Female Central Hairline Hair Transplant Case | Overhead Record of Forehead Proportions

Women 30s Female

A Taiwanese woman in her 30s, mainly concerned about the position of her central hairline and the proportions of her forehead, came to Dr. Wen-Yi Wu for a hair transplant assessment. She hoped to discuss a suitable plan starting from the forehead midline and its extension to both sides. The slider below uses a fixed overhead view of the forehead, focusing on the central hairline and the upper edge of the forehead.

This case focuses on "the central hairline and forehead proportions" rather than the side temples. The actual area, technique and graft allocation still need to be assessed by the doctor in person, based on the position of the central line, native hair distribution, hair flow, face shape and donor supply at the back of the scalp.

How Is Central Hairline Proportion Read from Above?

The overhead angle reduces the influence of hairstyle on the frontal outline, showing more clearly the central hairline position, the upper edge of the forehead and how it extends to each side. The photos were calibrated to head proportions, the nasal midline and hairline height to keep the focus on the central area.

Drag to compare

This is a photo record of a single case and does not mean everyone will achieve the same result. Between the two photo sessions, hair length, styling, head angle, camera equipment, distance and lighting were not exactly the same, which affects how the hairline and scalp appear. Actual recovery and hair growth also vary from person to person.

Can a Central Hairline Simply Follow a Fixed Height?

A single height or fixed ratio should not simply be applied. The position of the central point needs to suit forehead width, face shape, native hair flow and the blend with both sides, while also allowing for future hair loss and available donor supply.

Want to assess your central hairline and forehead proportions?

Results vary between individuals and depend on native hair density, hair calibre, donor supply and aftercare. Graft counts reflect each patient's own hair loss at the time and are not a fixed recommendation; your plan requires an in-person assessment by the doctor.
