What Is Forehead Reduction?
Forehead Reduction, also known as hairline lowering surgery, is a cosmetic procedure designed to reduce the height of the forehead by advancing the hairline forward. Typically, the hairline can be lowered by about 2 to 3 cm in a single session, creating a more balanced and harmonious facial appearance. This procedure is especially suitable for individuals with a naturally high hairline or disproportionate forehead. Unlike hair transplantation, which adds hair gradually, forehead reduction provides immediate and noticeable results by repositioning the scalp. Advanced techniques such as the trichophytic incision allow hair to grow through the scar, helping to conceal it for a more natural outcome.
How It Works
Forehead Reduction involves making a precise incision along the natural hairline. The scalp is then carefully loosened and advanced forward to a lower position, while excess forehead skin is removed. The doctor then closes the incision using techniques that allow hair to grow through the scar, minimising its visibility. The procedure is typically performed in a single session under local anesthesia. In some cases, it may be combined with a brow lift to further enhance facial balance. As healing progresses, the hairline appears naturally lower, improving overall facial proportions with long-lasting results.
