Low hair line can be the new term for many but these days especially youngsters like to have low or flat hairlines. It means the patients go for the hair transplant to get the hairline that is lower than their existing natural hairline. Studies have revealed that creating low hairlines is the common trend noticed in youngsters of India as in few areas most of the hair transplants are performed to design the low or flat hairlines.
Let us understand whether this trend of creating low or flat hairline with hair transplant in Ludhiana is right or not? What can be the challenges in designing the low hairline?
Challenges for creating low hairline
Initially, this creation of flat hairline is possible only with the 1- haired or single follicular unit techniques of hair restoration means only with the individual extraction and transplantation of the follicles it is possible to design the lowered frontal hairline that could suit to the candidate.
Patients generally choose the hair transplant after the abrupt hair fall so they already have the large portion to cover up with loss resistant follicles and a lesser portion of available donor follicles and in this case if the patient will desire for the low-level hairline means the transplantation of grafts will start from the very low level and will continue up to the bald portions of the scalp then it can be difficult to fulfill the requirement of grafts. In most of the cases patient run out of the grafts when they choose the low or flat hairlines.
Hair transplantation is the permanent method for hair restoration so if the young patients will go for flat or low hairline then it may possible that in young age they look attractive with low hairline but in the older age their hairstyle will not look suitable. They will not look good in old age with the low hairline and at that time they will not have any option to correct their transplanted hairline. Thus the patient should choose the hairline that could look good in the age of 25 and even in the age of 65.
Even the low or flat hairline does not appear natural after the surgery although it can give denser look to the scalps but cannot appear perfectly natural.
While creating low or flat hairline requirement of grafts get increased so it may also add to the hair transplant cost in India with much amount as generally the cost of hair transplant is calculated by multiplying the cost per graft with the total number of grafts transplanted.
