When a high hairline makes the forehead look wide, or an M-shaped hairline makes it look angular, a person can easily appear harsh or older. Women in particular tend to be more concerned about such issues. Recently, hair transplant has been drawing attention as a way to improve an unsatisfactory hairline. While it was previously performed for the purpose of treating hair loss, it is now also being applied to refine a congenitally wide forehead or an uneven hairline.
Hairline hair transplant is a hair transplant procedure in which hair follicles are harvested from the occipital or temporal areas, where genetic hair loss does not occur, and transplanted to the hairline; it plays a very significant role in changing the overall image of the face. However, hair transplant surgery is not simply a matter of cutting hair and attaching it. It is a highly demanding procedure that requires transplanting between existing hairs, and in women, unlike men, the hair in the occipital area that needs to be harvested is often thin, so even greater care is required.
Recently, non-incision hair transplant, in which hair is transplanted directly without making an incision in the occipital area, has been drawing attention. In particular, there is a strong preference for the non-shaven method, in which hair follicles are harvested without shaving the head. This is because there is no visible sign of a hair transplant from shaving, and there are no concerns about scarring or pain from an incision. In addition, in non-shaven, non-incision hairline hair transplant, only healthy hair follicles are carefully selected and transplanted while the hairstyle, hair direction, thickness, and other factors are visually checked, so the graft survival rate is excellent and natural results can be achieved.
Yoo Hwa-jung, Chief Director of Modi Hair Plant, advised, “Because non-incision, non-shaven hair transplant is a highly demanding procedure, the expertise of the performing medical team is more important than anything else,” adding, “Using tools such as a patented clipper designed exclusively for non-incision, non-shaven procedures can help achieve a natural hair transplant.” The Director further added, “It is important to choose a clinic that can increase the graft survival rate through systematic aftercare and ongoing regular check-ups following the transplant.”
