A high hairline is often a sign that we have inherited the so-called baldness gene from our family members. Problems with baldness in many patients begin at a relatively young age. In the case of their occurrence, time plays an extremely important role, because by quickly finding the cause of hair loss, for example, the implementation of drug treatment can be effective. Unfortunately, in the case of some types of alopecia, drugs may prove ineffective.
If the hair loss problem appeared on our mother’s or father’s side, there is a high probability that it will also affect us. The earlier the process of hair loss begins, the greater the chance that baldness will advance to an advanced stage while we are still young, so we should never delay visiting an experienced doctor.

Androgenic alopecia or maturing hairline
Noticing changes along the hairline is often a sign that we have inherited the so-called baldness gene from our family members. Androgenic alopecia[1] causes deterioration of the hair on the entire head – it becomes thinner and finer, so it is important to remember that a change in the hairline alone is not always synonymous with male pattern baldness. Exceptions include, for example, young men. In their bodies, due to an unstable hormonal balance, temporary hair problems can occur, the phenomenon of the so-called maturing hairline (it usually subsides with the passage of time).
The stages and patterns of androgenic alopecia are classified on the Norwood scale, where NW2 is attributed to minimal hair loss and NW7 means hair loss all the way to the top of the head. It is important never to underestimate hair loss. If the source of the problem is recognized relatively early, it is possible to stop the process and maintain healthy hair for many years. There are treatments to which we can subject the scalp – such measures are effective and can not only inhibit the aforementioned process, but also have a beneficial effect on the growth of our hair.
High forehead – when a woman comes to the doctor for a hair transplant
Women interested in hair transplant surgery most often want to lower the entire front hairline to lower a high forehead. Most often the high hairline is not due to baldness, it simply formed that way during puberty. The procedure is feasible even if hair has never grown in the area before.
High hairline – Online consultation
To find the source of the problems associated with a changing hairline, we should contact a doctor as soon as possible. The first step can be an online consultation, for example. It is advisable to send photos of your head by email (at Kierach Medical Clinic this can be done using the contact form), already in the return response we should receive a preliminary diagnosis of the problem and a proposed solution.
Male pattern baldness progresses gradually, so the option of permanent hair restoration is not always the best option. Creating a very low, often youthful hairline may look good in a person before the age of 30, but in a mature man it often gives an unnatural impression. When making such decisions, the experience of the doctor is extremely important. Only a doctor with years of experience can predict the behavior of hair loss in the future and design a hairline that is appropriate to the patient’s age and facial shape.

FUE transplant – why does it work for women?
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) hair transplantation has revolutionized the approach to treating baldness, becoming one of the most commonly chosen techniques by both men and women. Although baldness is mainly associated with men, women also struggle with thinning hair – whether due to androgenetic alopecia, telogenetic alopecia or other factors. Why exactly does FUE transplantation work well for ladies? Here are the key reasons why this method is winning them over.
1 Minimal invasiveness and no scarring – high foreheads are a thing of the past
Women are often concerned about visible marks from treatments, especially on the head. After all, hair is our calling card. FUE transplantation involves the individual harvesting of individual hair follicles with microscopic instruments, without cutting a strip of skin (as in the FUT method). As a result, it leaves no linear scars – only small, pinpoint marks that heal quickly and are invisible under the hair.
2. precision and natural effects
Hair in women often thins evenly throughout the head or in specific zones, such as the parting or temples. FUE transplantation allows for precise placement of grafts, adjusting to the natural direction and density of the hair. The result? The hairstyle looks natural, without the artificial “doll’s hair” effect. For women who value subtlety and aesthetics, this is a key advantage.
3. shorter recovery time
Women with active lifestyles – work, family, meetings – appreciate that FUE does not require a long layoff. After the procedure, the scalp heals in 7-10 days, and patients can return to daily activities in as little as 2-3 days. The lack of stitches and minimal discomfort make the FUE graft comfortable and practical.
4. flexibility to combat different types of baldness
Female pattern baldness differs from male pattern baldness – it rarely involves complete hair loss and more often includes diffuse thinning. FUE transplantation works well in such cases, as it allows to replenish specific areas without shaving the entire head. Some clinics use a “no-shave FUE” technique, where no hair is shaved at all, and long hairs are taken. The downside of this technique is that only up to 800 hair follicles can be taken.
5. safety and effectiveness
The FUE method is safe. Harvesting follicles from the back of the head – where the hair is hormone-resistant – produces permanent results. New hair grows naturally and does not fall out, giving patients long-term confidence.
FUE transplantation is gaining popularity among women because it combines effectiveness with discretion. Ladies appreciate the lack of visible scars, fast healing and the ability to return to normal life without a long break. In addition, the growing number of clinics specializing in the method and positive testimonials from female patients on social media are building confidence in FUE as a tailor-made solution.
Are there any restrictions?
FUE requires an adequate amount of donor hair, so it may be less effective in women with very advanced baldness. It is crucial to consult with a physician to assess whether the method will meet expectations.
