One of the leading transgender hair restoration centers in Los Angeles is the Beverly Hills Hair Restoration. Many challenges surfaced in the hair transplants of transgender patients due to the difference in MTF hairline and vice versa. Still, Dr. John Kahen used his artistry and technical skills to deliver outstanding results to his patients. As a result, he has numerous MTF hair regrowth and FTM transgender hair transplant to his credit.
The most important solution to your hair loss starts with reserving your consultation.
A common condition linked to male hormones which hair transplants can treat is male pattern hair loss. With the help of hair restoration techniques that includes Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT) grafting and lowering the hairline, our surgeon can rectify the following areas:
Thinning areas of the scalp
Bald patches
Bald spots
Receding hairlines
Hairlines with a “masculine” shape
Too high hairlines 
In simple words, it refers to the hair transplantation procedure that will be designed in such a way that it caters to the transition in your mind. All those looking out for the transition from female to male (FTM) and male to female (MTF) can resort to hair transplant surgery and take advantage of the advanced techniques used during the FUE hair transplant to get a natural look. Likewise, people who want to get rid of high foreheads and gender dysphoria related to hairlines can give a thought to hair transplantation. For transgender patients, hair restoration surgery seems to be a life-changing procedure. It doesn't matter whether you are just commencing with your journey or have considered this long before; you can use this transformation procedure to help you coordinate your physical aesthetics with your gender identity.
Dr. John Kahen feels that this single procedure is enough to change your outlook towards life. He, along with his crew of experts at Beverly hills hair restoration, will be working closely to work out a treatment plan for you so that you can be comfortable during the transition procedure.
The only question in people's minds is- What is MTF transgender hair transplant? There is a huge distinction between the male and female hairline variations. Due to this, it is noticed that there is a heavy majority for male to female transplants these days. This shift in the hair transplant has made it more challenging to achieve the best results. The sole aim of male-to-female hair transplant is to get feminine looks by bringing back thick and healthy hair. With FUE and FUT procedure assistance, it is easy to achieve the male to female transplant. The procedure followed over here will increase your hair density. Besides this, it will help in lowering down the hairline for a more feminine look.
But during the process of transforming male to female, there can be some opposite reactions also. The surgeon will make some estrogen levels, which can seriously affect the DHT on hair.
Some males have male pattern baldness before going for this transition. In such a scenario, the treatment will leave people with thin regions on the scalp, and on the worse, a hairline will depict a receding male. Fortunately, you can rectify your hairline with the help of a revolutionary method of FUE hair transplant and lend it a more feminine touch. Those men who go through baldness tend to have an M-shaped hairline after the restoration.
One concern depicted by all the female to male hair transplant patients is that hormonal medicines prove ineffective in catering to their needs. The results are pretty different from what they expected. They fail to realize that there cannot be any better therapy than hormonal therapy to boost their hair growth. It is pretty normal to have hair loss. Usually, all-female to male hair transplant patients feel that FUE or FUT will be the best option to eliminate thinning hairlines caused by increased hormone production.
There will be a change in the looks for all those patients undergoing this transition due to the male hormones. This sole reason is enough to change your overall appearance. There are chances of you being prone to the male pattern baldness or alopecia after this. Mainly, male genetics are responsible for this. Your entire hair growth cycle will be changed, leading to severe hair loss.
In female to male transition, hair transplantation surgery also proved helpful as this helps you with your beard and eyebrows. Having a beard and eyebrows will completely alter your look and play a magical role in your transition. It can have adverse effects also like patchy hairs or unnatural results but in rare cases only.

As the hair restoration surgery is according to the individual's needs and concerns, the procedure will differ based on the techniques used during the treatment. Before starting your treatment, the surgeon will duly inform you about the type of anesthesia given to you, the length of the procedure, the entire process of surgery, and what to expect after the surgery. For the best and natural-looking results, some patients may need multiple sessions of the transplant procedure. You can bestow your complete faith in the surgical expertise and aesthetic sensibilities of Dr. John Kahen to give you the natural look you desire. Along with this procedure, the emphasis will be on creating a hairline that is flatter, lower, and rounder in shape.
The morning after the surgery:
One cannot rinse or style the hairs after the very next morning of the surgery as the hairs are still loose and will fall out. Your hair will take some time to restore.
Make sure to keep the bandage in place for a minimum of two days. You can get back to your back after three days of the surgery. But it will be better to take off from your work for at least a week until fully recovered.
You can remove your dressing and rinse your head gently after three days of your surgery. First, refrain from standing under the shower jet. Instead of this, you can use a cloth piece and little shampoo to apply over the treated area. Next, with the help of a soft towel, dry your hair gently. But while doing so, make sure not to rub your hairs.
During the first week, also avoid any heavy exercises and physical exertion to let your body heal. It reduces the risk of bleeding.
During the restoration procedure, there are chances that you may develop some of the scabs or go through minor inflammation in the treated area. But no worries, as scabs will vanish within 7 days only.
You are advised to dye your hair after it's been two months of your treatment.
Do not expect the results of the transgender hair transplant to be immediately apparent after the procedure, and have some patience as the follicles go through their growth cycle. Your new hair growth will commence after the follicles have ended their resting stage, and it's been three months since your treatment. There are chances that your hair growth may take around five months to mature. The full results of the procedure may become apparent after one year of the treatment. Whether you need any additional sessions to achieve your desired goals is determined by Dr. John Kahen. For some patients, Smart PRP therapy can also be an option to increase their hair growth and the quality of results. If there is any scarring due to the procedure, then you may choose to undergo additional treatments for that.
As it is said, a picture speaks thousands of words; the same is true of the hair transplant procedure also. Therefore, to ensure that you will get the best results of the procedure, we advise you to ask your surgeon to show you the transgender MTF before and after pictures of the clients who have undergone similar treatments and got the best results. Then, after witnessing the images, you can see the wonders performed by the surgeons.
If you are looking forward to rinsing your hair after the surgery, then you should wait for a while. For the first few weeks, use little shampoo only.
You can join your routine work after three days of your surgery.
Refrain from brushing or combing the new grafts for around three weeks.
Also, avoid wearing hats or pullover shirts until suggested by your doctor.
For a week, avoid hard exercise or any workout.
If you notice some hair falling out, no need to bother about it as it is part of a procedure. There is a possibility that the transplanted hair might not grow as you expected it to be for about a month.
After being done with the treatment, you will start to witness its results in around 90 days. Initially, you will see that the newly transplanted hair is falling out. But no worries, as it is common for people to experience this as the roots have been set under the skin, it will take time for the hair to grow. You will notice a rise in your hair follicles by around 70% within six months. As far as the rest of the hairs are concerned, it will take a year to depict full growth.
If we go by the reviews given by most of our patients, then the hair transplant is not at all painful. We use several medications and local anesthetics to comfort and relax the patient during the treatment.
The answer is yes. The platelet-rich plasma treatment aids in improving your blood flow and can speed up the healing. Read more about PRP on our blog.
