If you’re a woman with a high forehead, hair grafting might seem like the go-to fix—but it often isn’t the best choice. Many women see better, more natural results with halo surgery, also known as hairline lowering surgery.

This quick, 60–90 minute procedure creates a softer, rounder, more feminine hairline—with immediate results. Unlike grafting, Halo surgery offers lasting contouring and density without months of waiting. Many of our patients come to us after failed grafts—proving it’s not always the right solution. Consider Halo surgery before committing to hair transplants.

Just because hair transplants are common in men doesn’t mean the same approach works for women. In fact, female hairlines are fundamentally different—they’re usually softer and framed by fine, baby hairs, unlike the receding patterns seen in men.


Transplanting thick donor hairs into a delicate female hairline often creates an unnatural look, what we call “planting trees between roses.” The result? Styling issues and dissatisfaction. A clinic experienced in male transplants isn’t necessarily the right fit for female patients. Women need a specialized, artistic approach to hair restoration.

Hair transplants might promise “natural results,” but great outcomes come from repetition and specialization. Just like in sports, mastery comes from doing the same thing—over and over again.


Most clinics specialize in male hair restoration. But when it comes to female-specific procedures like halo surgery, very few have real expertise. In fact, the list of world-renowned clinics focused solely on women is nearly non-existent. At our practice, we perform over 200 Halo surgeries a year—because experience is everything when it comes to delivering consistently beautiful, natural results for women.

Many women come to us after undergoing multiple hair transplant sessions, each involving full-day surgeries and months of recovery only to be disappointed with the results. Even after two rounds of treatment, hair grafts rarely match the natural density of your scalp.


With Halo surgery, we work with what nature gave you. By gently moving your existing hairline forward and removing a thin strip of skin, we achieve natural density in just 60 - 90 minutes, all while you're asleep. No waiting, no second sessions. Just immediate, natural-looking results that hair grafting simply can't match.

Yes, any surgery carries risk—but not all scars are the same. At our clinic, we perform around 200 Halo surgeries a year, and we’ve developed techniques where hair grows through the scar, making it nearly invisible. It's this level of detail, down to discovering previously undocumented anatomy is what sets our results apart.


We see women every day who feel self-conscious in photos, avoid swimming, or hide under hats. After Halo surgery, their confidence returns allowing them to wear ponytails in the rain, smile freely. That’s why we’re passionate about this procedure. Hair grafting isn’t the only option. Halo surgery is often the better, more natural choice for women.
