Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the results of two grafting methods to manage CLs in the FHL of women.
BACKGROUND: The present study was performed to investigate the results of two grafting methods to manage cowlicks (CLs) in the frontal hairline of women.
METHODS: Patients were categorized into two groups based on the grafting method: the matching with the original hair direction (MOD) group and the matching with the CL hair direction (MCD) group. Satisfaction ratings were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS: Among 80 patients, 77 had a single CL and 3 had a double CL. In the MOD group, 7 of 12 (58.3%) patients underwent a touch-up procedure for density enhancement with an average of 123 follicular units; the average patient and physician satisfaction ratings were 4.84 and 4.60, respectively. In the MCD group, 7 of 68 (10.3%) patients underwent a touch-up procedure for density enhancement around the CL; the average patient and physician satisfaction ratings were 4.64 and 4.50, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: In female hairline correction surgery, the surgeon must choose between MOD and MCD by considering the location, shape, and pattern of the CL; the facial shape; and the patient\'s preference. Delicate graft placement is required to obtain natural-looking results.
METHODS: This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article. For a full description of these Evidence-Based Medicine ratings, please refer to the Table of Contents or the online Instructions to Authors. www.springer.com/00266 .

摘要：
目的：调查两种移植方法在女性FHL中管理CLs的结果。
背景：本研究旨在调查两种移植方法在女性额叶发际线中管理牛舔（CLs）的结果。
方法：根据移植方法将患者分为两组：与原始毛发方向匹配（MOD）组和与CL毛发方向匹配（MCD）组。比较两组的满意度评分。
结果：在80例患者中，77个有一个单CL，3个有一个双CL。在MOD组,12例患者中有7例（58.3％）接受了密度增强的修补程序，平均为123个卵泡单位；患者和医师的平均满意度分别为4.84和4.60。在MCD组中,68例患者中有7例（10.3％）接受了CL周围密度增强的修补程序；患者和医师的平均满意度分别为4.64和4.50。
结论：在女性发际线矫正手术中，外科医生必须通过考虑位置在MOD和MCD之间进行选择，形状,和CL的模式；面部形状；以及患者的偏好。需要精细的移植物放置才能获得自然的结果。
方法：本期刊要求作者为每篇文章分配一定程度的证据。对于这些循证医学评级的完整描述，请参阅目录或在线作者说明。www.springer.com/00266.
