Finally a thick hairline without a receding hairline
Unpopular with women and men: a bald forehead. Unfortunately, hair loss that leads to a bald forehead is often difficult to conceal. For many, it hinders a carefree life. Whether as a receding hairline or a receding hairline - this form of baldness is unfortunately particularly noticeable.
But what is the best way to combat the thinning areas? Our experts will be happy to ensure that you can feel completely comfortable with your hair again with a hair transplant. A one-time hair transplant is enough for a permanent solution and a better quality of life.
What are the causes of hair loss?
Hair loss often manifests itself very differently in women and men. While men mostly suffer from hereditary hair loss (androgenetic alopecia), women more often struggle with diffuse hair loss. This manifests itself in even hair loss all over the head. Hereditary hair loss, on the other hand, occurs primarily in the area of the crown or hairline - baldness develops on the forehead and the well-known receding hairline. Hormonal changes, such as pregnancy or menopause, can also lead to changes in hair density.

The bald forehead hair transplant at Moser Medical
When performing a hair transplant, particular care must be taken to choose the position of the new hairline so that it corresponds to the natural development even in more mature years. When treating bald foreheads, the hair surgeons at Moser Medical create a natural-looking, irregular (feathery) hairline with fine, individual hair roots that become increasingly stronger and denser towards the back.
Our decades of experience allow us to know how the patient's hair will develop over time. This knowledge provides the basis for being able for a hair design that will remain aesthetically even in old age.
How does a hair transplant work?
Two methods can be used for a hair transplant to correct a bald forehead. With the FUE technique (Follicular Unit Extraction), individual hair roots are removed; the grafts are then transplanted to the desired location. With the FUT method (Follicular Unit Transplantation), on the other hand, whole strips of hair are used for the hair transplant. The hair is removed from the back of the head. This is where the hair grows particularly strongly and for a lifetime!
To correct a bald forehead so that it looks as natural as possible, our specialist staff recommends a hair transplant using the FUE technique.
With this, the donor hair can either be shortened to around 1mm or the so-called FUE Long Hair method is used. The advantage of this is that no shaving is necessary in the donor area. The hair is then removed with a gentle and special HyRO instrument and the forehead area is prepared for the transplant with minimal openings. Tiny scars remain on the scalp, which are visible as small red dots and heal very quickly. After the hair transplant, there is a natural resting phase - the final result can be seen after 8 to 10 months.
If I had known earlier how easy and uncomplicated a hair transplant is, I would have come to Moser Medical years ago. The treatment definitely brought more well-being into my life!!
Frequently asked questions about hair transplantation
Is the hair transplant performed under anesthesia?
No, only local anesthesia is required for the procedure. Patients are responsive throughout the entire treatment and can, for example, listen to music on their iPod or eat and drink something during short breaks if they wish. Of course, trips to the toilet are also possible. Many patients report that they found the treatment to be just as relaxing as a more extensive visit to the hairdresser.
Do scars remain after a hair transplant?
No large scars remain; only point-shaped micro-scars on the back of the head.
The experts at Moser Medical carry out the hair transplant largely without scars. The F.U.E. technique in particular is minimally invasive - so very gentle on the skin and tissue.
The reason is the ultra-modern HyRO device, which has a very fine tip of only 0.8 to 0.9 mm. In contrast to classic FUE devices, this does not rotate on its own axis, but moves in a semicircular oscillation. At the end of the tip there is a rounded curve instead of sharp knives. The instrument penetrates less deeply into the skin when extracting the hair. HyRO thus minimizes the risk of damage to hair root units. Healing is promoted and the formation of small micro-scars is reduced.
How long does a hair transplant last? And how long does the hair stay?
The results of a hair transplant are permanent.
It is good to know that the hair root goes into a natural rest period after the hair transplant and the freshly transplanted donor hair falls out first. The hair roots that are taken from the donor area at the back of the head form new hair again. After that, the hair grows back and strong.
What is the best place to have a hair transplant?
It is advisable to have it done by experienced specialists or teams of doctors who are specialists in this area. There are always companies that offer hair transplants under the motto "health trip" (e.g. hair transplant Turkey). Such trips are often stressful, which can also have a negative impact on the healing process. We therefore recommend treatments in Germany or Austria. Moser Medical has been performing hair surgery successfully for 45 years.
Demanding medical treatments require experienced specialists. Specialists in aesthetic and plastic surgery and specially trained medical teams pay careful attention to the highest medical standards and have the know-how to carry out a hair transplant successfully. Moser Medical has performed over 35,000 treatments in this area.
You should consider the following criteria when making your choice:
Does the doctor specialize in hair transplants?
How many treatments has he performed?
Does the doctor offer care/monitoring after the treatment?
Get an idea of the clinic and the treatment rooms beforehand: How does the equipment look like? Is hygiene a priority?
How long does a hair transplant remain visible?
Many people want to know how long the traces of a hair transplant are visible. The experts at Moser Medical ensure that hair transplantation is almost scar-free, but the hair is shortened.
With the FUE technique, the hair on the back of the head is shaved to one millimeter; the partial shave can be easily transformed into a stylish hairstyle, especially for men. In the first few days after the FUE treatment, small, pinpoint micro-scars are visible. A groundbreaking method is the FUE Long Hair method, which means that shaving is not necessary at all.
With the FUT technique (strip method), the hair in the small area of the donor site is shortened to 3 millimeters, but the area is well covered by the rest of the hair and is therefore barely visible. Of course, it is possible that relatives and colleagues will notice the shaved area in the first few weeks after the treatment.
Does exiting hair need to be shaved prior to the hair transplant?
The need to shave the donor area (back of the head) is primarily determined by the extraction technique chosen. With the FUT technique (“strip method”), a narrow strip is removed from the hairline (extraction site) - only in this small area is the hair cut back to a length of approx. 3 mm. The rest of the hair is not affected. Your hair as a whole is completely unchanged after extraction using the strip technique, as the remaining hair covers this narrow line.
For FUE treatments (“individual hair extraction”), a complete shave of the back of the head is usually necessary, as this improves the quality of the extraction and prevents damage to the extracted hair root units. If desired, Moser Medical patients can also opt for the “partial shave” option. With the new Long-hair method, a hair transplant without shaving is possible.
