snoopkhan Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Hey guys, wondering if anyone here can suggest a HT physician that can do temples well - im open to FUT/FUE - however for my temples wanted to soften the look with body hair (i have plenty on legs, arm, stomach). Im located in Ontario Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted July 20, 2020 Administrators Share Posted July 20, 2020 Body hair is not acceptable on the temples, it would not look natural.

Im located in Ontario Canada. I see where ur going with this but its not that easy. Although, Dr. Umar uses body hair from all over the body to place in the temples he claims. He does a lot of BHT tho. It grows at a different rate than head hair and isn't really optimal as stated above. Its more about the skill of the HT surgeon and what angle and density he or she places the grafts in and around the temple to give that softer look or illusion of a softer look. U cant just take a few hundred soft hairs from ur forearm that may happen to be very light and place in ur temples. Its just not that simple and is pretty much never done. Chest hairs for density have worked well when being placed behind the hairline but hairs from other parts of the body have very long Anagen, Catagen and Telegen phases and just don't take well on the scalp. https://dru.com/why-most-clinics-dont-prioritize-hair-restoration-for-the-temples/ Edited July 22, 2020 by GNX1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrTBarghouthi Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Temple point reconstruction is best done using refined single hair grafts and an almost flat angle following the natural direction that yours have. I would not recommend body hair for this area of the face. Dr. Taleb Barghouthi approved and recommended on the Hair Transplant Network. You can schedule a virtual consultation with me here.

snoopkhan Posted August 11, 2020 Author Share Posted August 11, 2020 Thanks everyone. Deciding to use donor hair for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Sean Posted August 24, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 24, 2020 Yaar body hair is terrible for front facing hair but only few surgeons who Extract this type of hair and have artistic abilities may be able to assist. Ask and get consults from like doctors Col, Bisanga, Mwamba, Dr Cooley, etc to see what they say. In Canada, I haven’t heard of any but may be worth to contact Hasson Wong to see.

Moderators Al - Moderator Posted August 24, 2020 Moderators Share Posted August 24, 2020 I'm also seriously thinking of getting some temple peaks and hairline work done using body hair as well, but I keep hearing everyone say not to use it there. The problem is I don't have any scalp donor to use. I've looked at some of Dr Umar's work and it looks like it can be done. Sorry that didn't really help you any, but know you are not the only one tempted to try this. Al Forum Moderator (formerly BeHappy) I am a paid forum moderator for hairrestorationnetwork.com.
