Transgender hair transplant surgery is a viable option for male to female (m2f) transgender people who are seeking a more feminine hairline. The procedure can help to lower the hairline, create a more rounded shape, and fill in any areas of thinning or baldness.
Key Factors About MtF Hair Loss Surgery
Male and female hairlines differ in terms of position, shape, and hair flow.
Hairline transplant surgery can be used to remove the "M" shape characteristic of a male hairline and create a more even, feminine hairline.
Follicular unit excision (FUE) or follicular unit transplantation (FUT) hair transplant techniques can be used to lower the hairline.
Hair transplant surgery is a relatively safe and effective procedure, but there are some potential risks and side effects, such as bruising, swelling, and discomfort.

Transgender hair surgery at Elite Hair Restoration
At Elite Hair Restoration, all of our hair transplantation surgeries are performed by GMC registered doctors and we perform both FUT or FUE hair transplantation surgery so you have both options available to you to obtain the best possible result from your Hair Transplant Surgery.
You can read more about FUT and FUE here. Often FUT is the preferred method for MtF patients that have already grown out their hair as we do not need to shave large areas of the donor region around the back and sides of the scalp. Needles to say, FUE is still an option should this not be an issue. FUE is the newer surgical method available but both treatments leave patients with a natural and realistic hair restoration result.
We require all of our patients to visit us for a no-obligation consultation before we can offer you a date for your treatment. Our consultations are private and confidential and give you the opportunity to meet our team and feel comfortable in our clinic.
During your consultation, your doctor will be able to assess your current hair and discuss exactly what you want to get out of a hair transplant. Our doctors will discuss what they expect your results to be like and answer any questions you may have. During your personalized consultation, your doctor will also be able to give you an accurate price for your treatment.
