my face better. Some men fits those temples, but I ´m pretty sure that having them lowered would suit me better. But of course, it ´s not any crisis, and I ´m not sure yet if I ´ll do anything about it. But I appreciate your feedback. Btw, the angle of the picture may make the hairline look higher than it is. It ´s mainly on the sides the hairline is a bit high. But it ´s not really hair loss, it has always been like that. I ´ve just considered changing it a bit if it ´s not too expensive. Would save some time shaping the hair as I want it every day.
