Hairline Hair Transplant Case for a 40-Year-Old Man from Macau | Two-Angle Record

age 40 Male

A 40-year-old man from Macau came to Dr. Wen-Yi Wu for a hair transplant assessment because his frontal hairline was receding and the outline on both sides was incomplete. He hoped to improve his frontal line. After treatment the case was recorded from the front and from above the forehead; use the sliders below to compare before treatment and later.

The following shows the condition before treatment and later from two angles, front and forehead overhead. The actual area, hairline design and graft allocation still need to be assessed by the doctor in person, based on the degree of hair loss, native hair condition and donor supply at the back of the scalp.

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, camera distance, head angle 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.

How Is a Hairline Transplant Assessed at 40?

Age alone cannot determine the treatment approach. The doctor considers how far the hairline has receded, native hair density, hair calibre, donor supply at the back of the scalp and the risk of future hair loss, then discusses a suitable hairline outline and allocation for each area.

Want to know about your own hairline and what area could be planned?

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.
