Men often develop MPB (Male Pattern Baldness) leading to higher (raised) hairline. Some men have naturally raised frontal hair line. As compared to men, females have lower hairline, but more important factor is the difference in the pattern of hairline. Females have frontal hair line which is higher in the middle while male frontal hairline is lower in middle. If we look on sides of the frontal hairline (also referred to as corners or temples), female hairline have lower corners while a male hairline is typically characterised by higher corners.
Owing to higher corners& lower middle portion, male frontal line is “M” shaped while owing to lower corners and higher middle pattern a frontal hairline gives a pattern of inverted U (shape).
Majority of the trans-women only need to fill angles (corners).
Those who have higher hairline and typical ‘M’ pattern may need to lower the hairline and convert M pattern into inverted ‘U’ pattern frontal hairline.
Hair Transplant
– Main aim of hair transplant remains to get a hairline which is natural without any noticeable signs of procedure. In other words, hairline looks so natural that nobody can notice that hair transplant has been done. For this graft direction and angle of individual hair consistent with its location on hairline is extremely important. The hairs in middle part have forward direction while on sides the angle goes outwards.The follicular units needed for hairline should be of utmost fine quality with one or two hairs in it.Out of these two options, Hair transplant gives more natural hairline without any scar.
A trans- woman, may suffer from MPB like a normal man under the influence of DHT, and may have any of the Norwood patterns.
Treatment / Solution: For a trans-women ( M to F) for Hair Pattern.
