AB  - Introduction: A major goal in constructing a hairline with hair transplantation is to achieve a natural appearance. Patients and surgeons often strive to create a symmetric hairline in terms of height and recession depth. In this study, the authors demonstrate that a component of the natural hairline is actually asymmetry of the fronto-temporal recession depth.Methods: The study looked at 100 male patients seeking reconstruction of the frontal hairline, including the fronto-temporal recessions.Results and Discussion: Asymmetry in the temporal area was noted in almost all patients.
