Hair plays a defining role in personal identity, and it can be a powerful expression of authenticity. Gender-affirming hair transplants offer customized solutions to help individuals achieve the hairline, density, or facial hair that aligns with their gender identity.
About Gender-Affirming Hair Transplants
Gender-affirming hair transplants are designed to create hairlines, scalp density, or facial hair that reflect an individual's desired gender expression.
- Hair Transplant Treatments for Transgender Women
For transgender women, gender-affirming hair transplant treatments often focus on feminizing the hairline to create a softer, rounded, and more traditionally feminine appearance. This involves reshaping or lowering the hairline using techniques such as Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) or Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT). By carefully designing the hairline to complement facial features, this procedure helps enhance a more feminine aesthetic and align outward appearance with gender identity.
- Hair Transplant Treatments for Transgender Men
For transgender men, gender-affirming hair transplant treatments often involve the creation of natural-looking facial hair to achieve traditionally masculine features. Procedures like beard, mustache, and sideburn transplants are tailored to meet individual preferences for density, shape, and placement. Using techniques such as FUE and FUT, hair follicles are harvested from a donor area and implanted into the desired facial regions, following the natural growth patterns for seamless results.
